[PATCH v25 00/30] Control-flow Enforcement: Shadow Stack

[Yu-cheng Yu <yu-cheng.yu@intel.com>]

Control-flow Enforcement (CET) is a new Intel processor feature that blocks
return/jump-oriented programming attacks.  Details are in "Intel 64 and
IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual" [1].

CET can protect applications and the kernel.  This series enables only
application-level protection, and has three parts:

  - Shadow stack [2],
  - Indirect branch tracking [3], and
  - Selftests [4].

I have run tests on these patches for quite some time, and they have been
very stable.  Linux distributions with CET are available now, and Intel
processors with CET are already on the market.  It would be nice if CET
support can be accepted into the kernel.  I will be working to address any
issues should they come up.

Changes in v25:
- Remove Kconfig X86_CET and software-defined feature flag X86_FEATURE_CET.
  Use X86_SHADOW_STACK and X86_FEATURE_SHSTK directly.  Update related
  areas accordingly.
- Patch #16: Make same changes to do_huge_pmd_numa_page() as to
  do_numa_page().
- Patch #25: Update signal handling, use restorer address already
  retrieved, update MSR restoring code.
- Smaller changes are called out in each patch.
- Rebase to Linus tree v5.12-rc7.

[4] I am holding off the selftests changes and working to get Reviewed-by's.

[5] The kernel ptrace patch is tested with an Intel-internal updated GDB.
    I am holding off the kernel ptrace patch to re-test it with my earlier
    patch for fixing regset holes.
