  Hi,

This series implements Shadow Stacks for userspace using x86's Control-flow 
Enforcement Technology (CET). CET consists of two related security features: 
Shadow Stacks and Indirect Branch Tracking. This series implements just the 
Shadow Stack part of this feature, and just for userspace.

The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against return 
oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a secondary (shadow) 
stack using a special memory type that has protections against modification. 
When executing a CALL instruction, the processor pushes the return address to 
both the normal stack and to the special permissioned shadow stack. Upon RET, 
the processor pops the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack 
copy. For more details, see the coverletter from v1 [0].


I humbly think this is looking decent at this point, please consider applying.

Again there were some smaller changes (logged in the patches). The more
noteworthy changes were:
 - Separate Shadow stack from IBT in kernel APIs. This involves renaming the
   arch_prctl()s. And changing the ptrace cet regset interface to only expose
   the SSP, and not any IBT bits.
 - Handle 32 bit case more completely. (see commit log of “x86: Prevent 32 bit
   operations for 64 bit shstk tasks” for the details)
 - Drop elf header bit filtering compatibility patch for now, per Linus. [1]
 - Break apart _PAGE_COW patch for bisectability reasons.

I left the Tested-by tags that were already in place, testers please re-test.

Previous version [2].

Thanks,

Rick
