[PATCHSET v10 sched_ext/for-6.19] Add a deadline server for sched_ext tasks

by Andrea Righi

sched_ext tasks can be starved by long-running RT tasks, especially since RT throttling was replaced by deadline servers to boost only SCHED_NORMAL tasks. Several users in the community have reported issues with RT stalling sched_ext tasks. This is fairly common on distributions or environments where applications like video compositors, audio services, etc. run as RT tasks by default. Example trace (showing a per-CPU kthread stalled due to the sway Wayland compositor running as an RT task): runnable task stall (kworker/0:0[106377] failed to run for 5.043s) ... CPU 0 : nr_run=3 flags=0xd cpu_rel=0 ops_qseq=20646200 pnt_seq=45388738 curr=sway[994] class=rt_sched_class R kworker/0:0[106377] -5043ms scx_state/flags=3/0x1 dsq_flags=0x0 ops_state/qseq=0/0 sticky/holding_cpu=-1/-1 dsq_id=0x8000000000000002 dsq_vtime=0 slice=20000000 cpus=01 This is often perceived as a bug in the BPF schedulers, but in reality schedulers can't do much: RT tasks run outside their control and can potentially consume 100% of the CPU bandwidth. Fix this by adding a sched_ext deadline server, so that sched_ext tasks are also boosted and do not suffer starvation. Two kselftests are also provided to verify the starvation fixes and bandwidth allocation is correct. == Highlights in this version == - wait for inactive_task_timer() to fire before removing the bandwidth reservation (Juri/Peter: please check if this new dl_server_remove_params() implementation makes sense to you) - removed the explicit dl_server_stop() from dequeue_task_scx() and rely on the delayed stop behavior (Juri/Peter: ditto) This patchset is also available in the following git branch: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arighi/linux.git scx-dl-server Changes in v10: - reordered patches to better isolate sched_ext changes vs sched/deadline changes (Andrea Righi) - define ext_server only with CONFIG_SCHED_CLASS_EXT=y (Andrea Righi) - add WARN_ON_ONCE(!cpus) check in dl_server_apply_params() (Andrea Righi) - wait for inactive_task_timer to fire before removing the bandwidth reservation (Juri Lelli) - remove explicit dl_server_stop() in dequeue_task_scx() to reduce timer reprogramming overhead (Juri Lelli) - do not restart pick_task() when invoked by the dl_server (Tejun Heo) - rename rq_dl_server to dl_server (Peter Zijlstra) - fixed a missing dl_server start in dl_server_on() (Christian Loehle) - add a comment to the rt_stall selftest to better explain the 4% threshold (Emil Tsalapatis) Changes in v9: - Drop the ->balance() logic as its functionality is now integrated into ->pick_task(), allowing dl_server to call pick_task_scx() directly - Link to v8: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250903095008.162049-1-arighi@nvidia.com/ Changes in v8: - Add tj's patch to de-couple balance and pick_task and avoid changing sched/core callbacks to propagate @rf - Simplify dl_se->dl_server check (suggested by PeterZ) - Small coding style fixes in the kselftests - Link to v7: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250809184800.129831-1-joelagnelf@nvidia.com/ Changes in v7: - Rebased to Linus master - Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250702232944.3221001-1-joelagnelf@nvidia.com/ Changes in v6: - Added Acks to few patches - Fixes to few nits suggested by Tejun - Link to v5: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250620203234.3349930-1-joelagnelf@nvidia.com/ Changes in v5: - Added a kselftest (total_bw) to sched_ext to verify bandwidth values from debugfs - Address comment from Andrea about redundant rq clock invalidation - Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250617200523.1261231-1-joelagnelf@nvidia.com/ Changes in v4: - Fixed issues with hotplugged CPUs having their DL server bandwidth altered due to loading SCX - Fixed other issues - Rebased on Linus master - All sched_ext kselftests reliably pass now, also verified that the total_bw in debugfs (CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG) is conserved with these patches - Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250613051734.4023260-1-joelagnelf@nvidia.com/ Changes in v3: - Removed code duplication in debugfs.

[PATCH net-next v14 0/7] bonding: Extend arp_ip_target format to allow for a list of vlan tags.

by David Wilder

The current implementation of the arp monitor builds a list of vlan-tags by following the chain of net_devices above the bond. See bond_verify_device_path(). Unfortunately, with some configurations, this is not possible. One example is when an ovs switch is configured above the bond. This change extends the "arp_ip_target" parameter format to allow for a list of vlan tags to be included for each arp target. This new list of tags is optional and may be omitted to preserve the current format and process of discovering vlans. The new format for arp_ip_target is: arp_ip_target ipv4-address[vlan-tag\...],... For example: arp_ip_target 10.0.0.1[10/20] arp_ip_target 10.0.0.1[] (used to disable vlan discovery) Changes since V13 Thanks for the help Paolo: - Changed first argument of bond_option_arp_ip_target_add() to a const. - Changed first argument of bond_arp_target_to_string to a const. - Added compiler time check of size argument to: bond_arp_target_to_string(), BUILD_BUG_ON(size != BOND_OPTION_STRING_MAX_SIZE); - In bond_arp_send_all() I changed the condition for both the allocation and the free calls to be the same to improve the clarity of the code. - Removed extra tab in bond_fill_info(). - Updated update bond_get_size() to reflect the increased payload for the arp_ip_target option. - Corrected indentation and alignment in bond-arp-ip-target.sh. Changes since V12 Fixed uninitialized variable in bond_option_arp_ip_targets_set() (patch 4) causing a CI failure. Changes since V11 No Change. Changes since V10 Thanks Paolo: - 1/7 Changed the layout of struct bond_arp_target to reduce size of the struct. - 3/7 Fixed format 'size-num' -> 'size - num' - 7/7 Updated selftest (bond-arp-ip-target.sh). Removed sleep 10 in check_failure_count(). Added call to tc to verify arp probes are reaching the target interface. Then I verify that the Link Failure counts are not increasing over "time". Arp probes are sent every 100ms, two missed probes will trigger a Link failure. A one second wait between checking counts should be be more than sufficient. This speeds up the execution of the test. Thanks Nikolay: - 4/7 In bond_option_arp_ip_targets_clear() I changed the definition of empty_target to empty_target = {}. - bond_validate_tags() now verifies input is a multiple of sizeof(struct bond_vlan_tag). Updated VID validity check to use: !tags->vlan_id || tags->vlan_id >= VLAN_VID_MASK) as suggested. - In bond_option_arp_ip_targets_set() removed the redundant length check of target.target_ip. - Added kfree(target.tags) when bond_option_arp_ip_target_add() results in an error. - Removed the caching of struct bond_vlan_tag returned by bond_verify_device_path(), Nikolay pointed out that caching tags prevented the detection of VLAN configuration changes. Added a kfree(tags) for tags allocated in bond_verify_device_path(). Jay, Nikolay and I had a discussion regarding locking when adding, deleting or changing vlan tags. Jay pointed out that user supplied tags that are stashed in the bond configuration and can only be changed via user space this can be done safely in an RCU manner as netlink always operates with RTNL held. If user space provided tags and then replumbs things, it'll be on user space to update the tags in a safe manor. I was concerned about changing options on a configured bond, I found that attempting to change a bonds configuration (using "ip set") will abort the attempt to make a change if the bond's state is "UP" or has slaves configured. Therefor the configuration and operational side of a bond is separated. I agree with Jay that the existing locking scheme is sufficient. Change since V9 Fix kdoc build error. Changes since V8: Moved the #define BOND_MAX_VLAN_TAGS from patch 6 to patch 3. Thanks Simon for catching the bisection break. Changes since V7: These changes should eliminate the CI failures I have been seeing. 1) patch 2, changed type of bond_opt_value.extra_len to size_t. 2) Patch 4, added bond_validate_tags() to validate the array of bond_vlan_tag provided by the user. Changes since V6: 1) I made a number of changes to fix the failure seen in the kernel CI. I am still unable to reproduce the this failure, hopefully I have fixed it. These change are in patch #4 to functions: bond_option_arp_ip_targets_clear() and bond_option_arp_ip_targets_set() Changes since V5: Only the last 2 patches have changed since V5. 1) Fixed sparse warning in bond_fill_info(). 2) Also in bond_fill_info() I resolved data.addr uninitialized when if condition is not met. Thank you Simon for catching this. Note: The change is different that what I shared earlier. 3) Fixed shellcheck warnings in test script: Blocked source warning, Ignored specific unassigned references and exported ALL_TESTS to resolve a reference warning. Changes since V4: 1)Dropped changes to proc and sysfs APIs to bonding. These APIs do not need to be updated to support new functionality. Netlink and iproute2 have been updated to do the right thing, but the other APIs are more or less frozen in the past. 2)Jakub reported a warning triggered in bond_info_seq_show() during testing. I was unable to reproduce this warning or identify it with code inspection. However, all my changes to bond_info_seq_show() have been dropped as unnecessary (see above). Hopefully this will resolve the issue. 3)Selftest script has been updated based on the results of shellcheck. Two unresolved references that are not possible to resolve are all that remain. 4)A patch was added updating bond_info_fill() to support "ip -d show <bond-device>" command. The inclusion of a list of vlan tags is optional. The new logic preserves both forward and backward compatibility with the kernel and iproute2 versions. Changes since V3: 1) Moved the parsing of the extended arp_ip_target out of the kernel and into userspace (ip command). A separate patch to iproute2 to follow shortly. 2) Split up the patch set to make review easier. Please see iproute changes in a separate posting. Thank you for your time and reviews.

[PATCH v22 00/28] riscv control-flow integrity for usermode

by Deepak Gupta via B4 Relay

v22: fixing build error due to -march=zicfiss being picked in gcc-13 and above but not actually doing any codegen or recognizing instruction for zicfiss. Change in v22 makes dependence on `-fcf-protection=full` compiler flag to ensure that toolchain has support and then only CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI will be visible in menuconfig. v21: fixed build errors. Basics and overview =================== Software with larger attack surfaces (e.g. network facing apps like databases, browsers or apps relying on browser runtimes) suffer from memory corruption issues which can be utilized by attackers to bend control flow of the program to eventually gain control (by making their payload executable). Attackers are able to perform such attacks by leveraging call-sites which rely on indirect calls or return sites which rely on obtaining return address from stack memory. To mitigate such attacks, risc-v extension zicfilp enforces that all indirect calls must land on a landing pad instruction `lpad` else cpu will raise software check exception (a new cpu exception cause code on riscv). Similarly for return flow, risc-v extension zicfiss extends architecture with - `sspush` instruction to push return address on a shadow stack - `sspopchk` instruction to pop return address from shadow stack and compare with input operand (i.e. return address on stack) - `sspopchk` to raise software check exception if comparision above was a mismatch - Protection mechanism using which shadow stack is not writeable via regular store instructions More information an details can be found at extensions github repo [1]. Equivalent to landing pad (zicfilp) on x86 is `ENDBRANCH` instruction in Intel CET [3] and branch target identification (BTI) [4] on arm. Similarly x86's Intel CET has shadow stack [5] and arm64 has guarded control stack (GCS) [6] which are very similar to risc-v's zicfiss shadow stack. x86 and arm64 support for user mode shadow stack is already in mainline. Kernel awareness for user control flow integrity ================================================ This series picks up Samuel Holland's envcfg changes [2] as well. So if those are being applied independently, they should be removed from this series. Enabling: In order to maintain compatibility and not break anything in user mode, kernel doesn't enable control flow integrity cpu extensions on binary by default. Instead exposes a prctl interface to enable, disable and lock the shadow stack or landing pad feature for a task. This allows userspace (loader) to enumerate if all objects in its address space are compiled with shadow stack and landing pad support and accordingly enable the feature. Additionally if a subsequent `dlopen` happens on a library, user mode can take a decision again to disable the feature (if incoming library is not compiled with support) OR terminate the task (if user mode policy is strict to have all objects in address space to be compiled with control flow integirty cpu feature). prctl to enable shadow stack results in allocating shadow stack from virtual memory and activating for user address space. x86 and arm64 are also following same direction due to similar reason(s). clone/fork: On clone and fork, cfi state for task is inherited by child. Shadow stack is part of virtual memory and is a writeable memory from kernel perspective (writeable via a restricted set of instructions aka shadow stack instructions) Thus kernel changes ensure that this memory is converted into read-only when fork/clone happens and COWed when fault is taken due to sspush, sspopchk or ssamoswap. In case `CLONE_VM` is specified and shadow stack is to be enabled, kernel will automatically allocate a shadow stack for that clone call. map_shadow_stack: x86 introduced `map_shadow_stack` system call to allow user space to explicitly map shadow stack memory in its address space. It is useful to allocate shadow for different contexts managed by a single thread (green threads or contexts) risc-v implements this system call as well. signal management: If shadow stack is enabled for a task, kernel performs an asynchronous control flow diversion to deliver the signal and eventually expects userspace to issue sigreturn so that original execution can be resumed. Even though resume context is prepared by kernel, it is in user space memory and is subject to memory corruption and corruption bugs can be utilized by attacker in this race window to perform arbitrary sigreturn and eventually bypass cfi mechanism. Another issue is how to ensure that cfi related state on sigcontext area is not trampled by legacy apps or apps compiled with old kernel headers. In order to mitigate control-flow hijacting, kernel prepares a token and place it on shadow stack before signal delivery and places address of token in sigcontext structure. During sigreturn, kernel obtains address of token from sigcontext struture, reads token from shadow stack and validates it and only then allow sigreturn to succeed. Compatiblity issue is solved by adopting dynamic sigcontext management introduced for vector extension. This series re-factor the code little bit to allow future sigcontext management easy (as proposed by Andy Chiu from SiFive) config and compilation: Introduce a new risc-v config option `CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI`. Selecting this config option picks the kernel support for user control flow integrity. This optin is presented only if toolchain has shadow stack and landing pad support. And is on purpose guarded by toolchain support. Reason being that eventually vDSO also needs to be compiled in with shadow stack and landing pad support. vDSO compile patches are not included as of now because landing pad labeling scheme is yet to settle for usermode runtime. To get more information on kernel interactions with respect to zicfilp and zicfiss, patch series adds documentation for `zicfilp` and `zicfiss` in following: Documentation/arch/riscv/zicfiss.rst Documentation/arch/riscv/zicfilp.rst How to test this series ======================= Toolchain --------- $ git clone git@github.com:sifive/riscv-gnu-toolchain.git -b cfi-dev $ riscv-gnu-toolchain/configure --prefix=<path-to-where-to-build> --with-arch=rv64gc_zicfilp_zicfiss --enable-linux --disable-gdb --with-extra-multilib-test="rv64gc_zicfilp_zicfiss-lp64d:-static" $ make -j$(nproc) Qemu ---- Get the lastest qemu $ cd qemu $ mkdir build $ cd build $ ../configure --target-list=riscv64-softmmu $ make -j$(nproc) Opensbi ------- $ git clone git@github.com:deepak0414/opensbi.git -b v6_cfi_spec_split_opensbi $ make CROSS_COMPILE=<your riscv toolchain> -j$(nproc) PLATFORM=generic Linux ----- Running defconfig is fine.

With dual vdso support it is default "y" (if toolchain supports it). Fixing build error due to "-march=zicfiss" being picked in gcc-13 partially. gcc-13 only recognizes the flag but not actually doing any codegen or recognizing instruction for zicfiss. Change in v22 makes dependence on `-fcf-protection=full` compiler flag to ensure that toolchain has support and then only CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI will be visible in menuconfig. - picked up tags and some cosmetic changes in commit message for dual vdso patch. v21: - Fixing build errors due to changes in arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso.h Using #ifdef instead of IS_ENABLED in arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso.h vdso-cfi-offsets.h should be included only when CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI is selected. v20: - rebased on v6.18-rc1. - Added two vDSO support. If `CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI` is selected two vDSOs are compiled (one for hardware prior to RVA23 and one for RVA23 onwards). Kernel exposes RVA23 vDSO if hardware/cpu implements zimop else exposes existing vDSO to userspace. - default selection for `CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI` is "Yes". - replaced "__ASSEMBLY__" with "__ASSEMBLER__" v19: - riscv_nousercfi was `int`. changed it to unsigned long. Thanks to Alex Ghiti for reporting it. It was a bug. - ELP is cleared on trap entry only when CONFIG_64BIT. - restore ssp back on return to usermode was being done before `riscv_v_context_nesting_end` on trap exit path. If kernel shadow stack were enabled this would result in kernel operating on user shadow stack and panic (as I found in my testing of kcfi patch series). So fixed that. v18: - rebased on 6.16-rc1 - uprobe handling clears ELP in sstatus image in pt_regs - vdso was missing shadow stack elf note for object files. added that. Additional asm file for vdso needed the elf marker flag. toolchain should complain if `-fcf-protection=full` and marker is missing for object generated from asm file. Asked toolchain folks to fix this. Although no reason to gate the merge on that. - Split up compile options for march and fcf-protection in vdso Makefile - CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI option is moved under "Kernel features" menu Added `arch/riscv/configs/hardening.config` fragment which selects CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI v17: - fixed warnings due to empty macros in usercfi.h (reported by alexg) - fixed prefixes in commit titles reported by alexg - took below uprobe with fcfi v2 patch from Zong Li and squashed it with "riscv/traps: Introduce software check exception and uprobe handling" https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250604093403.10916-1-zong.li@sifive.com/ v16: - If FWFT is not implemented or returns error for shadow stack activation, then no_usercfi is set to disable shadow stack. Although this should be picked up by extension validation and activation. Fixed this bug for zicfilp and zicfiss both. Thanks to Charlie Jenkins for reporting this. - If toolchain doesn't support cfi, cfi kselftest shouldn't build. Suggested by Charlie Jenkins. - Default for CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI is set to no. Charlie/Atish suggested to keep it off till we have more hardware availibility with RVA23 profile and zimop/zcmop implemented. Else this will start breaking people's workflow - Includes the fix if "!RV64 and !SBI" then definitions for FWFT in asm-offsets.c error. v15: - Toolchain has been updated to include `-fcf-protection` flag. This exists for x86 as well. Updated kernel patches to compile vDSO and selftest to compile with `fcf-protection=full` flag. - selecting CONFIG_RISCV_USERCFI selects CONFIG_RISCV_SBI. - Patch to enable shadow stack for kernel wasn't hidden behind CONFIG_RISCV_USERCFI and CONFIG_RISCV_SBI. fixed that. v14: - rebased on top of palmer/sbi-v3. Thus dropped clement's FWFT patches Updated RISCV_ISA_EXT_XXXX in hwcap and hwprobe constants. - Took Radim's suggestions on bitfields. - Placed cfi_state at the end of thread_info block so that current situation is not disturbed with respect to member fields of thread_info in single cacheline. v13: - cpu_supports_shadow_stack/cpu_supports_indirect_br_lp_instr uses riscv_has_extension_unlikely() - uses nops(count) to create nop slide - RISCV_ACQUIRE_BARRIER is not needed in `amo_user_shstk`. Removed it - changed ternaries to simply use implicit casting to convert to bool. - kernel command line allows to disable zicfilp and zicfiss independently. updated kernel-parameters.txt. - ptrace user abi for cfi uses bitmasks instead of bitfields. Added ptrace kselftest. - cosmetic and grammatical changes to documentation. v12: - It seems like I had accidently squashed arch agnostic indirect branch tracking prctl and riscv implementation of those prctls. Split them again. - set_shstk_status/set_indir_lp_status perform CSR writes only when CPU support is available. As suggested by Zong Li. - Some minor clean up in kselftests as suggested by Zong Li. v11: - patch "arch/riscv: compile vdso with landing pad" was unconditionally selecting `_zicfilp` for vDSO compile. fixed that. Changed `lpad 1` to to `lpad 0`. v10: - dropped "mm: helper `is_shadow_stack_vma` to check shadow stack vma". This patch is not that interesting to this patch series for risc-v. There are instances in arch directories where VM_SHADOW_STACK flag is anyways used. Dropping this patch to expedite merging in riscv tree. - Took suggestions from `Clement` on "riscv: zicfiss / zicfilp enumeration" to validate presence of cfi based on config. - Added a patch for vDSO to have `lpad 0`. I had omitted this earlier to make sure we add single vdso object with cfi enabled. But a vdso object with scheme of zero labeled landing pad is least common denominator and should work with all objects of zero labeled as well as function-signature labeled objects. v9: - rebased on master (39a803b754d5 fix braino in "9p: fix ->rename_sem exclusion") - dropped "mm: Introduce ARCH_HAS_USER_SHADOW_STACK" (master has it from arm64/gcs) - dropped "prctl: arch-agnostic prctl for shadow stack" (master has it from arm64/gcs) v8: - rebased on palmer/for-next - dropped samuel holland's `envcfg` context switch patches. they are in parlmer/for-next v7: - Removed "riscv/Kconfig: enable HAVE_EXIT_THREAD for riscv" Instead using `deactivate_mm` flow to clean up. see here for more context https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230908203655.543765-1-rick.p.edgecombe@intel.… - Changed the header include in `kselftest`. Hopefully this fixes compile issue faced by Zong Li at SiFive. - Cleaned up an orphaned change to `mm/mmap.c` in below patch "riscv/mm : ensure PROT_WRITE leads to VM_READ | VM_WRITE" - Lock interfaces for shadow stack and indirect branch tracking expect arg == 0 Any future evolution of this interface should accordingly define how arg should be setup. - `mm/map.c` has an instance of using `VM_SHADOW_STACK`. Fixed it to use helper `is_shadow_stack_vma`. - Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241008-v5_user_cfi_series-v6-0-60d9fe073f37@riv… v6: - Picked up Samuel Holland's changes as is with `envcfg` placed in `thread` instead of `thread_info` - fixed unaligned newline escapes in kselftest - cleaned up messages in kselftest and included test output in commit message - fixed a bug in clone path reported by Zong Li - fixed a build issue if CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_V is not selected (this was introduced due to re-factoring signal context management code) v5: - rebased on v6.12-rc1 - Fixed schema related issues in device tree file - Fixed some of the documentation related issues in zicfilp/ss.rst (style issues and added index) - added `SHADOW_STACK_SET_MARKER` so that implementation can define base of shadow stack. - Fixed warnings on definitions added in usercfi.h when CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI is not selected. - Adopted context header based signal handling as proposed by Andy Chiu - Added support for enabling kernel mode access to shadow stack using FWFT (https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/riscv-sbi-doc/blob/master/src/ext-firmware…) - Link to v5: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241001-v5_user_cfi_series-v1-0-3ba65b6e550f@riv… (Note: I had an issue in my workflow due to which version number wasn't picked up correctly while sending out patches) v4: - rebased on 6.11-rc6 - envcfg: Converged with Samuel Holland's patches for envcfg management on per- thread basis. - vma_is_shadow_stack is renamed to is_vma_shadow_stack - picked up Mark Brown's `ARCH_HAS_USER_SHADOW_STACK` patch - signal context: using extended context management to maintain compatibility. - fixed `-Wmissing-prototypes` compiler warnings for prctl functions - Documentation fixes and amending typos. - Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240912231650.3740732-1-debug@rivosinc.com/ v3: - envcfg logic to pick up base envcfg had a bug where `ENVCFG_CBZE` could have been picked on per task basis, even though CPU didn't implement it. Fixed in this series. - dt-bindings As suggested, split into separate commit. fixed the messaging that spec is in public review - arch_is_shadow_stack change arch_is_shadow_stack changed to vma_is_shadow_stack - hwprobe zicfiss / zicfilp if present will get enumerated in hwprobe - selftests As suggested, added object and binary filenames to .gitignore Selftest binary anyways need to be compiled with cfi enabled compiler which will make sure that landing pad and shadow stack are enabled. Thus removed separate enable/disable tests. Cleaned up tests a bit. - Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240403234054.2020347-1-debug@rivosinc.com/ v2: - Using config `CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI`, kernel support for riscv control flow integrity for user mode programs can be compiled in the kernel. - Enabling of control flow integrity for user programs is left to user runtime - This patch series introduces arch agnostic `prctls` to enable shadow stack and indirect branch tracking. And implements them on riscv. --- Changes in v22: - Link to v21: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251015-v5_user_cfi_series-v21-0-6a07856e90e7@ri… Changes in v21: - Link to v20: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251013-v5_user_cfi_series-v20-0-b9de4be9912e@ri… Changes in v20: -
