[PATCH v4 15/30] riscv/mm: Implement map_shadow_stack() syscall
Posted by Deepak Gupta 2 months, 2 weeks ago
As discussed extensively in the changelog for the addition of this
syscall on x86 ("x86/shstk: Introduce map_shadow_stack syscall") the
existing mmap() and madvise() syscalls do not map entirely well onto the
security requirements for shadow stack memory since they lead to windows
where memory is allocated but not yet protected or stacks which are not
properly and safely initialised. Instead a new syscall map_shadow_stack()
has been defined which allocates and initialises a shadow stack page.

This patch implements this syscall for riscv. riscv doesn't require token
to be setup by kernel because user mode can do that by itself. However to
provide compatibility and portability with other architectues, user mode
can specify token set flag.

The arm64 series also adds SHADOW_STACK_SET_MARKER for a top of stack
marker, if this is only being done for compatibility it might be good to
pick that up as well.  I don't know what the thoughts are on using them
for RISC-V.  On arm64 the top of stack marker is just all bits 0.
