Great, I'd be perfectly fine with such an approach.
Also, if we have that then we could re-apply Alexey's patch and switch to INT3
(only on 64-bit kernels) without any trouble, because objtool should detect any
execution flow bugs before the INT3 could trigger, right?
I.e. any INT3 fault would show a combination of *both* an objtool bug and a
probable code flow bug - which I suspect would warrant crashing the box ...
Sounds good to me. I can take Alexey's patch and submit a 64-bit
version of it, along with the relevant objtool changes (though it may
still be a few weeks before I get the chance).
Sounds good to me, thanks!
