[RFC PATCH v4 3/9] x86/cet/ibt: Add IBT legacy code bitmap allocation function

From: Yu-cheng Yu <hidden>
Date: 2018-09-21 15:11:19
Also in: linux-api, linux-arch, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

Indirect branch tracking provides an optional legacy code bitmap
that indicates locations of non-IBT compatible code.  When set,
each bit in the bitmap represents a page in the linear address is
legacy code.

We allocate the bitmap only when the application requests it.
Most applications do not need the bitmap.
