That way, no information is provided to userspace (both application and
debugger), which is rather unfortunate. It would be nice if a new SEGV_*
code was added at least, and CET error (with error code constant provided
in UAPI) is passed via si_errno. (Having ip/sp/*ssp would be even
better, but I'm not exactly sure about ramifications of providing this
kind of information to user space).
Ok, I will add that.
