[PATCH v8 01/14] x86/cet/ibt: Add Kconfig option for user-mode Indirect Branch Tracking

From: Yu-cheng Yu <hidden>
Date: 2019-08-13 21:03:44
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

The user-mode indirect branch tracking support is done mostly by GCC
to insert ENDBR64/ENDBR32 instructions at branch targets.  The kernel
provides CPUID enumeration and feature setup.
