Hi Linus,

please pull a bunch of CFI fixes for 6.5-rc2.

Thanks!

(also yeah, sometimes I can't type -- I only now noticed :/)

x86/cfi: Only define poison_cfi() if CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT=y (2023-07-11 10:17:55 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Fix kCFI/FineIBT weaknesses

The primary bug Alyssa noticed was that with FineIBT enabled function
prologues have a spurious ENDBR instruction:

__cfi_foo:
endbr64
subl $hash, %r10d
jz 1f
ud2
nop
1:
foo:
endbr64 <--- *sadface*

This means that any indirect call that fails to target the __cfi symbol
and instead targets (the regular old) foo+0, will succeed due to that
second ENDBR.

Fixing this lead to the discovery of a single indirect call that was
still doing this: ret_from_fork(), since that's an assembly stub the
compmiler would not generate the proper kCFI indirect call magic and it
would not get patched.

Brian came up with the most comprehensive fix -- convert the thing to C
with only a very thin asm wrapper. This ensures the kernel thread
boostrap is a proper kCFI call.

While discussing all this, Kees noted that kCFI hashes could/should be
poisoned to seal all functions whose address is never taken, further
limiting the valid kCFI targets -- much like we already do for IBT.

So what was a 'simple' observation and fix cascaded into a bunch of
inter-related CFI infrastructure fixes.
