[PATCH 24/28] riscv: select config for shadow stack and landing pad instr support

From: Deepak Gupta
Date: Thu Jan 19 2023 - 13:47:15 EST


This patch selects config shadow stack support and landing pad instr
support. Shadow stack support and landing instr support is hidden behind
`CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI`. Selecting `CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI` wires up path
to enumerate CPU support and if cpu support exists, kernel will support
cpu assisted user mode cfi.

+config RISCV_USER_CFI

+ help
+ Provides CPU assisted control flow integrity to userspace tasks.
+ Control flow integrity is provided by implementing shadow stack for
+ backward edge and indirect branch tracking for forward edge in program.
+ Shadow stack protection is a hardware feature that detects function
+ return address corruption. This helps mitigate ROP attacks.
+ Indirect branch tracking enforces that all indirect branches must land
+ on a landing pad instruction else CPU will fault. This mitigates against
+ JOP / COP attacks. Applications must be enabled to use it, and old user-
+ space does not get protection "for free".
