Control-flow Enforcement (CET) is a new Intel processor feature that blocks return/jump-oriented programming attacks. Details are in "Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual" [1].
This is the second part of CET and enables Indirect Branch Tracking (IBT). It is built on top of the shadow stack series. Changes in v22: - Add patch #8: Add endbr64 to sgx vdso entry point. - Rebase to Linus tree v5.12-rc2.
