commit 97c7e7994fe217656c0af00696c3e6dd5582cdef Author: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Fri May 1 18:10:00 2020 +0100 Commit: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Fri May 29 23:09:46 2020 +0100 x86/alt: Adjust _alternative_instructions() to not create shadow stacks The current alternatives algorithm clears CR0.WP and writes into .text. This has a side effect of the mappings becoming shadow stacks once CET is active. Adjust _alternative_instructions() to clean up after itself. This involves extending the set of bits modify_xen_mappings() to include Dirty (and Accessed for good measure).
