From: H.J. Lu <hjl@sourceware.org> To: glibc-cvs@sourceware.org Subject: [glibc] x86/cet: Don't set CET active by default Date: Mon, 1 Jan 2024 13:24:24 +0000 (GMT) [thread overview] Message-ID: <20240101132424.1E6EE3858D35@sourceware.org> (raw) https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=glibc.git;h=55d63e731253de82e96ed4ddca2e294076cd0bc5 commit 55d63e731253de82e96ed4ddca2e294076cd0bc5 Author: H.J. Lu <hjl.tools@gmail.com> Date: Fri Dec 29 08:43:53 2023 -0800 x86/cet: Don't set CET active by default Not all CET enabled applications and libraries have been properly tested in CET enabled environments. Some CET enabled applications or libraries will crash or misbehave when CET is enabled. Don't set CET active by default so that all applications and libraries will run normally regardless of whether CET is active or not. Shadow stack can be enabled by $ export GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.cpu.hwcaps=SHSTK at run-time if shadow stack can be enabled by kernel. NB: This commit can be reverted if it is OK to enable CET by default for all applications and libraries.
