The compiler implements kCFI by adding type information (u32) above every function that might be indirectly called and, whenever a function pointer is called, injects a read-and-compare of that u32 against the value corresponding to the expected type. In case of a mismatch, a BRK instruction gets executed. When the hypervisor triggers such an exception in nVHE, it panics and triggers and exception return to EL1. Therefore, teach nvhe_hyp_panic_handler() to detect kCFI errors from the ESR and report them. If necessary, remind the user that EL2 kCFI is not affected by CONFIG_CFI_PERMISSIVE. Pass $(CC_FLAGS_CFI) to the compiler when building the nVHE hyp code. Use SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START() for __pkvm_init_switch_pgd, as nVHE can't call it directly and must use a PA function pointer from C (because it is part of the idmap page), which would trigger a kCFI failure if the type ID wasn't present.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
