Mesa still has the local change to add and call
extern "C" void
lp_set_module_branch_protection(LLVMModuleRef MRef)
{
/* Enable standard (bti+pac-ret) branch protection */
llvm::Module *M = llvm::unwrap(MRef);
M->addModuleFlag(llvm::Module::Override, "branch-target-enforcement", 1);
M->addModuleFlag(llvm::Module::Override, "sign-return-address", 1);
}
I don't have a machine with BTI.
