// TODO: The runtime library does not currently protect the safe stack beyond
// relying on the system-enforced ASLR. The protection of the (safe) stack can
// be provided by three alternative features:
//
// 1) Protection via hardware segmentation on x86-32 and some x86-64
// architectures: the (safe) stack segment (implicitly accessed via the %ss
// segment register) can be separated from the data segment (implicitly
// accessed via the %ds segment register). Dereferencing a pointer to the safe
// segment would result in a segmentation fault.
//
// 2) Protection via software fault isolation: memory writes that are not meant
// to access the safe stack can be prevented from doing so through runtime
// instrumentation. One way to do it is to allocate the safe stack(s) in the
// upper half of the userspace and bitmask the corresponding upper bit of the
// memory addresses of memory writes that are not meant to access the safe
// stack.
//
// 3) Protection via information hiding on 64 bit architectures: the location
// of the safe stack(s) can be randomized through secure mechanisms, and the
// leakage of the stack pointer can be prevented. Currently, libc can leak the
// stack pointer in several ways (e.g. in longjmp, signal handling, user-level
// context switching related functions, etc.). These can be fixed in libc and
// in other low-level libraries, by either eliminating the escaping/dumping of
// the stack pointer (i.e., %rsp) when that's possible, or by using
// encryption/PTR_MANGLE (XOR-ing the dumped stack pointer with another secret
// we control and protect better, as is already done for setjmp in glibc.)
// Furthermore, a static machine code level verifier can be ran after code
// generation to make sure that the stack pointer is never written to memory,
// or if it is, its written on the safe stack.
//
// Finally, while the Unsafe Stack pointer is currently stored in a thread
// local variable, with libc support it could be stored in the TCB (thread
// control block) as well, eliminating another level of indirection and making
// such accesses faster. Alternatively, dedicating a separate register for
// storing it would also be possible.

// TODO: To make accessing the unsafe stack pointer faster, we plan to
// eventually store it directly in the thread control block data structure on
// platforms where this structure is pointed to by %fs or %gs. This is exactly
// the same mechanism as currently being used by the traditional stack
// protector pass to store the stack guard (see getStackCookieLocation()
// function above). Doing so requires changing the tcbhead_t struct in glibc
// on Linux and tcb struct in libc on FreeBSD.
//
// For now, store it in a thread-local variable.
