Add a few signature bytes after the static call trampoline and verify those bytes match before patching the trampoline. This avoids patching random other JMPs (such as CFI jump-table entries) instead. These bytes decode as: d: 53 push %rbx e: 43 54 rex.XB push %r12 And happen to spell "SCT".

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 Restructured Text 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.
