      indirect branch tracking (IBT) and shadow stack (SHSTK).  When CET
      is enabled, the GNU C Library is compatible with all existing
      executables and shared libraries.  This feature is currently
-     supported on i386, x86_64 and x32 with GCC 8 and binutils 2.29 or
-     later.  Note that when CET is enabled, the GNU C Library requires

-     Intel Pentium Pro or newer.  With ‘--enable-cet’, it is an error to

-     With ‘--enable-cet=permissive’, CET is disabled when dlopening a
-     non CET enabled shared library in CET enabled application.
