You are right. I only needed two versions because of the nops for aligment.

However, I think I can address your concern. Now that we are able to
define ENDBR_PRESENT, we can define the trampoline size in the header like
this

#ifdef ENDBR_PRESENT
#define	UNIX64_TRAMP_SIZE	40
#else
#define UNIX64_TRAMP_SIZE	32
#endif

Then, in the trampoline code table:

C(trampoline_code_table):
        .rept   UNIX64_TRAMP_MAP_SIZE / UNIX64_TRAMP_SIZE
        _CET_ENDBR
        subq    $16, %rsp               /* Make space on the stack */
        movq    %r10, (%rsp)            /* Save %r10 on stack */
        movq    4077(%rip), %r10        /* Copy data into %r10 */
        movq    %r10, 8(%rsp)           /* Save data on stack */
        movq    4073(%rip), %r10        /* Copy code into %r10 */
        jmp     *%r10                   /* Jump to code */
	nop
	nop
#ifdef ENDBR_PRESENT
        nop
        nop
        nop
        nop
#endif
        .endr
ENDF(C(trampoline_code_table))


This is cool. We only need one table.

Thanks.
