After we ALIGN up the address we need to make sure we didn't overflow and resulted in zero address. In that case, we need to make sure that the returned address is greater than mmap_min_addr. This fixes selftest va_128TBswitch --run-hugetlb reporting failures when run as non root user for mmap(-1, MAP_HUGETLB) The bug is that a non-root user requesting address -1 will be given address 0 which will then fail, whereas they should have been given something else that would have succeeded. We also avoid the first mmap(-1, MAP_HUGETLB) returning NULL address as mmap address with this change. So we think this is not a security issue, because it only affects whether we choose an address below mmap_min_addr, not whether we actually allow that address to be mapped. ie. there are existing capability checks to prevent a user mapping below mmap_min_addr and those will still be honoured even without this fix.

Now that thread_info is similar to task_struct, its address is in r2 so CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro is useless. This patch removes it. This patch also moves the 'tovirt(r2, r2)' down just before the reactivation of MMU translation, so that we keep the physical address of 'current' in r2 until then. It avoids a few calls to tophys(). At the same time, as the 'cpu' field is not anymore in thread_info, TI_CPU is renamed TASK_CPU by this patch. It also allows to get rid of a couple of '#ifdef CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE' as ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY() and ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_EXIT() are empty when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE is not defined.

The table of pointers 'current_set' has been used for retrieving the stack and current. They used to be thread_info pointers as they were pointing to the stack and current was taken from the 'task' field of the thread_info. Now, the pointers of 'current_set' table are now both pointers to task_struct and pointers to thread_info. As they are used to get current, and the stack pointer is retrieved from current's stack field, this patch changes their type to task_struct, and renames secondary_ti to secondary_current.

thread_info is not anymore in the stack, so the entire stack can now be used. There is also no risk anymore of corrupting task_cpu(p) with a stack overflow so the patch removes the test. When doing this, an explicit test for NULL stack pointer is needed in validate_sp() as it is not anymore implicitely covered by the sizeof(thread_info) gap. In the meantime, with the previous patch all pointers to the stacks are not anymore pointers to thread_info so this patch changes them to void* Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

This patch activates CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK which moves the thread_info into task_struct. Moving thread_info into task_struct has the following advantages: - It protects thread_info from corruption in the case of stack overflows. - Its address is harder to determine if stack addresses are leaked, making a number of attacks more difficult. This has the following consequences: - thread_info is now located at the beginning of task_struct. - The 'cpu' field is now in task_struct, and only exists when CONFIG_SMP is active. - thread_info doesn't have anymore the 'task' field. This patch: - Removes all recopy of thread_info struct when the stack changes. - Changes the CURRENT_THREAD_INFO() macro to point to current. - Selects CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK. - Modifies raw_smp_processor_id() to get ->cpu from current without including linux/sched.h to avoid circular inclusion and without including asm/asm-offsets.h to avoid symbol names duplication between ASM constants and C constants. - Modifies klp_init_thread_info() to take a task_struct pointer argument.

[text copied from commit 9bbd4c56 ("arm64: prep stack walkers for THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK")] When CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK is selected, task stacks may be freed before a task is destroyed. To account for this, the stacks are refcounted, and when manipulating the stack of another task, it is necessary to get/put the stack to ensure it isn't freed and/or re-used while we do so. This patch reworks the powerpc stack walking code to account for this. When CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK is not selected these perform no refcounting, and this should only be a structural change that does not affect behaviour.

In __secondary_start() we load the thread_info of the idle task of the secondary CPU from current_set[cpu], and then convert it into a stack pointer before storing that back to paca->kstack. As pointed out in commit f761622e ("powerpc: Initialise paca->kstack before early_setup_secondary") it's important that we initialise paca->kstack before calling the MMU setup code, in particular slb_initialize(), because it will bolt the SLB entry for the kstack into the SLB. However we have already setup paca->kstack in cpu_idle_thread_init(), since commit 3b575064 ("[POWERPC] Bolt in SLB entry for kernel stack on secondary cpus") (May 2008). It's also in cpu_idle_thread_init() that we initialise current_set[cpu] with the thread_info pointer, so there is no issue of the timing being different between the two. Therefore the initialisation of paca->kstack in __setup_secondary() is completely redundant, so remove it. This has the added benefit of removing code that runs in real mode, and is therefore restricted by the RMO, and so opens the way for us to enable THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK.

Currently in system_call_exit() we have an optimisation where we disable MSR_RI (recoverable interrupt) and MSR_EE (external interrupt enable) in a single mtmsrd instruction. Unfortunately this will no longer work with THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, because then the load of TI_FLAGS might fault and faulting with MSR_RI clear is treated as an unrecoverable exception which leads to a panic(). So change the code to only clear MSR_EE prior to loading TI_FLAGS, leaving the clear of MSR_RI until later. We have some latitude in where do the clear of MSR_RI. A bit of experimentation has shown that this location gives the least slow down. This still causes a noticeable slow down in our null_syscall performance. On a Power9 DD2.2: Before After Delta Delta % 955 cycles 999 cycles -44 -4.6% On the plus side this does simplify the code somewhat, because we don't have to reenable MSR_RI on the restore_math() or syscall_exit_work() paths which was necessitated previously by the optimisation.

This patch implements handling of STRICT_KERNEL_RWX with large TLBs directly in the TLB miss handlers.

Today, STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is based on the use of regular pages to map kernel pages. On Book3s 32, it has three consequences: - Using pages instead of BAT for mapping kernel linear memory severely impacts performance. - Exec protection is not effective because no-execute cannot be set at page level (except on 603 which doesn't have hash tables) - Write protection is not effective because PP bits do not provide RO mode for kernel-only pages (except on 603 which handles it in software via PAGE_DIRTY) On the 603+, we have: - Independent IBAT and DBAT allowing limitation of exec parts. - NX bit can be set in segment registers to forbit execution on memory mapped by pages. - RO mode on DBATs even for kernel-only blocks. On the 601, there is nothing much we can do other than warn the user about it, because: - BATs are common to instructions and data. - BAT do not provide RO mode for kernel-only blocks. - segment registers don't have the NX bit. In order to use IBAT for exec protection, this patch: - Aligns _etext to BAT block sizes (128kb) - Set NX bit in kernel segment register (Except on vmalloc area when CONFIG_MODULES is selected) - Maps kernel text with IBATs. In order to use DBAT for exec protection, this patch: - Aligns RW DATA to BAT block sizes (4M) - Maps kernel RO area with write prohibited DBATs - Maps remaining memory with remaining DBATs Here is what we get with this patch on a 832x when activating STRICT_KERNEL_RWX: Symbols: c0000000 T _stext c0680000 R __start_rodata c0680000 R _etext c0800000 T __init_begin c0800000 T _sinittext ~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/block_address_translation ---[ Instruction Block Address Translation ]--- 0: 0xc0000000-0xc03fffff 0x00000000 Kernel EXEC coherent 1: 0xc0400000-0xc05fffff 0x00400000 Kernel EXEC coherent 2: 0xc0600000-0xc067ffff 0x00600000 Kernel EXEC coherent 3: - 4: - 5: - 6: - 7: - ---[ Data Block Address Translation ]--- 0: 0xc0000000-0xc07fffff 0x00000000 Kernel RO coherent 1: 0xc0800000-0xc0ffffff 0x00800000 Kernel RW coherent 2: 0xc1000000-0xc1ffffff 0x01000000 Kernel RW coherent 3: 0xc2000000-0xc3ffffff 0x02000000 Kernel RW coherent 4: 0xc4000000-0xc7ffffff 0x04000000 Kernel RW coherent 5: 0xc8000000-0xcfffffff 0x08000000 Kernel RW coherent 6: 0xd0000000-0xdfffffff 0x10000000 Kernel RW coherent 7: - ~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/segment_registers ---[ User Segments ]--- 0x00000000-0x0fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa085d0 0x10000000-0x1fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa086e1 0x20000000-0x2fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa087f2 0x30000000-0x3fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08903 0x40000000-0x4fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08a14 0x50000000-0x5fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08b25 0x60000000-0x6fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08c36 0x70000000-0x7fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08d47 0x80000000-0x8fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08e58 0x90000000-0x9fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08f69 0xa0000000-0xafffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa0907a 0xb0000000-0xbfffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa0918b ---[ Kernel Segments ]--- 0xc0000000-0xcfffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000ccc 0xd0000000-0xdfffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000ddd 0xe0000000-0xefffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000eee 0xf0000000-0xffffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000fff Aligning _etext to 128kb allows to map up to 32Mb text with 8 IBATs: 16Mb + 8Mb + 4Mb + 2Mb + 1Mb + 512kb + 256kb + 128kb (+ 128kb) = 32Mb (A 9th IBAT is unneeded as 32Mb would need only a single 32Mb block) Aligning data to 4M allows to map up to 512Mb data with 8 DBATs: 16Mb + 8Mb + 4Mb + 4Mb + 32Mb + 64Mb + 128Mb + 256Mb = 512Mb Because some processors only have 4 BATs and because some targets need DBATs for mapping other areas, the following patch will allow to modify _etext and data alignment.
