Spectre variant 1 attacks are about this sequence of pseudo-code: index = load(user-manipulated pointer); access(base + index * stride); In order for the cache side-channel to work, the access() must me made to memory which userspace can detect whether cache lines have been loaded. On 32-bit ARM, this must be either user accessible memory, or a kernel mapping of that same user accessible memory. The problem occurs when the load() speculatively loads privileged data, and the subsequent access() is made to user accessible memory. Any load() which makes use of a user-maniplated pointer is a potential problem if the data it has loaded is used in a subsequent access. This also applies for the access() if the data loaded by that access is used by a subsequent access. Harden the get_user() accessors against Spectre attacks by forcing out of bounds addresses to a NULL pointer. This prevents get_user() being used as the load() step above. As a side effect, put_user() will also be affected even though it isn't implicated. Also harden copy_from_user() by redoing the bounds check within the arm_copy_from_user() code, and NULLing the pointer if out of bounds.

Fixing __get_user() for spectre variant 1 is not sane: we would have to add address space bounds checking in order to validate that the location should be accessed, and then zero the address if found to be invalid. Since __get_user() is supposed to avoid the bounds check, and this is exactly what get_user() does, there's no point having two different implementations that are doing the same thing. So, when the Spectre workarounds are required, make __get_user() an alias of get_user(). Acked-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>

Borrow the x86 implementation of __inttype() to use in get_user() to select an integer type suitable to temporarily hold the result value. This is necessary to avoid propagating the volatile nature of the result argument, which can cause the following warning: lib/iov_iter.c:413:5: warning: optimization may eliminate reads and/or writes to register variables [-Wvolatile-register-var] Acked-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>

__get_user_error() is used as a fast accessor to make copying structure members as efficient as possible. However, with software PAN and the recent Spectre variant 1, the efficiency is reduced as these are no longer fast accessors. In the case of software PAN, it has to switch the domain register around each access, and with Spectre variant 1, it would have to repeat the access_ok() check for each access. Rather than using __get_user_error() to copy each semops element member, copy each semops element in full using __copy_from_user().

Donald reported that IPv6 route leaking between VRFs is not working. The root cause is the strict argument in the call to rt6_lookup when validating the nexthop spec. ip6_route_check_nh validates the gateway and device (if given) of a route spec. It in turn could call rt6_lookup (e.g., lookup in a given table did not succeed so it falls back to a full lookup) and if so sets the strict argument to 1. That means if the egress device is given, the route lookup needs to return a result with the same device. This strict requirement does not work with VRFs (IPv4 or IPv6) because the oif in the flow struct is overridden with the index of the VRF device to trigger a match on the l3mdev rule and force the lookup to its table. The right long term solution is to add an l3mdev index to the flow struct such that the oif is not overridden. That solution will not backport well, so this patch aims for a simpler solution to relax the strict argument if the route spec device is an l3mdev slave. As done in other places, use the FLOWI_FLAG_SKIP_NH_OIF to know that the RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE flag needs to be removed.
