Bit positions of CNTHCTL_EL2 are changing depending on HCR_EL2.E2H bit. EL1PCEN and EL1PCTEN are 1st and 0th bits when E2H is not set, but they are 11th and 10th bits respectively when E2H is set. Current code is unintentionally setting wrong bits to CNTHCTL_EL2 with E2H set. In fact, we don't need to set those two bits, which allow EL1 and EL0 to access physical timer and counter respectively, if E2H and TGE are set for the host kernel. They will be configured later as necessary. First, we don't need to configure those bits for EL1, since the host kernel runs in EL2. It is a hypervisor's responsibility to configure them before entering a VM, which runs in EL0 and EL1. Second, EL0 accesses are configured in the later stage of boot process.

This patch adds the uaccess macros/functions to disable access to user space by setting TTBR0_EL1 to a reserved zeroed page. Since the value written to TTBR0_EL1 must be a physical address, for simplicity this patch introduces a reserved_ttbr0 page at a constant offset from swapper_pg_dir. The uaccess_disable code uses the ttbr1_el1 value adjusted by the reserved_ttbr0 offset. Enabling access to user is done by restoring TTBR0_EL1 with the value from the struct thread_info ttbr0 variable. Interrupts must be disabled during the uaccess_ttbr0_enable code to ensure the atomicity of the thread_info.ttbr0 read and TTBR0_EL1 write. This patch also moves the get_thread_info asm macro from entry.S to assembler.h for reuse in the uaccess_ttbr0_* macros.

This patch moves arm64's struct thread_info from the task stack into task_struct. This protects thread_info from corruption in the case of stack overflows, and makes its address harder to determine if stack addresses are leaked, making a number of attacks more difficult. Precise detection and handling of overflow is left for subsequent patches. Largely, this involves changing code to store the task_struct in sp_el0, and acquire the thread_info from the task struct. Core code now implements current_thread_info(), and as noted in <linux/sched.h> this relies on offsetof(task_struct, thread_info) == 0, enforced by core code. This change means that the 'tsk' register used in entry.S now points to a task_struct, rather than a thread_info as it used to. To make this clear, the TI_* field offsets are renamed to TSK_TI_*, with asm-offsets appropriately updated to account for the structural change. Userspace clobbers sp_el0, and we can no longer restore this from the stack. Instead, the current task is cached in a per-cpu variable that we can safely access from early assembly as interrupts are disabled (and we are thus not preemptible). Both secondary entry and idle are updated to stash the sp and task pointer separately.

Instead of stashing the value of the link register in x28 before setting up the stack and calling into C code, create an ordinary PCS compatible stack frame so that we can push the return address onto the stack. Since exception handlers require a stack as well, assign the stack pointer register before installing the vector table.

Resume from hibernate needs to clean any text executed by the kernel with the MMU off to the PoC. Collect these functions together into the .idmap.text section as all this code is tightly coupled and also needs the same cleaning after resume. Data is more complicated, secondary_holding_pen_release is written with the MMU on, clean and invalidated, then read with the MMU off. In contrast __boot_cpu_mode is written with the MMU off, the corresponding cache line is invalidated, so when we read it with the MMU on we don't get stale data. These cache maintenance operations conflict with each other if the values are within a Cache Writeback Granule (CWG) of each other. Collect the data into two sections .mmuoff.data.read and .mmuoff.data.write, the linker script ensures mmuoff.data.write section is aligned to the architectural maximum CWG of 2KB.

When CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is selected, we modify the page tables to remap the kernel at a newly-chosen VA range. We do this with the MMU disabled, but do not invalidate TLBs prior to re-enabling the MMU with the new tables. Thus the old mappings entries may still live in TLBs, and we risk violating Break-Before-Make requirements, leading to TLB conflicts and/or other issues. We invalidate TLBs when we uninsall the idmap in early setup code, but prior to this we are subject to issues relating to the Break-Before-Make violation. Avoid these issues by invalidating the TLBs before the new mappings can be used by the hardware.

But having registers with 'global' scope in files that contain different sections with different lifetimes, and that are called by different CPUs at different times is a bit messy, especially since stashing the values does not buy us anything in terms of code size or clarity.

The linker routines that we rely on to produce a relocatable PIE binary treat it as a shared ELF object in some ways, i.e., it emits symbol based R_AARCH64_ABS64 relocations into the final binary since doing so would be appropriate when linking a shared library that is subject to symbol preemption. (This means that an executable can override certain symbols that are exported by a shared library it is linked with, and that the shared library *must* update all its internal references as well, and point them to the version provided by the executable.) Symbol preemption does not occur for OS hosted PIE executables, let alone for vmlinux, and so we would prefer to get rid of these symbol based relocations. This would allow us to simplify the relocation routines, and to strip the .dynsym, .dynstr and .hash sections from the binary. (Note that these are tiny, and are placed in the .init segment, but they clutter up the vmlinux binary.) Note that these R_AARCH64_ABS64 relocations are only emitted for absolute references to symbols defined in the linker script, all other relocatable quantities are covered by anonymous R_AARCH64_RELATIVE relocations that simply list the offsets to all 64-bit values in the binary that need to be fixed up based on the offset between the link time and run time addresses. Fortunately, GNU ld has a -Bsymbolic option, which is intended for shared libraries to allow them to ignore symbol preemption, and unconditionally bind all internal symbol references to its own definitions. So set it for our PIE binary as well, and get rid of the asoociated sections and the relocation code that processes them.

By enabling the MMU early in cpu_resume(), the sleep_save_sp and stack can be accessed by VA, which avoids the need to convert-addresses and clean to PoC on the suspend path. MMU setup is shared with the boot path, meaning the swapper_pg_dir is restored directly: ttbr1_el1 is no longer saved/restored. struct sleep_save_sp is removed, replacing it with a single array of pointers. cpu_do_{suspend,resume} could be further reduced to not restore: cpacr_el1, mdscr_el1, tcr_el1, vbar_el1 and sctlr_el1, all of which are set by __cpu_setup().

When booting a relocatable kernel image, there is no practical reason to refuse an image whose load address is not exactly TEXT_OFFSET bytes above a 2 MB aligned base address, as long as the physical and virtual misalignment with respect to the swapper block size are equal, and are both aligned to THREAD_SIZE. Since the virtual misalignment is under our control when we first enter the kernel proper, we can simply choose its value to be equal to the physical misalignment. So treat the misalignment of the physical load address as the initial KASLR offset, and fix up the remaining code to deal with that.

For historical reasons, the kernel Image must be loaded into physical memory at a 512 KB offset above a 2 MB aligned base address. The region between the base address and the start of the kernel Image has no significance to the kernel itself, but it is currently mapped explicitly into the early kernel VMA range for all translation granules. In some cases (i.e., 4 KB granule), this is unavoidable, due to the 2 MB granularity of the early kernel mappings. However, in other cases, e.g., when running with larger page sizes, or in the future, with more granular KASLR, there is no reason to map it explicitly like we do currently. So update the logic so that the region is mapped only if that happens as a side effect of rounding the start address of the kernel to swapper block size, and leave it unmapped otherwise. Since the symbol kernel_img_size now simply resolves to the memory footprint of the kernel Image, we can drop its definition from image.h and opencode its calculation.

Subsequently, the value of the temp register is reused to invalidate any cachelines covering this variable. However, since str_l resolves to adrp \tmp, \sym str \src, [\tmp, :lo12:\sym] the temp register never actually holds the address of the variable but only of the 4 KB window that covers it, and reusing it leads to the wrong cacheline being invalidated. So instead, take the address explicitly before doing the store, and reuse that value to perform the cache invalidation.

Commit f80fb3a3 ("arm64: add support for kernel ASLR") missed a DSB necessary to complete I-cache maintenance in the primary boot path, and hence stale instructions may still be present in the I-cache and may be executed until the I-cache maintenance naturally completes. Since commit 8ec41987 ("arm64: mm: ensure patched kernel text is fetched from PoU"), all CPUs invalidate their I-caches after their MMU is enabled. Prior a CPU's MMU having been enabled, arbitrary lines may have been fetched from the PoC into I-caches. We never patch text expected to be executed with the MMU off. Thus, it is unnecessary to perform broadcast I-cache maintenance in the primary boot path. This patch reduces the scope of the I-cache maintenance to the local CPU, and adds the missing DSB with similar scope, matching prior maintenance in the primary boot path.

A secondary CPU could fail to come online due to insufficient capabilities and could simply die or loop in the kernel. e.g, a CPU with no support for the selected kernel PAGE_SIZE loops in kernel with MMU turned off. or a hotplugged CPU which doesn't have one of the advertised system capability will die during the activation. There is no way to synchronise the status of the failing CPU back to the master. This patch solves the issue by adding a field to the secondary_data which can be updated by the failing CPU. If the secondary CPU fails even before turning the MMU on, it updates the status in a special variable reserved in the head.txt section to make sure that the update can be cache invalidated safely without possible sharing of cache write back granule. Here are the possible states : -1. CPU_MMU_OFF - Initial value set by the master CPU, this value indicates that the CPU could not turn the MMU on, hence the status could not be reliably updated in the secondary_data. Instead, the CPU has updated the status @ __early_cpu_boot_status. 0. CPU_BOOT_SUCCESS - CPU has booted successfully. 1. CPU_KILL_ME - CPU has invoked cpu_ops->die, indicating the master CPU to synchronise by issuing a cpu_ops->cpu_kill. 2. CPU_STUCK_IN_KERNEL - CPU couldn't invoke die(), instead is looping in the kernel. This information could be used by say, kexec to check if it is really safe to do a kexec reboot. 3. CPU_PANIC_KERNEL - CPU detected some serious issues which requires kernel to crash immediately. The secondary CPU cannot call panic() until it has initialised the GIC. This flag can be used to instruct the master to do so.

This adds support for KASLR is implemented, based on entropy provided by the bootloader in the /chosen/kaslr-seed DT property. Depending on the size of the address space (VA_BITS) and the page size, the entropy in the virtual displacement is up to 13 bits (16k/2 levels) and up to 25 bits (all 4 levels), with the sidenote that displacements that result in the kernel image straddling a 1GB/32MB/512MB alignment boundary (for 4KB/16KB/64KB granule kernels, respectively) are not allowed, and will be rounded up to an acceptable value. If CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL is enabled, the module region is randomized independently from the core kernel. This makes it less likely that the location of core kernel data structures can be determined by an adversary, but causes all function calls from modules into the core kernel to be resolved via entries in the module PLTs. If CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL is not enabled, the module region is randomized by choosing a page aligned 128 MB region inside the interval [_etext - 128 MB, _stext + 128 MB). This gives between 10 and 14 bits of entropy (depending on page size), independently of the kernel randomization, but still guarantees that modules are within the range of relative branch and jump instructions (with the caveat that, since the module region is shared with other uses of the vmalloc area, modules may need to be loaded further away if the module region is exhausted) Signed-off-by: NArd Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NCatalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

Unfortunately, the current way of using the linker to emit build time constants into the Image header will no longer work once we switch to the use of PIE executables. The reason is that such constants are emitted into the binary using R_AARCH64_ABS64 relocations, which are resolved at runtime, not at build time, and the places targeted by those relocations will contain zeroes before that. So refactor the endian swapping linker script constant generation code so that it emits the upper and lower 32-bit words separately.

This relaxes the kernel Image placement requirements, so that it may be placed at any 2 MB aligned offset in physical memory. This is accomplished by ignoring PHYS_OFFSET when installing memblocks, and accounting for the apparent virtual offset of the kernel Image. As a result, virtual address references below PAGE_OFFSET are correctly mapped onto physical references into the kernel Image regardless of where it sits in memory. Special care needs to be taken for dealing with memory limits passed via mem=, since the generic implementation clips memory top down, which may clip the kernel image itself if it is loaded high up in memory. To deal with this case, we simply add back the memory covering the kernel image, which may result in more memory to be retained than was passed as a mem= parameter. Since mem= should not be considered a production feature, a panic notifier handler is installed that dumps the memory limit at panic time if one was set.

This introduces the preprocessor symbol KIMAGE_VADDR which will serve as the symbolic virtual base of the kernel region, i.e., the kernel's virtual offset will be KIMAGE_VADDR + TEXT_OFFSET. For now, we define it as being equal to PAGE_OFFSET, but in the future, it will be moved below it once we move the kernel virtual mapping out of the linear mapping.

Currently the zero page is set up in paging_init, and thus we cannot use the zero page earlier. We use the zero page as a reserved TTBR value from which no TLB entries may be allocated (e.g. when uninstalling the idmap). To enable such usage earlier (as may be required for invasive changes to the kernel page tables), and to minimise the time that the idmap is active, we need to be able to use the zero page before paging_init. This patch follows the example set by x86, by allocating the zero page at compile time, in .bss. This means that the zero page itself is available immediately upon entry to start_kernel (as we zero .bss before this), and also means that the zero page takes up no space in the raw Image binary. The associated struct page is allocated in bootmem_init, and remains unavailable until this time. Outside of arch code, the only users of empty_zero_page assume that the empty_zero_page symbol refers to the zeroed memory itself, and that ZERO_PAGE(x) must be used to acquire the associated struct page, following the example of x86. This patch also brings arm64 inline with these assumptions.

The Performance Monitors extension is an optional feature of the AArch64 architecture, therefore, in order to access Performance Monitors registers safely, the kernel should detect the architected PMU unit presence through the ID_AA64DFR0_EL1 register PMUVer field before accessing them. This patch implements a guard by reading the ID_AA64DFR0_EL1 register PMUVer field to detect the architected PMU presence and prevent accessing PMU system registers if the Performance Monitors extension is not implemented in the core.

Currently we use an open-coded memzero to clear the BSS. As it is a trivial implementation, it is sub-optimal. Our optimised memset doesn't use the stack, is position-independent, and for the memzero case can use of DC ZVA to clear large blocks efficiently. In __mmap_switched the MMU is on and there are no live caller-saved registers, so we can safely call an uninstrumented memset. This patch changes __mmap_switched to use memset when clearing the BSS. We use the __pi_memset alias so as to avoid any instrumentation in all kernel configurations.

There is need for figuring out how to manage struct thread_info data when IRQ stack is introduced. struct thread_info information should be copied to IRQ stack under the current thread_info calculation logic whenever context switching is invoked. This is too expensive to keep supporting the approach. Instead, this patch pays attention to sp_el0 which is an unused scratch register in EL1 context. sp_el0 utilization not only simplifies the management, but also prevents text section size from being increased largely due to static allocated IRQ stack as removing masking operation using THREAD_SIZE in many places.
