Currently, all callers to randomize_range() set the length to 0 and calculate end by adding a constant to the start address. We can simplify the API to remove a bunch of needless checks and variables. Use the new randomize_addr(start, range) call to set the requested address.

Provide a software-based implementation of the priviledged no access support found in ARMv8.1. Userspace pages are mapped using a different domain number from the kernel and IO mappings. If we switch the user domain to "no access" when we enter the kernel, we can prevent the kernel from touching userspace. However, the kernel needs to be able to access userspace via the various user accessor functions. With the wrapping in the previous patch, we can temporarily enable access when the kernel needs user access, and re-disable it afterwards. This allows us to trap non-intended accesses to userspace, eg, caused by an inadvertent dereference of the LIST_POISON* values, which, with appropriate user mappings setup, can be made to succeed. This in turn can allow use-after-free bugs to be further exploited than would otherwise be possible. Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Rather than modifying both the domain access control register and our per-thread copy, modify only the domain access control register, and use the per-thread copy to save and restore the register over context switches. We can also avoid the explicit initialisation of the init thread_info structure. This allows us to avoid needing to gain access to the thread information at the uaccess control sites.

Normally, when a CPU wants to clear a cache line to zero in the external L2 cache, it would generate bus cycles to write each word as it would do with any other data access. However, a Cortex A9 connected to a L2C-310 has a specific feature where the CPU can detect this operation, and signal that it wants to zero an entire cache line. This feature, known as Full Line of Zeros (FLZ), involves a non-standard AXI signalling mechanism which only the L2C-310 can properly interpret. There are separate enable bits in both the L2C-310 and the Cortex A9 - the L2C-310 needs to be enabled and have the FLZ enable bit set in the auxiliary control register before the Cortex A9 has this feature enabled. Unfortunately, the suspend code was not respecting this - it's not obvious from the code: swsusp_arch_suspend() cpu_suspend() /* saves the Cortex A9 auxiliary control register */ arch_save_image() soft_restart() /* turns off FLZ in Cortex A9, and disables L2C */ cpu_resume() /* restores the Cortex A9 registers, inc auxcr */ At this point, we end up with the L2C disabled, but the Cortex A9 with FLZ enabled - which means any memset() or zeroing of a full cache line will fail to take effect. A similar issue exists in the resume path, but it's slightly more complex: swsusp_arch_suspend() cpu_suspend() /* saves the Cortex A9 auxiliary control register */ arch_save_image() /* image with A9 auxcr saved */ ... swsusp_arch_resume() call_with_stack() arch_restore_image() /* restores image with A9 auxcr saved above */ soft_restart() /* turns off FLZ in Cortex A9, and disables L2C */ cpu_resume() /* restores the Cortex A9 registers, inc auxcr */ Again, here we end up with the L2C disabled, but Cortex A9 FLZ enabled. There's no need to turn off the L2C in either of these two paths; there are benefits from not doing so - for example, the page copies will be faster with the L2C enabled. Hence, fix this by providing a variant of soft_restart() which can be used without turning the L2 cache controller off, and use it in both of these paths to keep the L2C enabled across the respective resume transitions.

Initialize the VDSO page list at boot, install the VDSO mapping at exec time, and update the data page during timer ticks. This code is not built if CONFIG_VDSO is not enabled. Account for the VDSO length when randomizing the offset from the stack. The [vdso] and [vvar] pages are placed immediately following the sigpage with separate _install_special_mapping calls. We want to "penalize" systems lacking the arch timer as little as possible. Previous versions of this code installed the VDSO unconditionally and unmodified, making it a measurably slower way for glibc to invoke the real syscalls on such systems. E.g. calling gettimeofday via glibc goes from ~560ns to ~630ns on i.MX6Q. If we can indicate to glibc that the time-related APIs in the VDSO are not accelerated, glibc can continue to invoke the syscalls directly instead of dispatching through the VDSO only to fall back to the slow path. Thus, if the architected timer is unusable for whatever reason, patch the VDSO at boot time so that symbol lookups for gettimeofday and clock_gettime return NULL. (This is similar to what powerpc does and borrows code from there.) This allows glibc to perform the syscall directly instead of passing control to the VDSO, which minimizes the penalty. In my measurements the time taken for a gettimeofday call via glibc goes from ~560ns to ~580ns (again on i.MX6Q), and this is solely due to adding a test and branch to glibc's gettimeofday syscall wrapper. An alternative to patching the VDSO at boot would be to not install the VDSO at all when the arch timer isn't usable. Another alternative is to include a separate "dummy" vdso.so without gettimeofday and clock_gettime, which would be selected at boot time. Either of these would get cumbersome if the VDSO were to gain support for an API such as getcpu which is unrelated to arch timer support.

The TPIDRURO and TPIDRURW registers need to be flushed during exec; otherwise TLS information is potentially leaked. TPIDRURO in particular needs careful treatment. Since flush_thread basically needs the same code used to set the TLS in arm_syscall, pull that into a common set_tls helper in tls.h and use it in both places. Similarly, TEEHBR needs to be cleared during exec as well. Clearing its save slot in thread_info isn't right as there is no guarantee that a thread switch will occur before the new program runs.

get_wchan() is lockless. Task may wakeup at any time and change its own stack, thus each next stack frame may be overwritten and filled with random stuff. /proc/$pid/stack interface had been disabled for non-current tasks, see [1] But 'wchan' still allows to trigger stack frame unwinding on volatile stack. This patch fixes oops in unwind_frame() by adding stack pointer validation on each step (as x86 code do), unwind_frame() already checks frame pointer. Also I've found another report of this oops on stackoverflow (irony).

If kuser helpers are not provided by the kernel, disable user access to the vectors page. With the kuser helpers gone, there is no reason for this page to be visible to userspace. Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Move the signal handlers into a VDSO page rather than keeping them in the vectors page. This allows us to place them randomly within this page, and also map the page at a random location within userspace further protecting these code fragments from ROP attacks. The new VDSO page is also poisoned in the same way as the vector page. Signed-off-by: NRussell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Since commit 6a1c5312 the user writeable TLS register was zeroed to prevent it from being used as a covert channel between two tasks. There are more and more applications coming to Windows RT, Wine could support them, but mostly they expect to have the thread environment block (TEB) in TPIDRURW. This patch preserves that register per thread instead of clearing it. Unlike the TPIDRURO, which is already switched, the TPIDRURW can be updated from userspace so needs careful treatment in the case that we modify TPIDRURW and call fork(). To avoid this we must always read TPIDRURW in copy_thread.

Add comments to machine_shutdown()/halt()/power_off()/restart() that describe their purpose and/or requirements re: CPUs being active/not. In machine_shutdown(), replace the call to smp_send_stop() with a call to disable_nonboot_cpus(). This completely disables all but one CPU, thus satisfying the requirement that only a single CPU be active for kexec. Adjust Kconfig dependencies for this change. In machine_halt()/power_off()/restart(), call smp_send_stop() directly, rather than via machine_shutdown(); these functions don't need to completely de-activate all CPUs using hotplug, but rather just quiesce them. Remove smp_kill_cpus(), and its call from smp_send_stop(). smp_kill_cpus() was indirectly calling smp_ops.cpu_kill() without calling smp_ops.cpu_die() on the target CPUs first. At least some implementations of smp_ops had issues with this; it caused cpu_kill() to hang on Tegra, for example. Since smp_send_stop() is only used for shutdown, halt, and power-off, there is no need to attempt any kind of CPU hotplug here. Adjust Kconfig to reflect that machine_shutdown() (and hence kexec) relies upon disable_nonboot_cpus(). However, this alone doesn't guarantee that hotplug will work, or even that hotplug is implemented for a particular piece of HW that a multi-platform zImage runs on. Hence, add error-checking to machine_kexec() to determine whether it did work.

If one reads /proc/$PID/smaps, the mmap_sem belonging to the address space of the task being examined is locked for reading. All the pages of the vmas belonging to the task's address space are then walked with this lock held. If a gate_vma is present in the architecture, it too is examined by the fs/proc/task_mmu.c code. As gate_vma doesn't belong to the address space of the task though, its pages are not walked. A recent cleanup (commit f6604efe) of the gate_vma initialisation code set the vm_mm value to &init_mm. Unfortunately a non-NULL vm_mm value in the gate_vma will cause the task_mmu code to attempt to walk the pages of the gate_vma (with no mmap-sem lock held). If one enables Transparent Huge Page support and vm debugging, this will then cause OOPses as pmd_trans_huge_lock is called without mmap_sem being locked. This patch removes the .vm_mm value from gate_vma, restoring the original behaviour of the task_mmu code.

show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly different forms. This patch introduces a generic function to print debug information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same information and it's much easier to modify what's printed. show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack() does plus task and thread_info pointers. * Archs which didn't print debug info now do. alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r, metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc, um, xtensa * Already prints debug info. Replaced with show_regs_print_info(). The printed information is superset of what used to be there. arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86 * s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information along with generic debug info. Heiko and Martin think that the arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation. Converted to use the generic version. Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register dumps. An example BUG() dump follows. kernel BUG at /work/os/work/kernel/workqueue.c:4841! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.9.0-rc1-work+ #7 Hardware name: empty empty/S3992, BIOS 080011 10/26/2007 task: ffff88007c85e040 ti: ffff88007c860000 task.ti: ffff88007c860000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8234a07e>] [<ffffffff8234a07e>] init_workqueues+0x4/0x6 RSP: 0000:ffff88007c861ec8 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: ffff88007c861fd8 RBX: ffffffff824466a8 RCX: 0000000000000001 RDX: 0000000000000046 RSI: 0000000000000001 RDI: ffffffff8234a07a RBP: ffff88007c861ec8 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000001 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffffffff8234a07a R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88007dc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: ffff88015f7ff000 CR3: 00000000021f1000 CR4: 00000000000007f0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Stack: ffff88007c861ef8 ffffffff81000312 ffffffff824466a8 ffff88007c85e650 0000000000000003 0000000000000000 ffff88007c861f38 ffffffff82335e5d ffff88007c862080 ffffffff8223d8c0 ffff88007c862080 ffffffff81c47760 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81000312>] do_one_initcall+0x122/0x170 [<ffffffff82335e5d>] kernel_init_freeable+0x9b/0x1c8 [<ffffffff81c47760>] ? rest_init+0x140/0x140 [<ffffffff81c4776e>] kernel_init+0xe/0xf0 [<ffffffff81c6be9c>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff81c47760>] ? rest_init+0x140/0x140 ... v2: Typo fix in x86-32. v3: CPU number dropped from show_regs_print_info() as dump_stack_print_info() has been updated to print it. s390 specific implementation dropped as requested by s390 maintainers.
