commit 7ce2f039 upstream The TOPOEXT reenablement is a workaround for broken BIOSen which didn't enable the CPUID bit. amd_get_topology_early(), however, relies on that bit being set so that it can read out the CPUID leaf and set smp_num_siblings properly. Move the reenablement up to early_init_amd(). While at it, simplify amd_get_topology_early().

commit 11e34e64 upstream 336996-Speculative-Execution-Side-Channel-Mitigations.pdf defines a new MSR (IA32_FLUSH_CMD) which is detected by CPUID.7.EDX[28]=1 bit being set. This new MSR "gives software a way to invalidate structures with finer granularity than other architectual methods like WBINVD."

commit 1a7ed1ba upstream The previous patch has limited swap file size so that large offsets cannot clear bits above MAX_PA/2 in the pte and interfere with L1TF mitigation. It assumed that offsets are encoded starting with bit 12, same as pfn. But on x86_64, offsets are encoded starting with bit 9. Thus the limit can be raised by 3 bits. That means 16TB with 42bit MAX_PA and 256TB with 46bit MAX_PA.

commit 2207def7 upstream nosmt on the kernel command line merely prevents the onlining of the secondary SMT siblings. nosmt=force makes the APIC detection code ignore the secondary SMT siblings completely, so they even do not show up as possible CPUs. That reduces the amount of memory allocations for per cpu variables and saves other resources from being allocated too large. This is not fully equivalent to disabling SMT in the BIOS because the low level SMT enabling in the BIOS can result in partitioning of resources between the siblings, which is not undone by just ignoring them. Some CPUs can use the full resources when their sibling is not onlined, but this is depending on the CPU family and model and it's not well documented whether this applies to all partitioned resources. That means depending on the workload disabling SMT in the BIOS might result in better performance. Linus analysis of the Intel manual: The intel optimization manual is not very clear on what the partitioning rules are. I find: "In general, the buffers for staging instructions between major pipe stages are partitioned. These buffers include µop queues after the execution trace cache, the queues after the register rename stage, the reorder buffer which stages instructions for retirement, and the load and store buffers. In the case of load and store buffers, partitioning also provided an easier implementation to maintain memory ordering for each logical processor and detect memory ordering violations" but some of that partitioning may be relaxed if the HT thread is "not active": "In Intel microarchitecture code name Sandy Bridge, the micro-op queue is statically partitioned to provide 28 entries for each logical processor, irrespective of software executing in single thread or multiple threads. If one logical processor is not active in Intel microarchitecture code name Ivy Bridge, then a single thread executing on that processor core can use the 56 entries in the micro-op queue" but I do not know what "not active" means, and how dynamic it is. Some of that partitioning may be entirely static and depend on the early BIOS disabling of HT, and even if we park the cores, the resources will just be wasted.

commit 05736e4a upstream Provide a command line and a sysfs knob to control SMT. The command line options are: 'nosmt': Enumerate secondary threads, but do not online them 'nosmt=force': Ignore secondary threads completely during enumeration via MP table and ACPI/MADT. The sysfs control file has the following states (read/write): 'on': SMT is enabled. Secondary threads can be freely onlined 'off': SMT is disabled. Secondary threads, even if enumerated cannot be onlined 'forceoff': SMT is permanentely disabled. Writes to the control file are rejected. 'notsupported': SMT is not supported by the CPU The command line option 'nosmt' sets the sysfs control to 'off'. This can be changed to 'on' to reenable SMT during runtime. The command line option 'nosmt=force' sets the sysfs control to 'forceoff'. This cannot be changed during runtime. When SMT is 'on' and the control file is changed to 'off' then all online secondary threads are offlined and attempts to online a secondary thread later on are rejected. When SMT is 'off' and the control file is changed to 'on' then secondary threads can be onlined again. The 'off' -> 'on' transition does not automatically online the secondary threads. When the control file is set to 'forceoff', the behaviour is the same as setting it to 'off', but the operation is irreversible and later writes to the control file are rejected. When the control status is 'notsupported' then writes to the control file are rejected.

commit 377eeaa8 upstream For the L1TF workaround its necessary to limit the swap file size to below MAX_PA/2, so that the higher bits of the swap offset inverted never point to valid memory. Add a mechanism for the architecture to override the swap file size check in swapfile.c and add a x86 specific max swapfile check function that enforces that limit. The check is only enabled if the CPU is vulnerable to L1TF. In VMs with 42bit MAX_PA the typical limit is 2TB now, on a native system with 46bit PA it is 32TB. The limit is only per individual swap file, so it's always possible to exceed these limits with multiple swap files or partitions.

commit 42e4089c upstream For L1TF PROT_NONE mappings are protected by inverting the PFN in the page table entry. This sets the high bits in the CPU's address space, thus making sure to point to not point an unmapped entry to valid cached memory. Some server system BIOSes put the MMIO mappings high up in the physical address space. If such an high mapping was mapped to unprivileged users they could attack low memory by setting such a mapping to PROT_NONE. This could happen through a special device driver which is not access protected. Normal /dev/mem is of course access protected. To avoid this forbid PROT_NONE mappings or mprotect for high MMIO mappings. Valid page mappings are allowed because the system is then unsafe anyways. It's not expected that users commonly use PROT_NONE on MMIO. But to minimize any impact this is only enforced if the mapping actually refers to a high MMIO address (defined as the MAX_PA-1 bit being set), and also skip the check for root. For mmaps this is straight forward and can be handled in vm_insert_pfn and in remap_pfn_range(). For mprotect it's a bit trickier. At the point where the actual PTEs are accessed a lot of state has been changed and it would be difficult to undo on an error. Since this is a uncommon case use a separate early page talk walk pass for MMIO PROT_NONE mappings that checks for this condition early. For non MMIO and non PROT_NONE there are no changes.

Add the necessary CPU feature/bug bits. - Extend the existing checks for Meltdowns to determine if the system is vulnerable. All CPUs which are not vulnerable to Meltdown are also not vulnerable to L1TF - Check for 32bit non PAE and emit a warning as there is no practical way for mitigation due to the limited physical address bits - If the system has more than MAX_PA/2 physical memory the invert page workarounds don't protect the system against the L1TF attack anymore, because an inverted physical address will also point to valid memory. Print a warning in this case and report that the system is vulnerable. Add a function which returns the PFN limit for the L1TF mitigation, which will be used in follow up patches for sanity and range checks.

It's not entirely clear that the first page is reserved in all configurations, so add an extra reservation call to make sure it is really reserved.

commit 6b28baca upstream When PTEs are set to PROT_NONE the kernel just clears the Present bit and preserves the PFN, which creates attack surface for L1TF speculation speculation attacks. This is important inside guests, because L1TF speculation bypasses physical page remapping. While the host has its own migitations preventing leaking data from other VMs into the guest, this would still risk leaking the wrong page inside the current guest. This uses the same technique as Linus' swap entry patch: while an entry is is in PROTNONE state invert the complete PFN part part of it. This ensures that the the highest bit will point to non existing memory. The invert is done by pte/pmd_modify and pfn/pmd/pud_pte for PROTNONE and pte/pmd/pud_pfn undo it. This assume that no code path touches the PFN part of a PTE directly without using these primitives. This doesn't handle the case that MMIO is on the top of the CPU physical memory. If such an MMIO region was exposed by an unpriviledged driver for mmap it would be possible to attack some real memory. However this situation is all rather unlikely. For 32bit non PAE the inversion is not done because there are really not enough bits to protect anything. Q: Why does the guest need to be protected when the HyperVisor already has L1TF mitigations? A: Here's an example: Physical pages 1 2 get mapped into a guest as GPA 1 -> PA 2 GPA 2 -> PA 1 through EPT. The L1TF speculation ignores the EPT remapping. Now the guest kernel maps GPA 1 to process A and GPA 2 to process B, and they belong to different users and should be isolated. A sets the GPA 1 PA 2 PTE to PROT_NONE to bypass the EPT remapping and gets read access to the underlying physical page. Which in this case points to PA 2, so it can read process B's data, if it happened to be in L1, so isolation inside the guest is broken. There's nothing the hypervisor can do about this. This mitigation has to be done in the guest itself.

commit 2f22b4cd upstream With L1 terminal fault the CPU speculates into unmapped PTEs, and resulting side effects allow to read the memory the PTE is pointing too, if its values are still in the L1 cache. For swapped out pages Linux uses unmapped PTEs and stores a swap entry into them. To protect against L1TF it must be ensured that the swap entry is not pointing to valid memory, which requires setting higher bits (between bit 36 and bit 45) that are inside the CPUs physical address space, but outside any real memory. To do this invert the offset to make sure the higher bits are always set, as long as the swap file is not too big. Note there is no workaround for 32bit !PAE, or on systems which have more than MAX_PA/2 worth of memory. The later case is very unlikely to happen on real systems.

commit bcd11afa upstream If pages are swapped out, the swap entry is stored in the corresponding PTE, which has the Present bit cleared. CPUs vulnerable to L1TF speculate on PTE entries which have the present bit set and would treat the swap entry as phsyical address (PFN). To mitigate that the upper bits of the PTE must be set so the PTE points to non existent memory. The swap entry stores the type and the offset of a swapped out page in the PTE. type is stored in bit 9-13 and offset in bit 14-63. The hardware ignores the bits beyond the phsyical address space limit, so to make the mitigation effective its required to start 'offset' at the lowest possible bit so that even large swap offsets do not reach into the physical address space limit bits. Move offset to bit 9-58 and type to bit 59-63 which are the bits that hardware generally doesn't care about. That, in turn, means that if you on desktop chip with only 40 bits of physical addressing, now that the offset starts at bit 9, there needs to be 30 bits of offset actually *in use* until bit 39 ends up being set, which means when inverted it will again point into existing memory. So that's 4 terabyte of swap space (because the offset is counted in pages, so 30 bits of offset is 42 bits of actual coverage). With bigger physical addressing, that obviously grows further, until the limit of the offset is hit (at 50 bits of offset - 62 bits of actual swap file coverage). This is a preparatory change for the actual swap entry inversion to protect against L1TF. [ AK: Updated description and minor tweaks.

commit eee4818b upstream _PAGE_PSE is used to distinguish between a truly non-present (_PAGE_PRESENT=0) PMD, and a PMD which is undergoing a THP split and should be treated as present. But _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY currently uses the _PAGE_PSE bit, which would cause confusion between one of those PMDs undergoing a THP split, and a soft-dirty PMD. Dropping _PAGE_PSE check in pmd_present() does not work well, because it can hurt optimization of tlb handling in thp split. Thus, we need to move the bit. In the current kernel, bits 1-4 are not used in non-present format since commit 00839ee3 ("x86/mm: Move swap offset/type up in PTE to work around erratum"). So let's move _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY to bit 1. Bit 7 is used as reserved (always clear), so please don't use it for other purpose.

commit 50896e18 upstream L1 Terminal Fault (L1TF) is a speculation related vulnerability. The CPU speculates on PTE entries which do not have the PRESENT bit set, if the content of the resulting physical address is available in the L1D cache. The OS side mitigation makes sure that a !PRESENT PTE entry points to a physical address outside the actually existing and cachable memory space. This is achieved by inverting the upper bits of the PTE. Due to the address space limitations this only works for 64bit and 32bit PAE kernels, but not for 32bit non PAE. This mitigation applies to both host and guest kernels, but in case of a 64bit host (hypervisor) and a 32bit PAE guest, inverting the upper bits of the PAE address space (44bit) is not enough if the host has more than 43 bits of populated memory address space, because the speculation treats the PTE content as a physical host address bypassing EPT. The host (hypervisor) protects itself against the guest by flushing L1D as needed, but pages inside the guest are not protected against attacks from other processes inside the same guest. For the guest the inverted PTE mask has to match the host to provide the full protection for all pages the host could possibly map into the guest. The hosts populated address space is not known to the guest, so the mask must cover the possible maximal host address space, i.e. 52 bit. On 32bit PAE the maximum PTE mask is currently set to 44 bit because that is the limit imposed by 32bit unsigned long PFNs in the VMs. This limits the mask to be below what the host could possible use for physical pages. The L1TF PROT_NONE protection code uses the PTE masks to determine which bits to invert to make sure the higher bits are set for unmapped entries to prevent L1TF speculation attacks against EPT inside guests. In order to invert all bits that could be used by the host, increase __PHYSICAL_PAGE_SHIFT to 52 to match 64bit. The real limit for a 32bit PAE kernel is still 44 bits because all Linux PTEs are created from unsigned long PFNs, so they cannot be higher than 44 bits on a 32bit kernel. So these extra PFN bits should be never set. The only users of this macro are using it to look at PTEs, so it's safe.

commit 208cbb32 upstream. It was reported that the commit d0a8d937 is causing users of gcc < 4.9 to observe -Werror=missing-prototypes errors. Indeed, it seems that: extern inline unsigned long native_save_fl(void) { return 0; } compiled with -Werror=missing-prototypes produces this warning in gcc < 4.9, but not gcc >= 4.9. Fixes: d0a8d937 ("x86/paravirt: Make native_save_fl() extern inline").

commit 5800dc5c upstream. Nadav reported that on guests we're failing to rewrite the indirect calls to CALLEE_SAVE paravirt functions. In particular the pv_queued_spin_unlock() call is left unpatched and that is all over the place. This obviously wrecks Spectre-v2 mitigation (for paravirt guests) which relies on not actually having indirect calls around. The reason is an incorrect clobber test in paravirt_patch_call(); this function rewrites an indirect call with a direct call to the _SAME_ function, there is no possible way the clobbers can be different because of this. Therefore remove this clobber check. Also put WARNs on the other patch failure case (not enough room for the instruction) which I've not seen trigger in my (limited) testing. Three live kernel image disassemblies for lock_sock_nested (as a small function that illustrates the problem nicely).

commit d8f9cc32 upstream. To allow rereg_user_mr to modify the MR from read-only to writable without using get_user_pages again, we needed to define the initial MR as writable. However, this was originally done unconditionally, without taking into account the writability of the underlying virtual memory. As a result, any attempt to register a read-only MR over read-only virtual memory failed. To fix this, do not add the writable flag bit when the user virtual memory is not writable (e.g. const memory). However, when the underlying memory is NOT writable (and we therefore do not define the initial MR as writable), the IB core adds a "force writable" flag to its user-pages request. If this succeeds, the reg_user_mr caller gets a writable copy of the original pages. If the user-space caller then does a rereg_user_mr operation to enable writability, this will succeed. This should not be allowed, since the original virtual memory was not writable.

The superblock reference is the core of the fix however the sysctl_inodes list is converted to a hlist so that hlist_del_init_rcu may be used. This allows proc_sys_prune_dache to remove inodes the sysctl_inodes list, while not causing problems for proc_sys_evict_inode when if it later choses to remove the inode from the sysctl_inodes list. Removing inodes from the sysctl_inodes list allows proc_sys_prune_dcache to have a progress guarantee, while still being able to drop all locks. The fact that head->unregistering is set in start_unregistering ensures that no more inodes will be added to the the sysctl_inodes list. Previously the code did a dance where it delayed calling iput until the next entry in the list was being considered to ensure the inode remained on the sysctl_inodes list until the next entry was walked to. The structure of the loop in this patch does not need that so is much easier to understand and maintain.

commit d6cffbbe upstream. Currently unregistering sysctl table does not prune its dentries. Stale dentries could slowdown sysctl operations significantly. For example, command: # for i in {1..100000} ; do unshare -n -- sysctl -a &> /dev/null ; done creates a millions of stale denties around sysctls of loopback interface: # sysctl fs.dentry-state fs.dentry-state = 25812579 24724135 45 0 0 0 All of them have matching names thus lookup have to scan though whole hash chain and call d_compare (proc_sys_compare) which checks them under system-wide spinlock (sysctl_lock). # time sysctl -a > /dev/null real 1m12.806s user 0m0.016s sys 1m12.400s Currently only memory reclaimer could remove this garbage. But without significant memory pressure this never happens. This patch collects sysctl inodes into list on sysctl table header and prunes all their dentries once that table unregisters.

commit 119e1ef8 upstream. __legitimize_mnt() has two problems - one is that in case of success the check of mount_lock is not ordered wrt preceding increment of refcount, making it possible to have successful __legitimize_mnt() on one CPU just before the otherwise final mntpu() on another, with __legitimize_mnt() not seeing mntput() taking the lock and mntput() not seeing the increment done by __legitimize_mnt(). Solved by a pair of barriers. Another is that failure of __legitimize_mnt() on the second read_seqretry() leaves us with reference that'll need to be dropped by caller; however, if that races with final mntput() we can end up with caller dropping rcu_read_lock() and doing mntput() to release that reference - with the first mntput() having freed the damn thing just as rcu_read_lock() had been dropped. Solution: in "do mntput() yourself" failure case grab mount_lock, check if MNT_DOOMED has been set by racing final mntput() that has missed our increment and if it has - undo the increment and treat that as "failure, caller doesn't need to drop anything" case. It's not easy to hit - the final mntput() has to come right after the first read_seqretry() in __legitimize_mnt() *and* manage to miss the increment done by __legitimize_mnt() before the second read_seqretry() in there. The things that are almost impossible to hit on bare hardware are not impossible on SMP KVM, though...

commit 9ea0a46c upstream. mntput_no_expire() does the calculation of total refcount under mount_lock; unfortunately, the decrement (as well as all increments) are done outside of it, leading to false positives in the "are we dropping the last reference" test. Consider the following situation: * mnt is a lazy-umounted mount, kept alive by two opened files. One of those files gets closed. Total refcount of mnt is 2. On CPU 42 mntput(mnt) (called from __fput()) drops one reference, decrementing component * After it has looked at component #0, the process on CPU 0 does mntget(), incrementing component #0, gets preempted and gets to run again - on CPU 69. There it does mntput(), which drops the reference (component #69) and proceeds to spin on mount_lock. * On CPU 42 our first mntput() finishes counting. It observes the decrement of component #69, but not the increment of component #0. As the result, the total it gets is not 1 as it should've been - it's 0. At which point we decide that vfsmount needs to be killed and proceed to free it and shut the filesystem down. However, there's still another opened file on that filesystem, with reference to (now freed) vfsmount, etc. and we are screwed. It's not a wide race, but it can be reproduced with artificial slowdown of the mnt_get_count() loop, and it should be easier to hit on SMP KVM setups. Fix consists of moving the refcount decrement under mount_lock; the tricky part is that we want (and can) keep the fast case (i.e. mount that still has non-NULL ->mnt_ns) entirely out of mount_lock. All places that zero mnt->mnt_ns are dropping some reference to mnt and they call synchronize_rcu() before that mntput(). IOW, if mntput() observes (under rcu_read_lock()) a non-NULL ->mnt_ns, it is guaranteed that there is another reference yet to be dropped.
