Implement a limited form of KASAN for Book3S 64-bit machines running under the Radix MMU, supporting only outline mode. - Enable the compiler instrumentation to check addresses and maintain the shadow region. (This is the guts of KASAN which we can easily reuse.) - Require kasan-vmalloc support to handle modules and anything else in vmalloc space. - KASAN needs to be able to validate all pointer accesses, but we can't instrument all kernel addresses - only linear map and vmalloc. On boot, set up a single page of read-only shadow that marks all iomap and vmemmap accesses as valid. - Document KASAN in powerpc docs. Background ---------- KASAN support on Book3S is a bit tricky to get right: - It would be good to support inline instrumentation so as to be able to catch stack issues that cannot be caught with outline mode. - Inline instrumentation requires a fixed offset. - Book3S runs code with translations off ("real mode") during boot, including a lot of generic device-tree parsing code which is used to determine MMU features. [ppc64 mm note: The kernel installs a linear mapping at effective address c000...-c008.... This is a one-to-one mapping with physical memory from 0000... onward. Because of how memory accesses work on powerpc 64-bit Book3S, a kernel pointer in the linear map accesses the same memory both with translations on (accessing as an 'effective address'), and with translations off (accessing as a 'real address'). This works in both guests and the hypervisor. For more details, see s5.7 of Book III of version 3 of the ISA, in particular the Storage Control Overview, s5.7.3, and s5.7.5 - noting that this KASAN implementation currently only supports Radix.] - Some code - most notably a lot of KVM code - also runs with translations off after boot. - Therefore any offset has to point to memory that is valid with translations on or off. One approach is just to give up on inline instrumentation. This way boot-time checks can be delayed until after the MMU is set is up, and we can just not instrument any code that runs with translations off after booting. Take this approach for now and require outline instrumentation. Previous attempts allowed inline instrumentation. However, they came with some unfortunate restrictions: only physically contiguous memory could be used and it had to be specified at compile time. Maybe we can do better in the future. [paulus@ozlabs.org - Rebased onto 5.17. Note that a kernel with CONFIG_KASAN=y will crash during boot on a machine using HPT translation because not all the entry points to the generic KASAN code are protected with a call to kasan_arch_is_ready().] Originally-by: Balbir Singh <bsingharora@gmail.com> # ppc64 out-of-line radix version Signed-off-by: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> [mpe: Update copyright year and comment formatting] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/YoTE69OQwiG7z+Gu@cleo

The kexec code paths involve code that necessarily run in real mode, as CPUs are disabled and control is transferred to the new kernel.

Disable address sanitization for raw and non-maskable interrupt handlers, because they can run in real mode, where we cannot access the shadow memory. (Note that kasan_arch_is_ready() doesn't test for real mode, since it is a static branch for speed, and in any case not all the entry points to the generic KASAN code are protected by kasan_arch_is_ready guards.) The changes to interrupt_nmi_enter/exit_prepare() look larger than they actually are. The changes are equivalent to adding !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KASAN) to the conditions for calling nmi_enter() or nmi_exit() in real mode. That is, the code is equivalent to using the following condition for calling nmi_enter/exit: if (((!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64) || !firmware_has_feature(FW_FEATURE_LPAR) || radix_enabled()) && !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KASAN) || (mfmsr() & MSR_DR)) That unwieldy condition has been split into several statements with comments, for easier reading. The nmi_ipi_lock functions that call atomic functions (i.e., nmi_ipi_lock_start(), nmi_ipi_lock() and nmi_ipi_unlock()), besides being marked noinstr, now call arch_atomic_* functions instead of atomic_* functions because with KASAN enabled, the atomic_* functions are wrappers which explicitly do address sanitization on their arguments. Since we are trying to avoid address sanitization, we have to use the lower-level arch_atomic_* versions. In hv_nmi_check_nonrecoverable(), the regs_set_unrecoverable() call has been open-coded so as to avoid having to either trust the inlining or mark regs_set_unrecoverable() as noinstr.

Russell Currey authored
In commit f3054ffd ("selftests/powerpc: Return skip code for spectre_v2"), the spectre_v2 selftest is updated to be aware of cases where the vulnerability status reported in sysfs is incorrect, skipping the test instead. This happens because qemu can misrepresent the mitigation status of the host to the guest. If the count cache is disabled in the host, and this is correctly reported to the guest, then the guest won't apply mitigations. If the guest is then migrated to a new host where mitigations are necessary, it is now vulnerable because it has not applied mitigations. Update the selftest to report when we see excessive misses, indicative of the count cache being disabled. If software flushing is enabled, also warn that these flushes are just wasting performance.

The device-tree property no-need-store-drain-on-priv-state-switch is equivalent to H_CPU_BEHAV_NO_STF_BARRIER from the H_CPU_GET_CHARACTERISTICS hcall on pseries. Since commit 84ed26fd ("powerpc/security: Add a security feature for STF barrier") powernv systems with this device-tree property have been enabling the STF barrier when they have no need for it. This patch fixes this by clearing the STF barrier feature on those systems.

The device-tree properties no-need-l1d-flush-msr-pr-1-to-0 and no-need-l1d-flush-kernel-on-user-access are the equivalents of H_CPU_BEHAV_NO_L1D_FLUSH_ENTRY and H_CPU_BEHAV_NO_L1D_FLUSH_UACCESS from the H_GET_CPU_CHARACTERISTICS hcall on pseries respectively. In commit d02fa40d ("powerpc/powernv: Remove POWER9 PVR version check for entry and uaccess flushes") the condition for disabling the L1D flush on kernel entry and user access was changed from any non-P9 CPU to only checking P7 and P8. Without the appropriate device-tree checks for newer processors on powernv, these flushes are unnecessarily enabled on those systems. This patch corrects this.

In init_winctx_regs(), __pa() is called on winctx->rx_fifo and this function is called to initialize registers for receive and fault windows. But the real address is passed in winctx->rx_fifo for receive windows and the virtual address for fault windows which causes errors with DEBUG_VIRTUAL enabled.

module_trampoline_target() is quite a hot path used when activating/deactivating function tracer. Avoid the heavy copy_from_kernel_nofault() by doing four calls to copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault(). Use __copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault() for the 3 last calls. First call is done to copy_from_kernel_nofault() to check address is within kernel space. No risk to wrap out the top of kernel space because the last page is never mapped so if address is in last page the first copy will fails and the other ones will never be performed. And also make it notrace just like all functions that call it.

To avoid confusion and have the reader wonder what's happen when CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER is selected and CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE is not, use CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER in ifdefs instead of CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE.

Modify patch_instruction() return on failure to -EPERM in order to match with ftrace expectations. Other users of patch_instruction() do not care about the exact error value returned.

Inlining ftrace_modify_code(), it increases a bit the size of ftrace code but brings 5% improvment on ftrace activation. Usually in C files we let gcc decide what to do but here it really help to 'help' gcc to decide to inline, thought we don't want to force it with an __always_inline that would be too much for CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.

create_branch() is a good candidate for inlining because: - Flags can be folded in. - Range tests are likely to be already done. Hence reducing the create_branch() to only a set of instructions. So inline it. It improves ftrace activation by 10%.

Use is_offset_in_branch_range() instead of create_branch() to check if a target is within branch range.

Test in is_offset_in_branch_range() and is_offset_in_cond_branch_range() are simple tests that are worth inlining.

Since commit d5937db1 ("powerpc/code-patching: Fix patch_branch() return on out-of-range failure") patch_branch() fails with -ERANGE when trying to branch out of range. No need to perform the test twice. Remove redundant create_branch() calls.
