x86/efi: Use efi_exit_boot_services()

2016-09-05T11:40:16+00:00

The eboot code directly calls ExitBootServices.  This is inadvisable as the
UEFI spec details a complex set of errors, race conditions, and API
interactions that the caller of ExitBootServices must get correct.  The
eboot code attempts allocations after calling ExitBootSerives which is
not permitted per the spec.  Call the efi_exit_boot_services() helper
intead, which handles the allocation scenario properly.

efi/libstub: Allocate headspace in efi_get_memory_map()

2016-09-05T11:18:17+00:00

efi_get_memory_map() allocates a buffer to store the memory map that it
retrieves.  This buffer may need to be reused by the client after
ExitBootServices() is called, at which point allocations are not longer
permitted.  To support this usecase, provide the allocated buffer size back
to the client, and allocate some additional headroom to account for any
reasonable growth in the map that is likely to happen between the call to
efi_get_memory_map() and the client reusing the buffer.

Kbuild: arch: look for generated headers in obtree

2016-07-18T19:31:35+00:00

There are very few files that need add an -I$(obj) gcc for the preprocessor
or the assembler. For C files, we add always these for both the objtree and
srctree, but for the other ones we require the Makefile to add them, and
Kbuild then adds it for both trees.

As a preparation for changing the meaning of the -I$(obj) directive to
only refer to the srctree, this changes the two instances in arch/x86 to use
an explictit $(objtree) prefix where needed, otherwise we won't find the
headers any more, as reported by the kbuild 0day builder.

x86/mm: Disallow running with 32-bit PTEs to work around erratum

2016-07-13T07:43:25+00:00

The Intel(R) Xeon Phi(TM) Processor x200 Family (codename: Knights
Landing) has an erratum where a processor thread setting the Accessed
or Dirty bits may not do so atomically against its checks for the
Present bit.  This may cause a thread (which is about to page fault)
to set A and/or D, even though the Present bit had already been
atomically cleared.

These bits are truly "stray".  In the case of the Dirty bit, the
thread associated with the stray set was *not* allowed to write to
the page.  This means that we do not have to launder the bit(s); we
can simply ignore them.

If the PTE is used for storing a swap index or a NUMA migration index,
the A bit could be misinterpreted as part of the swap type.  The stray
bits being set cause a software-cleared PTE to be interpreted as a
swap entry.  In some cases (like when the swap index ends up being
for a non-existent swapfile), the kernel detects the stray value
and WARN()s about it, but there is no guarantee that the kernel can
always detect it.

When we have 64-bit PTEs (64-bit mode or 32-bit PAE), we were able
to move the swap PTE format around to avoid these troublesome bits.
But, 32-bit non-PAE is tight on bits.  So, disallow it from running
on this hardware.  I can't imagine anyone wanting to run 32-bit
non-highmem kernels on this hardware, but disallowing them from
running entirely is surely the safe thing to do.

x86/mm: Enable KASLR for physical mapping memory regions

2016-07-08T15:35:15+00:00

Add the physical mapping in the list of randomized memory regions.

The physical memory mapping holds most allocations from boot and heap
allocators. Knowing the base address and physical memory size, an attacker
can deduce the PDE virtual address for the vDSO memory page. This attack
was demonstrated at CanSecWest 2016, in the following presentation:

  "Getting Physical: Extreme Abuse of Intel Based Paged Systems":
  https://github.com/n3k/CansecWest2016_Getting_Physical_Extreme_Abuse_of_Intel_Based_Paging_Systems/blob/master/Presentation/CanSec2016_Presentation.pdf

(See second part of the presentation).

The exploits used against Linux worked successfully against 4.6+ but
fail with KASLR memory enabled:

  https://github.com/n3k/CansecWest2016_Getting_Physical_Extreme_Abuse_of_Intel_Based_Paging_Systems/tree/master/Demos/Linux/exploits

Similar research was done at Google leading to this patch proposal.

Variants exists to overwrite /proc or /sys objects ACLs leading to
elevation of privileges. These variants were tested against 4.6+.

The page offset used by the compressed kernel retains the static value
since it is not yet randomized during this boot stage.
