mm: add arch-independent testcases for RODATA

2017-02-28T02:43:48+00:00

This patch makes arch-independent testcases for RODATA.  Both x86 and
x86_64 already have testcases for RODATA, But they are arch-specific
because using inline assembly directly.

And cacheflush.h is not a suitable location for rodata-test related
things.  Since they were in cacheflush.h, If someone change the state of
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA_TEST, It cause overhead of kernel build.

To solve the above issues, write arch-independent testcases and move it
to shared location.

Pull rodata updates from Kees Cook:
 "This renames the (now inaccurate) DEBUG_RODATA and related
  SET_MODULE_RONX configs to the more sensible STRICT_KERNEL_RWX and
  STRICT_MODULE_RWX"

* tag 'rodata-v4.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux:
  arch: Rename CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and CONFIG_DEBUG_MODULE_RONX

arch: Move CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and CONFIG_SET_MODULE_RONX to be common

2017-02-07T20:32:52+00:00

There are multiple architectures that support CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and
CONFIG_SET_MODULE_RONX. These options also now have the ability to be
turned off at runtime. Move these to an architecture independent
location and make these options def_bool y for almost all of those
arches.

x86/mm: Remove CONFIG_DEBUG_NX_TEST

2017-01-31T07:31:58+00:00

CONFIG_DEBUG_NX_TEST has been broken since CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX=y
was added in v2.6.37 via:

  84e1c6bb38eb ("x86: Add RO/NX protection for loadable kernel modules")

since the exception table was then made read-only.

Additionally, the manually constructed extables were never fixed when
relative extables were introduced in v3.5 via:

  706276543b69 ("x86, extable: Switch to relative exception table entries")

However, relative extables won't work for test_nx.c, since test instruction
memory areas may be more than INT_MAX away from an executable fixup
(e.g. stack and heap too far away from executable memory with the fixup).

Since clearly no one has been using this code for a while now, and similar
tests exist in LKDTM, this should just be removed entirely.

x86/mm: Always enable CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and remove the Kconfig option

2016-02-22T07:51:38+00:00

This removes the CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA option and makes it always enabled.

This simplifies the code and also makes it clearer that read-only mapped
memory is just as fundamental a security feature in kernel-space as it is
in user-space.

x86/cpufeature: Replace the old static_cpu_has() with safe variant

2016-01-30T10:22:18+00:00

So the old one didn't work properly before alternatives had run.
And it was supposed to provide an optimized JMP because the
assumption was that the offset it is jumping to is within a
signed byte and thus a two-byte JMP.

So I did an x86_64 allyesconfig build and dumped all possible
sites where static_cpu_has() was used. The optimization amounted
to all in all 12(!) places where static_cpu_has() had generated
a 2-byte JMP. Which has saved us a whopping 36 bytes!

This clearly is not worth the trouble so we can remove it. The
only place where the optimization might count - in __switch_to()
- we will handle differently. But that's not subject of this
patch.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

2016-01-14T03:15:14+00:00

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "The bulk of this has appeared in -next and independently received a
  build success notification from the kbuild robot.  The 'for-4.5/block-
  dax' topic branch was rebased over the weekend to drop the "block
  device end-of-life" rework that Al would like to see re-implemented
  with a notifier, and to address bug reports against the badblocks
  integration.

  There is pending feedback against "libnvdimm: Add a poison list and
  export badblocks" received last week.  Linda identified some localized
  fixups that we will handle incrementally.

  Summary:

   - Media error handling: The 'badblocks' implementation that
     originated in md-raid is up-levelled to a generic capability of a
     block device.  This initial implementation is limited to being
     consulted in the pmem block-i/o path.  Later, 'badblocks' will be
     consulted when creating dax mappings.

   - Raw block device dax: For virtualization and other cases that want
     large contiguous mappings of persistent memory, add the capability
     to dax-mmap a block device directly.

   - Increased /dev/mem restrictions: Add an option to treat all
     io-memory as IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE, i.e. disable /dev/mem access
     while a driver is actively using an address range.  This behavior
     is controlled via the new CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM option and can be
     overridden by the existing "iomem=relaxed" kernel command line
     option.

   - Miscellaneous fixes include a 'pfn'-device huge page alignment fix,
     block device shutdown crash fix, and other small libnvdimm fixes"
