cpu_current_top_of_stack is currently stored in TSS.sp1. TSS is exposed
through the cpu_entry_area which is visible with user CR3 when PTI is
enabled and active.
This makes it a coveted fruit for attackers. An attacker can fetch the
kernel stack top from it and continue next steps of actions based on the
kernel stack.
But it is actualy not necessary to be stored in the TSS. It is only
accessed after the entry code switched to kernel CR3 and kernel GS_BASE
which means it can be in any regular percpu variable.
The reason why it is in TSS is historical (pre PTI) because TSS is also
used as scratch space in SYSCALL_64 and therefore cache hot.
A syscall also needs the per CPU variable current_task and eventually
__preempt_count, so placing cpu_current_top_of_stack next to them makes it
likely that they end up in the same cache line which should avoid
performance regressions. This is not enforced as the compiler is free to
place these variables, so these entry relevant variables should move into
a data structure to make this enforceable.
The seccomp_benchmark doesn't show any performance loss in the "getpid
native" test result. Actually, the result changes from 93ns before to 92ns
with this change when KPTI is disabled. The test is very stable and
although the test doesn't show a higher degree of precision it gives enough
confidence that moving cpu_current_top_of_stack does not cause a
regression.

Patch series "mm: cleanup usage of <asm/pgalloc.h>"
Most architectures have very similar versions of pXd_alloc_one() and
pXd_free_one() for intermediate levels of page table. These patches add
generic versions of these functions in <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> and enable
use of the generic functions where appropriate.
In addition, functions declared and defined in <asm/pgalloc.h> headers are
used mostly by core mm and early mm initialization in arch and there is no
actual reason to have the <asm/pgalloc.h> included all over the place.
The first patch in this series removes unneeded includes of
<asm/pgalloc.h>
In the end it didn't work out as neatly as I hoped and moving
pXd_alloc_track() definitions to <asm-generic/pgalloc.h> would require
unnecessary changes to arches that have custom page table allocations, so
I've decided to move lib/ioremap.c to mm/ and make pgalloc-track.h local
to mm/.
This patch (of 8):
In most cases <asm/pgalloc.h> header is required only for allocations of
page table memory. Most of the .c files that include that header do not
use symbols declared in <asm/pgalloc.h> and do not require that header.
As for the other header files that used to include <asm/pgalloc.h>, it is
possible to move that include into the .c file that actually uses symbols
from <asm/pgalloc.h> and drop the include from the header file.
The process was somewhat automated using
sed -i -E '/[<"]asm\/pgalloc\.h/d' \
$(grep -L -w -f /tmp/xx \
$(git grep -E -l '[<"]asm/pgalloc\.h'))
where /tmp/xx contains all the symbols defined in
arch/*/include/asm/pgalloc.h.

The entry rework moved interrupt entry code from the irqentry to the
noinstr section which made the irqentry section empty.
This breaks boundary checks which rely on the __irqentry_text_start/end
markers to find out whether a function in a stack trace is
interrupt/exception entry code. This affects the function graph tracer and
filter_irq_stacks().
As the IDT entry points are all sequentialy emitted this is rather simple
to unbreak by injecting __irqentry_text_start/end as global labels.
To make this work correctly:
- Remove the IRQENTRY_TEXT section from the x86 linker script
- Define __irqentry so it breaks the build if it's used
- Adjust the entry mirroring in PTI
- Remove the redundant kprobes and unwinder bound checks

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.
The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.
Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.
static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}
static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}
These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.
For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.
These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.
This patch (of 12):
The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.
The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:
for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
done

When PTI is disabled at boot time either because the CPU is not affected or
PTI has been disabled on the command line, the boot code still calls into
pti_finalize() which then unconditionally invokes:
pti_clone_entry_text()
pti_clone_kernel_text()
pti_clone_kernel_text() was called unconditionally before the 32bit support
was added and 32bit added the call to pti_clone_entry_text().
The call has no side effects as cloning the page tables into the available
second one, which was allocated for PTI does not create damage. But it does
not make sense either and in case that this functionality would be extended
later this might actually lead to hard to diagnose issues.
Neither function should be called when PTI is runtime disabled. Make the
invocation conditional.

pti_clone_pmds() assumes that the supplied address is either:
- properly PUD/PMD aligned
or
- the address is actually mapped which means that independently
of the mapping level (PUD/PMD/PTE) the next higher mapping
exists.
If that's not the case the unaligned address can be incremented by PUD or
PMD size incorrectly. All callers supply mapped and/or aligned addresses,
but for the sake of robustness it's better to handle that case properly and
to emit a warning.

The SYSCALL64 trampoline has a couple of nice properties:
- The usual sequence of SWAPGS followed by two GS-relative accesses to
set up RSP is somewhat slow because the GS-relative accesses need
to wait for SWAPGS to finish. The trampoline approach allows
RIP-relative accesses to set up RSP, which avoids the stall.
- The trampoline avoids any percpu access before CR3 is set up,
which means that no percpu memory needs to be mapped in the user
page tables. This prevents using Meltdown to read any percpu memory
outside the cpu_entry_area and prevents using timing leaks
to directly locate the percpu areas.
The downsides of using a trampoline may outweigh the upsides, however.
It adds an extra non-contiguous I$ cache line to system calls, and it
forces an indirect jump to transfer control back to the normal kernel
text after CR3 is set up. The latter is because x86 lacks a 64-bit
direct jump instruction that could jump from the trampoline to the entry
text. With retpolines enabled, the indirect jump is extremely slow.
Change the code to map the percpu TSS into the user page tables to allow
the non-trampoline SYSCALL64 path to work under PTI. This does not add a
new direct information leak, since the TSS is readable by Meltdown from the
cpu_entry_area alias regardless. It does allow a timing attack to locate
the percpu area, but KASLR is more or less a lost cause against local
attack on CPUs vulnerable to Meltdown regardless. As far as I'm concerned,
on current hardware, KASLR is only useful to mitigate remote attacks that
try to attack the kernel without first gaining RCE against a vulnerable
user process.
On Skylake, with CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y and KPTI on, this reduces syscall
overhead from ~237ns to ~228ns.
There is a possible alternative approach: Move the trampoline within 2G of
the entry text and make a separate copy for each CPU. This would allow a
direct jump to rejoin the normal entry path. There are pro's and con's for
this approach:
+ It avoids a pipeline stall
- It executes from an extra page and read from another extra page during
the syscall. The latter is because it needs to use a relative
addressing mode to find sp1 -- it's the same *cacheline*, but accessed
using an alias, so it's an extra TLB entry.
- Slightly more memory. This would be one page per CPU for a simple
implementation and 64-ish bytes per CPU or one page per node for a more
complex implementation.
- More code complexity.
The current approach is chosen for simplicity and because the alternative
does not provide a significant benefit, which makes it worth.

Merge L1 Terminal Fault fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"L1TF, aka L1 Terminal Fault, is yet another speculative hardware
engineering trainwreck. It's a hardware vulnerability which allows
unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in the
Level 1 Data Cache when the page table entry controlling the virtual
address, which is used for the access, has the Present bit cleared or
other reserved bits set.
If an instruction accesses a virtual address for which the relevant
page table entry (PTE) has the Present bit cleared or other reserved
bits set, then speculative execution ignores the invalid PTE and loads
the referenced data if it is present in the Level 1 Data Cache, as if
the page referenced by the address bits in the PTE was still present
and accessible.
While this is a purely speculative mechanism and the instruction will
raise a page fault when it is retired eventually, the pure act of
loading the data and making it available to other speculative
instructions opens up the opportunity for side channel attacks to
unprivileged malicious code, similar to the Meltdown attack.
While Meltdown breaks the user space to kernel space protection, L1TF
allows to attack any physical memory address in the system and the
attack works across all protection domains. It allows an attack of SGX
and also works from inside virtual machines because the speculation
bypasses the extended page table (EPT) protection mechanism.
The assoicated CVEs are: CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, CVE-2018-3646
The mitigations provided by this pull request include:
- Host side protection by inverting the upper address bits of a non
present page table entry so the entry points to uncacheable memory.
- Hypervisor protection by flushing L1 Data Cache on VMENTER.
- SMT (HyperThreading) control knobs, which allow to 'turn off' SMT
by offlining the sibling CPU threads. The knobs are available on
the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs
- Control knobs for the hypervisor mitigation, related to L1D flush
and SMT control. The knobs are available on the kernel command line
and at runtime via sysfs
- Extensive documentation about L1TF including various degrees of
mitigations.
Thanks to all people who have contributed to this in various ways -
patches, review, testing, backporting - and the fruitful, sometimes
heated, but at the end constructive discussions.
There is work in progress to provide other forms of mitigations, which
might be less horrible performance wise for a particular kind of
workloads, but this is not yet ready for consumption due to their
complexity and limitations"

The user page-table gets the updated kernel mappings in pti_finalize(),
which runs after the RO+X permissions got applied to the kernel page-table
in mark_readonly().
But with CONFIG_DEBUG_WX enabled, the user page-table is already checked in
mark_readonly() for insecure mappings. This causes false-positive
warnings, because the user page-table did not get the updated mappings yet.
Move the W+X check for the user page-table into pti_finalize() after it
updated all required mappings.

On 32 bit the kernel sections are not huge-page aligned. When we clone
them on PMD-level we unevitably map some areas that are normal kernel
memory and may contain secrets to user-space. To prevent that we need to
clone the kernel-image on PTE-level for 32 bit.
Also make the page-table cloning code more general so that it can handle
PMD and PTE level cloning. This can be generalized further in the future to
also handle clones on the P4D-level.

The function sets the global-bit on cloned PMD entries, which only makes
sense when the permissions are identical between the user and the kernel
page-table. Further, only write-permissions are cleared for entry-text and
kernel-text sections, which are not writeable at the end of the boot
process.
The reason why this RW clearing exists is that in the early PTI
implementations the cloned kernel areas were set up during early boot
before the kernel text is set to read only and not touched afterwards.
This is not longer true. The cloned areas are still set up early to get the
entry code working for interrupts and other things, but after the kernel
text has been set RO the clone is repeated which copies the RO PMD/PTEs
over to the user visible clone. That means the initial clearing of the
writable bit can be avoided.

The kernel image starts out with the Global bit set across the entire
kernel image. The bit is cleared with set_memory_nonglobal() in the
configurations with PCIDs where the performance benefits of the Global bit
are not needed.
However, this is fragile. It means that we are stuck opting *out* of the
less-secure (Global bit set) configuration, which seems backwards. Let's
start more secure (Global bit clear) and then let things opt back in if
they want performance, or are truly mapping common data between kernel and
userspace.
This fixes a bug. Before this patch, there are areas that are unmapped
from the user page tables (like like everything above 0xffffffff82600000 in
the example below). These have the hallmark of being a wrong Global area:
they are not identical in the 'current_kernel' and 'current_user' page
table dumps. They are also read-write, which means they're much more
likely to contain secrets.

The next patch in this series will have to make the definition of
irq_cpustat_t available to entering_irq().
Inclusion of asm/hardirq.h into asm/apic.h would cause circular header
dependencies like
asm/smp.h
asm/apic.h
asm/hardirq.h
linux/irq.h
linux/topology.h
linux/smp.h
asm/smp.h
or
linux/gfp.h
linux/mmzone.h
asm/mmzone.h
asm/mmzone_64.h
asm/smp.h
asm/apic.h
asm/hardirq.h
linux/irq.h
linux/irqdesc.h
linux/kobject.h
linux/sysfs.h
linux/kernfs.h
linux/idr.h
linux/gfp.h
and others.
This causes compilation errors because of the header guards becoming
effective in the second inclusion: symbols/macros that had been defined
before wouldn't be available to intermediate headers in the #include chain
anymore.
A possible workaround would be to move the definition of irq_cpustat_t
into its own header and include that from both, asm/hardirq.h and
asm/apic.h.
However, this wouldn't solve the real problem, namely asm/harirq.h
unnecessarily pulling in all the linux/irq.h cruft: nothing in
asm/hardirq.h itself requires it. Also, note that there are some other
archs, like e.g. arm64, which don't have that #include in their
asm/hardirq.h.
Remove the linux/irq.h #include from x86' asm/hardirq.h.
Fix resulting compilation errors by adding appropriate #includes to *.c
files as needed.
Note that some of these *.c files could be cleaned up a bit wrt. to their
set of #includes, but that should better be done from separate patches, if
at all.

Mapping the kernel text area to user-space makes only sense if it has the
same permissions as in the kernel page-table. If permissions are different
this will cause a TLB reload when using the kernel page-table, which is as
good as not mapping it at all.
On 64-bit kernels this patch makes no difference, as the whole range cloned
by pti_clone_kernel_text() is mapped RO anyway. On 32 bit there are
writeable mappings in the range, so just keep the permissions as they are.

The pti_clone_kernel_text() function references __end_rodata_hpage_align,
which is only present on x86-64. This makes sense as the end of the rodata
section is not huge-page aligned on 32 bit.
Nevertheless a symbol is required for the function that points at the right
address for both 32 and 64 bit. Introduce __end_rodata_aligned for that
purpose and use it in pti_clone_kernel_text().

commit 26d35ca6c3776784f8156e1d6f80cc60d9a2a915
RANDSTRUCT derives its hardening benefits from the attacker's lack of
knowledge about the layout of kernel data structures. Keep the kernel
image non-global in cases where RANDSTRUCT is in use to help keep the
layout a secret.

commit abb67605203687c8b7943d760638d0301787f8d9
Kees reported to me that I made too much of the kernel image global.
It was far more than just text:
I think this is too much set global: _end is after data,
bss, and brk, and all kinds of other stuff that could
hold secrets. I think this should match what
mark_rodata_ro() is doing.
This does exactly that. We use __end_rodata_hpage_align as our
marker both because it is huge-page-aligned and it does not contain
any sections we expect to hold secrets.
Kees's logic was that r/o data is in the kernel image anyway and,
in the case of traditional distributions, can be freely downloaded
from the web, so there's no reason to hide it.

Global pages are bad for hardening because they potentially let an
exploit read the kernel image via a Meltdown-style attack which
makes it easier to find gadgets.
But, global pages are good for performance because they reduce TLB
misses when making user/kernel transitions, especially when PCIDs
are not available, such as on older hardware, or where a hypervisor
has disabled them for some reason.
This patch implements a basic, sane policy: If you have PCIDs, you
only map a minimal amount of kernel text global. If you do not have
PCIDs, you map all kernel text global.
This policy effectively makes PCIDs something that not only adds
performance but a little bit of hardening as well.
I ran a simple "lseek" microbenchmark[1] to test the benefit on
a modern Atom microserver. Most of the benefit comes from applying
the series before this patch ("entry only"), but there is still a
signifiant benefit from this patch.
No Global Lines (baseline ): 6077741 lseeks/sec
88 Global Lines (entry only): 7528609 lseeks/sec (+23.9%)
94 Global Lines (this patch): 8433111 lseeks/sec (+38.8%)

Summary:
In current kernels, with PTI enabled, no pages are marked Global. This
potentially increases TLB misses. But, the mechanism by which the Global
bit is set and cleared is rather haphazard. This patch makes the process
more explicit. In the end, it leaves us with Global entries in the page
tables for the areas truly shared by userspace and kernel and increases
TLB hit rates.
The place this patch really shines in on systems without PCIDs. In this
case, we are using an lseek microbenchmark[1] to see how a reasonably
non-trivial syscall behaves. Higher is better:
No Global pages (baseline): 6077741 lseeks/sec
88 Global Pages (this set): 7528609 lseeks/sec (+23.9%)
On a modern Skylake desktop with PCIDs, the benefits are tangible, but not
huge for a kernel compile (lower is better):
No Global pages (baseline): 186.951 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.35% )
28 Global pages (this set): 185.756 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.09% )
-1.195 seconds (-0.64%)
I also re-checked everything using the lseek1 test[1]:
No Global pages (baseline): 15783951 lseeks/sec
28 Global pages (this set): 16054688 lseeks/sec
+270737 lseeks/sec (+1.71%)
The effect is more visible, but still modest.
Details:
The kernel page tables are inherited from head_64.S which rudely marks
them as _PAGE_GLOBAL. For PTI, we have been relying on the grace of
$DEITY and some insane behavior in pageattr.c to clear _PAGE_GLOBAL.
This patch tries to do better.
First, stop filtering out "unsupported" bits from being cleared in the
pageattr code. It's fine to filter out *setting* these bits but it
is insane to keep us from clearing them.
Then, *explicitly* go clear _PAGE_GLOBAL from the kernel identity map.
Do not rely on pageattr to do it magically.
After this patch, we can see that "GLB" shows up in each copy of the
page tables, that we have the same number of global entries in each
and that they are the *same* entries.
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_kernel:11
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_user:11
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/kernel:11
9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d current_kernel.GLB
9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d current_user.GLB
9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d kernel.GLB
A quick visual audit also shows that all the entries make sense.
0xfffffe0000000000 is the cpu_entry_area and 0xffffffff81c00000
is the entry/exit text:
0xfffffe0000000000-0xfffffe0000002000 8K ro GLB NX pte
0xfffffe0000002000-0xfffffe0000003000 4K RW GLB NX pte

The entry/exit text and cpu_entry_area are mapped into userspace and
the kernel. But, they are not _PAGE_GLOBAL. This creates unnecessary
TLB misses.

The following code contains dead logic:
162 if (pgd_none(*pgd)) {
163 unsigned long new_p4d_page = __get_free_page(gfp);
164 if (!new_p4d_page)
165 return NULL;
166
167 if (pgd_none(*pgd)) {
168 set_pgd(pgd, __pgd(_KERNPG_TABLE | __pa(new_p4d_page)));
169 new_p4d_page = 0;
170 }
171 if (new_p4d_page)
172 free_page(new_p4d_page);
173 }
There can't be any difference between two pgd_none(*pgd) at L162 and L167,
so it's always false at L171.
Dave Hansen explained:
Yes, the double-test was part of an optimization where we attempted to
avoid using a global spinlock in the fork() path. We would check for
unallocated mid-level page tables without the lock. The lock was only
taken when we needed to *make* an entry to avoid collisions.
Now that it is all single-threaded, there is no chance of a collision,
no need for a lock, and no need for the re-check.
As all these functions are only called during init, mark them __init as
well.

Meelis reported that his K8 Athlon64 emits MCE warnings when PTI is
enabled:
[Hardware Error]: Error Addr: 0x0000ffff81e000e0
[Hardware Error]: MC1 Error: L1 TLB multimatch.
[Hardware Error]: cache level: L1, tx: INSN
The address is in the entry area, which is mapped into kernel _AND_ user
space. That's special because we switch CR3 while we are executing
there.
User mapping:
0xffffffff81e00000-0xffffffff82000000 2M ro PSE GLB x pmd
Kernel mapping:
0xffffffff81000000-0xffffffff82000000 16M ro PSE x pmd
So the K8 is complaining that the TLB entries differ. They differ in the
GLB bit.
Drop the GLB bit when installing the user shared mapping.

point where it is copied into the user page table the RW bit has not been
