Subject: [PATCH 4.4 13/37] kaiser: kaiser_remove_mapping() move along the pgd

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


When removing the bogus comment from kaiser_remove_mapping(),
I really ought to have checked the extent of its bogosity: as
Neel points out, there is nothing to stop unmap_pud_range_nofree()
from continuing beyond the end of a pud (and starting in the wrong
position on the next).

Fix kaiser_remove_mapping() to constrain the extent and advance pgd
pointer correctly: use pgd_addr_end() macro as used throughout base
mm (but don't assume page-rounded start and size in this case).

But this bug was very unlikely to trigger in this backport: since
any buddy allocation is contained within a single pud extent, and
we are not using vmapped stacks (and are only mapping one page of
stack anyway): the only way to hit this bug here would be when
freeing a large modified ldt.

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 16/37] kaiser: delete KAISER_REAL_SWITCH option

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


We fail to see what CONFIG_KAISER_REAL_SWITCH is for: it seems to be
left over from early development, and now just obscures tricky parts
of the code. Delete it before adding PCIDs, or nokaiser boot option.

(Or if there is some good reason to keep the option, then it needs
a help text - and a "depends on KAISER", so that all those without
KAISER are not asked the question.)

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 02/37] KAISER: Kernel Address Isolation

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Richard Fellner <[email protected]>


This patch introduces our implementation of KAISER (Kernel Address Isolation to
have Side-channels Efficiently Removed), a kernel isolation technique to close
hardware side channels on kernel address information.

More information about the patch can be found on:

https://github.com/IAIK/KAISER

X-Subject: [RFC, PATCH] x86_64: KAISER - do not map kernel in user mode

After several recent works [1,2,3] KASLR on x86_64 was basically
considered dead by many researchers. We have been working on an
efficient but effective fix for this problem and found that not mapping
the kernel space when running in user mode is the solution to this
problem [4] (the corresponding paper [5] will be presented at ESSoS17).

With this RFC patch we allow anybody to configure their kernel with the
flag CONFIG_KAISER to add our defense mechanism.

If there are any questions we would love to answer them.
We also appreciate any comments!

Cheers,
Daniel (+ the KAISER team from Graz University of Technology)

+ * but includes the whole user memory. Within a kernel context switch, or when an interrupt is handled,
+ * the pgd is switched to the normal one. When the system switches to user mode, the shadow pgd is enabled.
+ * By this, the virtual memory chaches are freed, and the user may not attack the whole kernel memory.
+ *
+ * A minimalistic kernel mapping holds the parts needed to be mapped in user mode, as the entry/exit functions
+ * of the user space, or the stacks.

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 20/37] kaiser: PCID 0 for kernel and 128 for user

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


Why was 4 chosen for kernel PCID and 6 for user PCID?
No good reason in a backport where PCIDs are only used for Kaiser.

If we continue with those, then we shall need to add Andy Lutomirski's
4.13 commit 6c690ee1039b ("x86/mm: Split read_cr3() into read_cr3_pa()
and __read_cr3()"), which deals with the problem of read_cr3() callers
finding stray bits in the cr3 that they expected to be page-aligned;
and for hibernation, his 4.14 commit f34902c5c6c0 ("x86/hibernate/64:
Mask off CR3's PCID bits in the saved CR3").

But if 0 is used for kernel PCID, then there's no need to add in those
commits - whenever the kernel looks, it sees 0 in the lower bits; and
0 for kernel seems an obvious choice.

And I naughtily propose 128 for user PCID. Because there's a place
in _SWITCH_TO_USER_CR3 where it takes note of the need for TLB FLUSH,
but needs to reset that to NOFLUSH for the next occasion. Currently
it does so with a "movb $(0x80)" into the high byte of the per-cpu
quadword, but that will cause a machine without PCID support to crash.
Now, if %al just happened to have 0x80 in it at that point, on a
machine with PCID support, but 0 on a machine without PCID support...

(That will go badly wrong once the pgd can be at a physical address
above 2^56, but even with 5-level paging, physical goes up to 2^52.)

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 22/37] kaiser: paranoid_entry pass cr3 need to paranoid_exit

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


Neel Natu points out that paranoid_entry() was wrong to assume that
an entry that did not need swapgs would not need SWITCH_KERNEL_CR3:
paranoid_entry (used for debug breakpoint, int3, double fault or MCE;
though I think it's only the MCE case that is cause for concern here)
can break in at an awkward time, between cr3 switch and swapgs, but
its handling always needs kernel gs and kernel cr3.

Easy to fix in itself, but paranoid_entry() also needs to convey to
paranoid_exit() (and my reading of macro idtentry says paranoid_entry
and paranoid_exit are always paired) how to restore the prior state.
The swapgs state is already conveyed by %ebx (0 or 1), so extend that
also to convey when SWITCH_USER_CR3 will be needed (2 or 3).

(Yes, I'd much prefer that 0 meant no swapgs, whereas it's the other
way round: and a convention shared with error_entry() and error_exit(),
which I don't want to touch. Perhaps I should have inverted the bit
for switch cr3 too, but did not.)

paranoid_exit() would be straightforward, except for TRACE_IRQS: it
did TRACE_IRQS_IRETQ when doing swapgs, but TRACE_IRQS_IRETQ_DEBUG
when not: which is it supposed to use when SWITCH_USER_CR3 is split
apart from that? As best as I can determine, commit 5963e317b1e9
("ftrace/x86: Do not change stacks in DEBUG when calling lockdep")
missed the swapgs case, and should have used TRACE_IRQS_IRETQ_DEBUG
there too (the discrepancy has nothing to do with the liberal use
of _NO_STACK and _UNSAFE_STACK hereabouts: TRACE_IRQS_OFF_DEBUG has
just been used in all cases); discrepancy lovingly preserved across
several paranoid_exit() cleanups, but I'm now removing it.

Neel further indicates that to use SWITCH_USER_CR3_NO_STACK there in
paranoid_exit() is now not only unnecessary but unsafe: might corrupt
syscall entry's unsafe_stack_register_backup of %rax. Just use
SWITCH_USER_CR3: and delete SWITCH_USER_CR3_NO_STACK altogether,
before we make the mistake of using it again.

hughd adds: this commit fixes an issue in the Kaiser-without-PCIDs
part of the series, and ought to be moved earlier, if you decided
to make a release of Kaiser-without-PCIDs.

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 05/37] kaiser: stack map PAGE_SIZE at THREAD_SIZE-PAGE_SIZE

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


Kaiser only needs to map one page of the stack; and
kernel/fork.c did not build on powerpc (no __PAGE_KERNEL).
It's all cleaner if linux/kaiser.h provides kaiser_map_thread_stack()
and kaiser_unmap_thread_stack() wrappers around asm/kaiser.h's
kaiser_add_mapping() and kaiser_remove_mapping(). And use
linux/kaiser.h in init/main.c to avoid the #ifdefs there.

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


Include linux/kaiser.h instead of asm/kaiser.h to build ldt.c without
CONFIG_KAISER. kaiser_add_mapping() does already return an error code,
so fix the FIXME.

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 30/37] kaiser: asm/tlbflush.h handle noPGE at lower level

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


I found asm/tlbflush.h too twisty, and think it safer not to avoid
__native_flush_tlb_global_irq_disabled() in the kaiser_enabled case,
but instead let it handle kaiser_enabled along with cr3: it can just
use __native_flush_tlb() for that, no harm in re-disabling preemption.

(This is not the same change as Kirill and Dave have suggested for
upstream, flipping PGE in cr4: that's neat, but needs a cpu_has_pge
check; cr3 is enough for kaiser, and thought to be cheaper than cr4.)

Also delete the X86_FEATURE_INVPCID invpcid_flush_all_nonglobals()
preference from __native_flush_tlb(): unlike the invpcid_flush_all()
preference in __native_flush_tlb_global(), it's not seen in upstream
4.14, and was recently reported to be surprisingly slow.

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


I have not observed a might_sleep() warning from setup_fixmap_gdt()'s
use of kaiser_add_mapping() in our tree (why not?), but like upstream
we have not provided a way for that to pass is_atomic true down to
kaiser_pagetable_walk(), and at startup it's far from a likely source
of trouble: so just delete the walk's is_atomic arg and might_sleep().

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jiri Kosina <[email protected]>


Kaiser cannot be used on paravirtualized MMUs (namely reading and writing CR3).
This does not work with KAISER as the CR3 switch from and to user space PGD
would require to map the whole XEN_PV machinery into both.

More importantly, enabling KAISER on Xen PV doesn't make too much sense, as PV
guests use distinct %cr3 values for kernel and user already.

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


Let kaiser_flush_tlb_on_return_to_user() do the X86_FEATURE_PCID
check, instead of each caller doing it inline first: nobody needs
to optimize for the noPCID case, it's clearer this way, and better
suits later changes. Replace those no-op X86_CR3_PCID_KERN_FLUSH lines
by a BUILD_BUG_ON() in load_new_mm_cr3(), in case something changes.

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 07/37] kaiser: KAISER depends on SMP

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


It is absurd that KAISER should depend on SMP, but apparently nobody
has tried a UP build before: which breaks on implicit declaration of
function 'per_cpu_offset' in arch/x86/mm/kaiser.c.

Now, you would expect that to be trivially fixed up; but looking at
the System.map when that block is #ifdef'ed out of kaiser_init(),
I see that in a UP build __per_cpu_user_mapped_end is precisely at
__per_cpu_user_mapped_start, and the items carefully gathered into
that section for user-mapping on SMP, dispersed elsewhere on UP.

So, some other kind of section assignment will be needed on UP,
but implementing that is not a priority: just make KAISER depend
on SMP for now.

Also inserted a blank line before the option, tidied up the
brief Kconfig help message, and added an "If unsure, Y".

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


Avoid perf crashes: place debug_store in the user-mapped per-cpu area
instead of allocating, and use page allocator plus kaiser_add_mapping()
to keep the BTS and PEBS buffers user-mapped (that is, present in the
user mapping, though visible only to kernel and hardware). The PEBS
fixup buffer does not need this treatment.

The need for a user-mapped struct debug_store showed up before doing
any conscious perf testing: in a couple of kernel paging oopses on
Westmere, implicating the debug_store offset of the per-cpu area.

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 08/37] kaiser: fix regs to do_nmi() ifndef CONFIG_KAISER

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


pjt has observed that nmi's second (nmi_from_kernel) call to do_nmi()
adjusted the %rdi regs arg, rightly when CONFIG_KAISER, but wrongly
when not CONFIG_KAISER.

Although the minimal change is to add an #ifdef CONFIG_KAISER around
the addq line, that looks cluttered, and I prefer how the first call
to do_nmi() handled it: prepare args in %rdi and %rsi before getting
into the CONFIG_KAISER block, since it does not touch them at all.

And while we're here, place the "#ifdef CONFIG_KAISER" that follows
each, to enclose the "Unconditionally restore CR3" comment: matching
how the "Unconditionally use kernel CR3" comment above is enclosed.

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 28/37] kaiser: use ALTERNATIVE instead of x86_cr3_pcid_noflush

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


Now that we're playing the ALTERNATIVE game, use that more efficient
method: instead of user-mapping an extra page, and reading an extra
cacheline each time for x86_cr3_pcid_noflush.

Neel has found that __stringify(bts $X86_CR3_PCID_NOFLUSH_BIT, %rax)
is a working substitute for the "bts $63, %rax" in these ALTERNATIVEs;
but the one line with $63 in looks clearer, so let's stick with that.

Worried about what happens with an ALTERNATIVE between the jump and
jump label in another ALTERNATIVE? I was, but have checked the
combinations in SWITCH_KERNEL_CR3_NO_STACK at entry_SYSCALL_64,
and it does a good job.

native_pgd_clear() uses native_set_pgd(), so native_set_pgd() must
avoid setting the _PAGE_NX bit on an otherwise pgd_none() entry:
usually that just generated a warning on exit, but sometimes
more mysterious and damaging failures (our production machines
could not complete booting).

The original fix to this just avoided adding _PAGE_NX to
an empty entry; but eventually more problems surfaced with kexec,
and EFI mapping expected to be a problem too. So now instead
change native_set_pgd() to update shadow only if _PAGE_USER:

A few places (kernel/machine_kexec_64.c, platform/efi/efi_64.c for sure)
use set_pgd() to set up a temporary internal virtual address space, with
physical pages remapped at what Kaiser regards as userspace addresses:
Kaiser then assumes a shadow pgd follows, which it will try to corrupt.

This appears to be responsible for the recent kexec and kdump failures;
though it's unclear how those did not manifest as a problem before.
Ah, the shadow pgd will only be assumed to "follow" if the requested
pgd is on an even-numbered page: so I suppose it was going wrong 50%
of the time all along.

What we need is a flag to set_pgd(), to tell it we're dealing with
userspace. Er, isn't that what the pgd's _PAGE_USER bit is saying?
Add a test for that. But we cannot do the same for pgd_clear()
(which may be called to clear corrupted entries - set aside the
question of "corrupt in which pgd?" until later), so there just
rely on pgd_clear() not being called in the problematic cases -
with a WARN_ON_ONCE() which should fire half the time if it is.

But this is getting too big for an inline function: move it into
arch/x86/mm/kaiser.c (which then demands a boot/compressed mod);
and de-void and de-space native_get_shadow/normal_pgd() while here.

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 25/37] kaiser: add "nokaiser" boot option, using ALTERNATIVE

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


Added "nokaiser" boot option: an early param like "noinvpcid".
Most places now check int kaiser_enabled (#defined 0 when not
CONFIG_KAISER) instead of #ifdef CONFIG_KAISER; but entry_64.S
and entry_64_compat.S are using the ALTERNATIVE technique, which
patches in the preferred instructions at runtime. That technique
is tied to x86 cpu features, so X86_FEATURE_KAISER is fabricated.

Prior to "nokaiser", Kaiser #defined _PAGE_GLOBAL 0: revert that,
but be careful with both _PAGE_GLOBAL and CR4.PGE: setting them when
nokaiser like when !CONFIG_KAISER, but not setting either when kaiser -
neither matters on its own, but it's hard to be sure that _PAGE_GLOBAL
won't get set in some obscure corner, or something add PGE into CR4.
By omitting _PAGE_GLOBAL from __supported_pte_mask when kaiser_enabled,
all page table setup which uses pte_pfn() masks it out of the ptes.

It's slightly shameful that the same declaration versus definition of
kaiser_enabled appears in not one, not two, but in three header files
(asm/kaiser.h, asm/pgtable.h, asm/tlbflush.h). I felt safer that way,
than with #including any of those in any of the others; and did not
feel it worth an asm/kaiser_enabled.h - kernel/cpu/common.c includes
them all, so we shall hear about it if they get out of synch.

Cleanups while in the area: removed the silly #ifdef CONFIG_KAISER
from kaiser.c; removed the unused native_get_normal_pgd(); removed
the spurious reg clutter from SWITCH_*_CR3 macro stubs; corrected some
comments. But more interestingly, set CR4.PSE in secondary_startup_64:
the manual is clear that it does not matter whether it's 0 or 1 when
4-level-pts are enabled, but I was distracted to find cr4 different on
BSP and auxiliaries - BSP alone was adding PSE, in probe_page_size_mask().

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 23/37] kaiser: _pgd_alloc() without __GFP_REPEAT to avoid stalls

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


Synthetic filesystem mempressure testing has shown softlockups, with
hour-long page allocation stalls, and pgd_alloc() trying for order:1
with __GFP_REPEAT in one of the backtraces each time.

That's _pgd_alloc() going for a Kaiser double-pgd, using the __GFP_REPEAT
common to all page table allocations, but actually having no effect on
order:0 (see should_alloc_oom() and should_continue_reclaim() in this
tree, but beware that ports to another tree might behave differently).

Order:1 stack allocation has been working satisfactorily without
__GFP_REPEAT forever, and page table allocation only asks __GFP_REPEAT
for awkward occasions in a long-running process: it's not appropriate
at fork or exec time, and seems to be doing much more harm than good:
getting those contiguous pages under very heavy mempressure can be
hard (though even without it, Kaiser does generate more mempressure).

Mask out that __GFP_REPEAT inside _pgd_alloc(). Why not take it out
of the PGALLOG_GFP altogether, as v4.7 commit a3a9a59d2067 ("x86: get
rid of superfluous __GFP_REPEAT") did? Because I think that might
make a difference to our page table memcg charging, which I'd prefer
not to interfere with at this time.

hughd adds: __alloc_pages_slowpath() in the 4.4.89-stable tree handles
__GFP_REPEAT a little differently than in prod kernel or 3.18.72-stable,
so it may not always be exactly a no-op on order:0 pages, as said above;
but I think still appropriate to omit it from Kaiser or non-Kaiser pgd.

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 21/37] kaiser: x86_cr3_pcid_noflush and x86_cr3_pcid_user

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


Mostly this commit is just unshouting X86_CR3_PCID_KERN_VAR and
X86_CR3_PCID_USER_VAR: we usually name variables in lower-case.

But why does x86_cr3_pcid_noflush need to be __aligned(PAGE_SIZE)?
Ah, it's a leftover from when kaiser_add_user_map() once complained
about mapping the same page twice. Make it __read_mostly instead.
(I'm a little uneasy about all the unrelated data which shares its
page getting user-mapped too, but that was so before, and not a big
deal: though we call it user-mapped, it's not mapped with _PAGE_USER.)

And there is a little change around the two calls to do_nmi().
Previously they set the NOFLUSH bit (if PCID supported) when
forcing to kernel context before do_nmi(); now they also have the
NOFLUSH bit set (if PCID supported) when restoring context after:
nothing done in do_nmi() should require a TLB to be flushed here.

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 19/37] kaiser: load_new_mm_cr3() let SWITCH_USER_CR3 flush user

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


We have many machines (Westmere, Sandybridge, Ivybridge) supporting
PCID but not INVPCID: on these load_new_mm_cr3() simply crashed.

Flushing user context inside load_new_mm_cr3() without the use of
invpcid is difficult: momentarily switch from kernel to user context
and back to do so? I'm not sure whether that can be safely done at
all, and would risk polluting user context with kernel internals,
and kernel context with stale user externals.

Instead, follow the hint in the comment that was there: change
X86_CR3_PCID_USER_VAR to be a per-cpu variable, then load_new_mm_cr3()
can leave a note in it, for SWITCH_USER_CR3 on return to userspace to
flush user context TLB, instead of default X86_CR3_PCID_USER_NOFLUSH.

Which works well enough that there's no need to do it this way only
when invpcid is unsupported: it's a good alternative to invpcid here.
But there's a couple of inlines in asm/tlbflush.h that need to do the
same trick, so it's best to localize all this per-cpu business in
mm/kaiser.c: moving that part of the initialization from setup_pcid()
to kaiser_setup_pcid(); with kaiser_flush_tlb_on_return_to_user() the
function for noting an X86_CR3_PCID_USER_FLUSH. And let's keep a
KAISER_SHADOW_PGD_OFFSET in there, to avoid the extra OR on exit.

I did try to make the feature tests in asm/tlbflush.h more consistent
with each other: there seem to be far too many ways of performing such
tests, and I don't have a good grasp of their differences. At first
I converted them all to be static_cpu_has(): but that proved to be a
mistake, as the comment in __native_flush_tlb_single() hints; so then
I reversed and made them all this_cpu_has(). Probably all gratuitous
change, but that's the way it's working at present.

I am slightly bothered by the way non-per-cpu X86_CR3_PCID_KERN_VAR
gets re-initialized by each cpu (before and after these changes):
no problem when (as usual) all cpus on a machine have the same
features, but in principle incorrect. However, my experiment
to per-cpu-ify that one did not end well...

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 17/37] kaiser: vmstat show NR_KAISERTABLE as nr_overhead

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


The kaiser update made an interesting choice, never to free any shadow
page tables. Contention on global spinlock was worrying, particularly
with it held across page table scans when freeing. Something had to be
done: I was going to add refcounting; but simply never to free them is
an appealing choice, minimizing contention without complicating the code
(the more a page table is found already, the less the spinlock is used).

But leaking pages in this way is also a worry: can we get away with it?
At the very least, we need a count to show how bad it actually gets:
in principle, one might end up wasting about 1/256 of memory that way
(1/512 for when direct-mapped pages have to be user-mapped, plus 1/512
for when they are user-mapped from the vmalloc area on another occasion
(but we don't have vmalloc'ed stacks, so only large ldts are vmalloc'ed).

Add per-cpu stat NR_KAISERTABLE: including 256 at startup for the
shared pgd entries, and 1 for each intermediate page table added
thereafter for user-mapping - but leave out the 1 per mm, for its
shadow pgd, because that distracts from the monotonic increase.
Shown in /proc/vmstat as nr_overhead (0 if kaiser not enabled).

In practice, it doesn't look so bad so far: more like 1/12000 after
nine hours of gtests below; and movable pageblock segregation should
tend to cluster the kaiser tables into a subset of the address space
(if not, they will be bad for compaction too). But production may
tell a different story: keep an eye on this number, and bring back
lighter freeing if it gets out of control (maybe a shrinker).

Subject: [PATCH 4.4 14/37] kaiser: cleanups while trying for gold link

4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hugh Dickins <[email protected]>


While trying to get our gold link to work, four cleanups:
matched the gdt_page declaration to its definition;
in fiddling unsuccessfully with PERCPU_INPUT(), lined up backslashes;
lined up the backslashes according to convention in percpu-defs.h;
deleted the unused irq_stack_pointer addition to irq_stack_union.

Sad to report that aligning backslashes does not appear to help gold
align to 8192: but while these did not help, they are worth keeping.

Yes, unmap_pud_range_nofree()'s declaration ought to be in a
header file really, but I'm not sure we want to use it anyway:
so for now just declare it inside kaiser_remove_mapping().
And there doesn't seem to be such a thing as unmap_p4d_range(),
even in a 5-level paging tree.

Not that my feedback will matter much on this release since Pixel 2 XL
is an arm64 device but merged, compiled, and flashed successfully.

The changes to kernel/fork.c had to be slightly adjusted for Google's
tree due to their addition of mainline commit b235beea9e99 ("Clarify
naming of thread info/stack allocators").

No noticeable issues in general use or dmesg.

Thanks!

Results from Linaro’s test farm.
No regressions on arm64, arm and x86_64.

NOTE:
Retested 20 Iterations on two devices and all 40 times test completed
successfully.
Which confirms this is an intermittent timing failure.
For the internal investigation and record the bug has been reported.

Hey, it's good to know I didn't break anything :)

Ah, good to know, I'll watch out for that when I do the andoid-common
tree merges.

Thanks again for testing and letting me know.

I tried to bisect the problem, but when I try to boot only with:
"KAISER: Kernel Address Isolation" machine hangs during boot and
reboots without any panic message.

4.4.109 boots fine
4.9.75rc1 also boots fine.

Thank you,

Nope, it matches up with what is in SLES12 exactly, I must be missing

FWIW, v4.4.110-rc1 boots fine when merged into chromeos-4.4, on i7-7Y75.

When I start 4.4.110-rc1 on a virtual machine (qemu) init throws a
segfault and the kernel panics (attempted to kill init).
The VM host is a Haswell system.

The same kernel binary boots fine on a (other) Haswell system.

I tried:

4.4.110-rc1 broken
4.4.109 ok
4.9.75-rc1 ok

All systems are OpenSuSE 42.3 64bit.

qemu is started only with:
qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2048 -enable-kvm -drive
file=tvsuse,format=raw,if=none,id=virtdisk0 -device
virtio-blk-pci,scsi=off,drive=virtdisk0

Am I the only one who sees this? Has anyone booted that kernel on qemu?

Confused,

Thomas

Does 4.15-rc6 also work ok?

Any chance we can see the panic?

There's another error report of this same type of thing on this thread,
did you see that?

I did, but not on Haswell, and not with the same root file system.
It boots fine in qemu on E5-2690 v3.

Do you have a traceback ?

The oops looks like it *might* be this:

lock xadd %edx,0xc(%rax)

which is from the

int snap = atomic_add_return(0, &rdtp->dynticks);

in rcu_dynticks_snap() because %rax is 1 and that would give you the
invalid page fault and the right faulting address.

But that would be complete rcu data structure corruption (that rdtp
pointer comes from

per_cpu_ptr(rsp->rda, cpu)

in force_qs_rnp(), afaik.

The PTI patches obviously change percpu stuff, but this looks like an
odd place for that to manifest.

Yes. Slightly different kernel config, but it boots.

Is that useful? Are there some debug options I can add?

Not much of an oops, because the SIGSEGV happens in user space. The
only reason you get any kernel stack printout at all is because 'init'
dying will make the kernel print that out.

The segfault address for init looks like the fixmap area to me (first
byte in the last page of the fixmap?). "Error 5" means that it's a
user-space read that got a protection fault. So it's not a LDT of GDT
update or anything like that, it's a normal access from user space (or
a qemu emulation bug, but that sounds unlikely).

Is that the vsyscall page?

Adding Luto to the participants. I think he noticed one of the
vsyscall patches missing earlier in the 4.9 series. Maybe the 4.4
series had something similar..

That's almost certainly it.

I'll try to find some time today or tomorrow to add a proper selftest.

I'm hopeless on the FIXMAP arithmetic, but I'm pretty sure that
ffffffffff5ff000 is either VSYSCALL page or PVCLOCK page (I think it
was VVAR page when init segfaulted on it in my 3.2).

I'll forward Borislav's suggested 4.4 VSYSCALL patch from the kaiser
backports ml to Thomas, to see if that sorts his crash (forwarding in
the hope that gmail doesn't mess up the patch).

Seems odd that 4.4 should be broken but 4.9 not broken here, I'd
expect them to be equally known broken with respect to VSYSCALL; but
perhaps it's a matter of userspace trying different fallbacks
according to what kernel supports, and only hitting this on 4.4.

Nah, that's one page below VSYSCALL. Vvar is 0x7fff...

I don't have the actual screenshot, I think.

I don't think any current userspace is that dumb. But Go was still using vsyscall fairly recently.

I may be able to look for real tonight.

I tried cherry picking
435086b36f62 x86/vsyscall/64: Explicitly set _PAGE_USER in the
pagetable hierarchy

on top of 4.4.110-rc1, (needed to resolve a small 5level table to
4level page table conflict). Unfortunately, this does not solve the
panic/hanging problem I reported. For some reason I do not see the
panic message anymore. Machine hangs here:

[ 5.023063] page_owner is disabled
[ 5.026492] Key type trusted registered

Thanks for trying, but yes, I wouldn't expect a straight cherry-pick
of that to work in the context of 4.4.110: it needs to be
cherry-picked "in principle". Which Borislav has done, and I'll
forward you his (not yet reviewed) patch too, but frankly I've much
less hope that it will help your crash than Thomas's.

So please revert that cherry-pick; and if Borislav's patch doesn't
help, if you can send us a "Code:" line from the crash, that may still
give us more to go on.

As Linus remarked earlier, "The PTI patches obviously change percpu
stuff, but this looks like an odd place for that to manifest".
Exactly: segfault and panic when starting init is a "normal" symptom
when we get something wrong with Kaiser/PTI, but a kthread crashing in
dyntick_save_progress_counter is something new to me.

Based on the email threads, I expected to see issues, however,
compiled and booted on my test system. No dmesg regressions.

Yeah, it's the "lock xadd" as suspected:

0: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
5: 55 push %rbp
6: 31 d2 xor %edx,%edx
8: 48 8b 87 c8 00 00 00 mov 0xc8(%rdi),%rax
f: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
12:* f0 0f c1 50 0c lock xadd %edx,0xc(%rax)
<-- trapping instruction
17: 89 97 d0 00 00 00 mov %edx,0xd0(%rdi)
1d: 83 e2 01 and $0x1,%edx
20: b8 01 00 00 00 mov $0x1,%eax
25: 74 1d je 0x44

(that first "nop" is a 5-byte nop that is used for the function
tracing placeholder).

And %rax contains garbage (the value "1", rather than a valid kernel pointer).

Sadly, I have no idea about how that garbage came about.

This is also reported to crash if loaded under qemu + haxm under windows.
See https://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg2689835.html for details.
Here is a boot log (the log is from chromeos-4.4, but Tao Wu says that
the same log is also seen with vanilla v4.4.110-rc1).

The crash part of this problem may be solved with the following patch
(thanks to Hugh for the hint). There is still another problem, though -
with this patch applied, the qemu session aborts with "VCPU Shutdown
request", whatever that means.

Ok, it's unhappy because the RSVD bit is set in the error code.

And yeah, that seems to be due to NX in the pgd (nothing else is
certainly set), with presumably a virtual machine that doesn't support
it.

So I suspect your patch is indeed the right thing.

Presumably that is a triple fault.

That causes a reboot traditionally, and in a virtual environment that
would be approximated with a VCPU shutdown.

The crash part is not fixed by your patch here, w/wo I get this, and it
is PTI, as virgin 109 boots/works with identical everything else. ?My

Give this a shot:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/luto/linux.git/commit/?h=x86/pti&id=17c5ebeb2e00879b0af1a9c32bf37ecdd9b9b31b

Boot with each of vsyscall=none, vsyscall=native, and vsyscall=emulate
and run both the 32-bit and 64-bit variants of that test. All six
combinations should pass. But I bet they don't on 4.4.

Might I ask _what_ enterprise 4.4 kernels you are trying here? This
should be the identical set to what is in the SLES12 tree, which worries

SLE12-SP[23]-RT, currently 4.4.104 based. Parent trees boot fine in the
vm too. I thought perhaps it was a config difference, but seems not,
4.4.110-rc1 built with as close to enterprise config as you can get
blows up the same as my light config.

I get this same error with the latest 4.9-rc tree as well, but it works
just fine on 4.15-rc6.

I'll look at the proposed patches now for this...

Ok, we found two patches that were missing in 4.4-stable that were in
the SLES12 tree (thanks to Jamie Iles), now I only have 19k more to sift
through :)

I should probably do an "interm" release to get people to be able to
sync up to a common place easier for testing, dealing with patch sets
and random emails saying different git ids is not easy for anyone.

Very good catch, this mirrors almost what is in 4.14 in this area. I'll
go queue this up for 4.9 and 4.4 stable trees.

As you know, in enterprise, uname -r means you might find something
this old in your kernel if you look hard enough :)

I've now released 4.4.110, which had 4 more patches on top of what
4.4.109-rc1 had in it, that should hopefully resolve these issues.

Can you test that and let me know if you still have problems?

thanks,

Ick, like the others, I have no idea what happened here.

But, can you tgest 4.4.110 now? It has 4 more patches on top of what
you were testing with here for 4.4.110-rc1, that hopefully should
resolve this type of issue.

And if not, it would be good for us to know :)

thanks so much for testing,

That's good to know, hopefully 4.4.110-final also still works for you :)

It's fixed. I can boot 4.4.110 on qemu without problems so far.

./test_vsyscall_64 still fails though, like Kees wrote about 4.4.110-rc1
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/1/5/123

That's another issue?


Thank you very much.

Crap.

And 4.9.75 works for you just fine? Same with 4.15-rc6?

I'm wondering if this is some crazy gcc thing, given the ancient age of
what you are using (gcc 4.8.5). I haven't used 4.x in many many years,
is this what comes with RHEL6? What is the "base" distro you are
building this on, and anything special about the hardware being used
here?

Or is this a virtual machine? I've been seeing too many different
crashes lately to keep them all straight, sorry...

thanks,

I don't think so, I'm personally building with 4.7.4 and am not seeing
this with 4.4.110.

4.15-rc6 -> Rebooted twice no issues.
4.9.75 -> Rebooted twice no issues
4.4.110 -> hangs/reboots on every single reboot.

This looks like the KVM RSM issue. When you manage to run a buggy configuration (KVM + OVMF with secure boot support in the host, PCID (PTI or otherwise) and SMP in the guest), the first EFI call after AP bringup dies.

The actual failure is nasty. When one CPU calls into EFI, all the other CPUs die --they enter SMM and they don't come back out correctly. I think the best the guest could do is to try to generate a useful printk if this happens.

Update your host.

This patchset merges correctly with Gentoo patches and GCC version 6.4.0
The kernel boot up correctly.

Gah, too many emails.

Someone probably just needs to look at the EFI think code. Does it boot if you disable EFI support in the kernel (noefi boot option, I think, or maybe just compile it out.

Great, but Gentoo really should be moving to 4.9 and 4.14 here, I
hope no one running Gentoo is relying on 4.4 :)

It seems to be working. One patch to add for v4.4.111:

063fb3e56f6d ("x86/kasan: Write protect kasan zero shadow")

It is needed to be able to run KASAN enabled images in KVM.

I wish you luck. The 4.4 series is "KAISER", not "KPTI", and the
relevant code is spread all over the place and is generally garbage.
See, for example, the turd called kaiser_set_shadow_pgd(). I would
not be terribly surprised if that particular turd is biting here.

An alternative theory is that something is screwy in the EFI code. I
don't see anything directly wrong, but it's certainly a bit sketchy.
The newer kernels carefully avoid using PCID 0 for real work to avoid
corruption due to EFI and similar things. The "KAISER" code has no
such mitigation. Fortunately, it seems to use PCID=0 for kernel and
PCID=nonzero for user, so the obvious problem isn't present, but
something could still be wrong.

Pavel, can you send your /proc/cpuinfo on a noefi boot? (Just the
first CPU worth is fine.)

FWIW, I said before that I have very little desire to help debug
"KAISER". I stand by that.

I totally understand, and do not expect your help at all.

Worse case, I point people at 4.14 and tell them to upgrade, I'm not
going to waste a ton of time on this for the same exact reasons you list
here.

And yeah, kaiser_set_shadow_pgd() is horrid, I've already gotten sucked
into it for long enough...

The hardware works :) I meant that before the patch linked in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/1/5/534, I was never able to boot 4.4.110.
But with that patch applied, I was able to boot it at least once, but it
could be accidental. The hang/panic does not happen at the same time on
every boot.

However,

does build, and the only differences are:

I get the feeling that it was accidental: it seems to me that you have
a memory corruption problem, that gets shifted around by the different
patches (or "noefi" or "nopti").

Because yesterday your boots were able to get way beyond the "EFI
Variables Facility" message, and I can't imagine why the EFI issue
would not have been equally debilitating on yesterday's 110-rc, if it
were in play.

I did intend to ask you to send your System.map, for us to scan
through: maybe some variable is marked __init and should not be, then
the "Freeing unused kernel memory" frees it for random reuse.

But today you didn't get anywhere near the "Freeing unused kernel
memory", so that can't be it - or do you sometimes get that far today?

You mention that the hang/panic does not happen at the same time on
every boot: I think all I can ask is for you to keep supplying us with
different examples (console messages) of where it occurs, in the hope
that one of them will point us in the right direction.

And it even seems possible that this has nothing to do with the
4.4.110 changes - that 4.4.109 plus some other random patches would
unleash similar corruption. Though on balance that does seem unlikely.

Hi Hugh,

Thank you very much for your very thoughtful input.

I quiet positive this problem is PTI regression, because exactly the
same problem I see with kernel 4.1 to which I back-ported all the
necessary PTI patches from 4.4.110. I will provide this thread with more
information as I collect it. I will also try to root cause the problem.

The bug has memory corruption behavior, but with both 4.1 and 4.4
kernels problem goes away when I boot with noefi parameter. So, EFI +
PTI is the culprit for this memory corruption.

Thank you,
Pavel

Any chance you can grab the latest SLES 12 kernel and run it with pti
and efi enabled to see if that works properly for you or not? I trust
SUSE's testing of their kernel, and odds are I'm just missing one of
their many other patches they have in their tree for other issues that
they have seen in the past.

If you want, I can just send you the full patch that they run on top of
the latest 4.4 stable tree, so you don't have to dig it out of their git
repo if you can't find the binary image.

Hi Greg,

I cloned and built suse12, and it does not have issues with EFI + PTI
(kaiser) on my machine.

BTW, i have also reproduced this problem on another machine with the
same configuration, therefore, it is not specific only to one box.
Also, as I mentioned earlier I am seeing the same issue with 4.1 +
kaiser patches taken from 4.4.110.

Hi Greg,

I reverted suse12 back to:
13dae54cb229d078635f159dd8afe16ae683980b
x86/kaiser: Move feature detection up (bsc#1068032).

And, still do not see the problem. So, whatever fixes the issue comes
before kaiser.

Ok, thanks for the hint.

As I can't duplicate this here at all, any specifics as to what
hardware/procesor type this is?

I can punt and say just "use 4.9 on this hardware if you have it",
right? :)

I'll try to dig through the sles kernel some more, but given it is 20000
patches, and I can't actually test the problem myself, it's not exactly
easy going...

This should be fixed now, with a tweak to the device config to
enable relocating the ramdisk and dtb:

Indeed, this was due to a crash of the lavapdu daemon - it's back
on track now.

(On a side note, the tegra124-nyan-big is still failing to boot
in mainline due to a genuine kernel driver issue.)

Wait what?

According to https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html
4.4 should be the best bet for longest support, right? Does
that page need to be updated? If 4.4 is not going to be
supported, is there anything else with a possible 5-6 years
of support?

4.4 is going to be supported, yes, but really, for a desktop/server
system, why would you ever want to stick with it for anything longer
than a year? No new hardware support is added, and no new features that
you would want are in there.

The LTS kernels are for the crazy embedded people that don't change
their hardware systems, and have the insane huge number of out-of-tree
patches. No one else should be using those kernels, they should always
be using newer ones, as there are always more issues fixed in newer
kernels than older ones.

So again, I hope no one running Gentoo, which is a rolling, constantly
updated distro, is using the old and crusty 4.4 kernel release. To do
so is to defeat the purpose of relying on Gentoo in the first place...

It would be better, because that way the patch can be more easily
quoted and discussed.

That said, I do not see why this isn't an issue upstream too.

As far as I can tell, it's not just 4.4.110. Our current entry code
does that ADJUST_KERNEL_CR3 dance too, which clears the
PTI_SWITCH_MASK bit from cr3.

And that realmode trampoline pgd seems all to be just aligned to PAGE_SIZE.

Now, in the modern world, we generate new page tables for EFI, but we
still have that EFI_OLD_MEMMAP code that disables that. And afaik,
EFI_OLD_MEMMAP has the exact same problem that your patch fixes in 4.4
(where it's always on).

So I think this patch should go into the development kernel too.

Or maybe it already is, and I just haven't gotten it yet.

Or - even more likely - I'm missing something entirely, and even
EFI_OLD_MEMMAP solved this some other way upstream.

Adding Thomas Gleixner explicitly to the participants so that he can
tell me I'm a moron and point me to the right thing.

Nice, but why does this not show up in 4.9 and 4.14 and Linus's tree as
well on this hardware? Nor on the SLES12 SP3 kernel?

What is different there that 4.4 requires? That worries me more than
your fix (which looks good to me, fwiw.)

I really think it's simply that since v4.6, we've had commit
67a9108ed431 ("x86/efi: Build our own page table structures"), so no
normal EFI use actually uses the old legacy mapping unless you passed
in "efi=old_map" on the kernel command line.

So the bug is there in all versions, it's just that it's normally only
noticeable in 4.4.

But I might be missing some other difference, so take that with a pinch of salt.

Hi Greg,

I have not studied other versions of kernels, efi was changed
substantially since 4.4. But, even on 4.4.110 there are several things
have to happen for this bug to show-up:

1. During boot memmblock must allocate address that is not 2PAGE_SIZE
aligned.
2. nmi must arrive exactly when EFI replaced page table.

While I was debugging this problem, I tried to enable, kasan, vm_debug,
add more printfs etc, but every little change would cause this problem
to disappear, or appear less frequently.

Thank you,
Pavel

It's not. There is an efi oldmap fix pending, but that's a different story.

67a9108ed431 ("x86/efi: Build our own page table structures")

got rid of EFI depending on real_mode_header->trampoline_pgd

So I don't see how upstream needs the fix as the trampoline_pgd seems only
to be used when coming out of the boot loader.

Adding Matt. He stepped back from EFI, but he might still know.

So I think it only got rid of by default - the codepath is still
there, the allocation is still there, it's just that it's not actually
used unless somebody does that "efi=old_mmap" thing.

Looking around, there's at least one quirk for the SGI UV1 system that
enables EFI_OLD_MMAP automatically. There might be others that I
missed, but I think that's it.

So it *can* trigger without "efi=old_mmap", but not on any normal machines.

And as Pavel points out, even when the bug is active, it's pretty hard
to actually trigger.

But yeah, there may be other EFI patches that I didn't notice that
changed things in other ways too.

Yes, the trampoline_pgd is still around, but I can't figure out how it
would be used after boot. Confused, digging more.

The bug is not present in the latest upstream kernel because the efi_pgd is
correctly aligned:

arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_64.c
int __init efi_alloc_page_tables(void)
efi_pgd = (pgd_t *)__get_free_pages(gfp_mask, PGD_ALLOCATION_ORDER);

arch/x86/include/asm/pgalloc.h
+#ifdef CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION
+#define PGD_ALLOCATION_ORDER 1
+#else
+#define PGD_ALLOCATION_ORDER 0
+#endif

Pavel's patch fixes kernels prior to
67a9108ed431 ("x86/efi: Build our own page table structures")

where the efi pgd allocation looks like:

arch/x86/realmode/init.c
void __init reserve_real_mode(void)
mem = memblock_find_in_range(0, 1<<20, size, PAGE_SIZE);
base = __va(mem);
real_mode_header = (struct real_mode_header *) base;

void __init setup_real_mode(void)
trampoline_pgd = (u64 *) __va(real_mode_header->trampoline_pgd);

Kernel versions between 67a9108ed431 and the latest also have the bug and
need a similar fix:

arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_64.c

int __init efi_alloc_page_tables(void)
efi_pgd = (pgd_t *)__get_free_page(gfp_mask);

int __init efi_setup_page_tables(unsigned long pa_memmap, unsigned num_pages)
pgd = efi_pgd;
efi_scratch.efi_pgt = (pgd_t *)__pa(efi_pgd);

All of the code paths above are taken when *not* EFI_OLD_MMAP.

Yes, I came exactly to the same conclusion, but I didn't want to call Linus
a moron before I triple checked that trampoline_pgd is still there, but
only every used to get out of the realmode swamp at bpot.

So coming back to the same commit. From the changelog:

This is caused by mapping EFI regions with RWX permissions.
There isn't much we can do to restrict the permissions for these
regions due to the way the firmware toolchains mix code and
data, but we can at least isolate these mappings so that they do
not appear in the regular kernel page tables.

In commit d2f7cbe7b26a ("x86/efi: Runtime services virtual
mapping") we started using 'trampoline_pgd' to map the EFI
regions because there was an existing identity mapping there
which we use during the SetVirtualAddressMap() call and for
broken firmware that accesses those addresses.

So this very commit gets rid of the (ab)use of trampoline_pgd and allocates
efi_pgd, which we made use the proper size.

trampoline_pgd is since then only used to get into long mode in
realmode/rm/trampoline_64.S and for reboot in machine_real_restart().

The runtime services stuff does not use it in kernel versions >= 4.6

Yes, and addressing Linus' concern about EFI_OLD_MEMMAP, those paths are
independent of it. When EFI_OLD_MMAP is enabled, the efi pgd is not
used, and the bug will not bite.

We have a fix queued in tip/x86/pti which addresses a missing NX clear, but
that's a different story.

But there is one very well hidden user for it after boot:

It's used for booting secondary CPUs from real mode

So the transition to long mode for secondaries uses the trampoline pgd for
long mode transition and then jumping to secondary_startup_64 where CR3 is
set to the real kernel page tables.

Is this the issue you are talking about, or is the fix triggering

Ok, so the summary is that this patch is only needed for the 4.4 and 4.9
kernels, and _NOT_ for Linus's tree and 4.14, right?

Correct.
