Binutils 2.31 will enable -z separate-code by default for x86 to avoid mixing code pages with data to improve cache performance as well as security. To reduce x86-64 executable and shared object sizes, the maximum page size is reduced from 2MB to 4KB. But x86-64 kernel must be aligned to 2MB. Pass -z max-page-size=0x200000 to linker to force 2MB page size regardless of the default page size used by linker. Tested with Linux kernel 4.15.6 on x86-64. Signed-off-by:

glibc keeps getting cleverer, and my version now turns raise() into more than one syscall. Since the test relies on ptrace seeing an exact set of syscalls, this breaks the test. Replace raise(SIGSTOP) with syscall(SYS_tgkill, ...) to force glibc to get out of our way. Signed-off-by:

Emanuel reported an issue with a hang during microcode update because my dumb idea to use one atomic synchronization variable for both rendezvous - before and after update - was simply bollocks: microcode: microcode_reload_late: late_cpus: 4 microcode: __reload_late: cpu 2 entered microcode: __reload_late: cpu 1 entered microcode: __reload_late: cpu 3 entered microcode: __reload_late: cpu 0 entered microcode: __reload_late: cpu 1 left microcode: Timeout while waiting for CPUs rendezvous, remaining: 1 CPU1 above would finish, leave and the others will still spin waiting for it to join. So do two synchronization atomics instead, which makes the code a lot more straightforward. Also, since the update is serialized and it also takes quite some time per microcode engine, increase the exit timeout by the number of CPUs on the system. That's ok because the moment all CPUs are done, that timeout will be cut short. Furthermore, panic when some of the CPUs timeout when returning from a microcode update: we can't allow a system with not all cores updated. Also, as an optimization, do not do the exit sync if microcode wasn't updated. Reported-by:

Disable the kprobe probing of the entry trampoline: .entry_trampoline is a code area that is used to ensure page table isolation between userspace and kernelspace. At the beginning of the execution of the trampoline, we load the kernel's CR3 register. This has the effect of enabling the translation of the kernel virtual addresses to physical addresses. Before this happens most kernel addresses can not be translated because the running process' CR3 is still used. If a kprobe is placed on the trampoline code before that change of the CR3 register happens the kernel crashes because int3 handling pages are not accessible. To fix this, add the .entry_trampoline section to the kprobe blacklist to prohibit the probing of code before all the kernel pages are accessible. Signed-off-by:

Original idea by Ashok, completely rewritten by Borislav. Before you read any further: the early loading method is still the preferred one and you should always do that. The following patch is improving the late loading mechanism for long running jobs and cloud use cases. Gather all cores and serialize the microcode update on them by doing it one-by-one to make the late update process as reliable as possible and avoid potential issues caused by the microcode update.

As: 1) It's known that hypervisors lie about the environment anyhow (host mismatch) 2) Even if the hypervisor (Xen, KVM, VMWare, etc) provided a valid "correct" value, it all gets to be very murky when migration happens (do you provide the "new" microcode of the machine?). And in reality the cloud vendors are the ones that should make sure that the microcode that is running is correct and we should just sing lalalala and trust them.

Since Linux v3.2, vsyscalls have been deprecated and slow. From v3.2 on, Linux had three vsyscall modes: "native", "emulate", and "none". "emulate" is the default. All known user programs work correctly in emulate mode, but vsyscalls turn into page faults and are emulated. This is very slow. In "native" mode, the vsyscall page is easily usable as an exploit gadget, but vsyscalls are a bit faster -- they turn into normal syscalls. (This is in contrast to vDSO functions, which can be much faster than syscalls.) In "none" mode, there are no vsyscalls. For all practical purposes, "native" was really just a chicken bit in case something went wrong with the emulation. It's been over six years, and nothing has gone wrong. Delete it. Signed-off-by:

The separation of the cpu_entry_area from the fixmap missed the fact that on 32bit non-PAE kernels the cpu_entry_area mapping might not be covered in initial_page_table by the previous synchronizations. This results in suspend/resume failures because 32bit utilizes initial page table for resume. The absence of the cpu_entry_area mapping results in a triple fault, aka. insta reboot. With PAE enabled this works by chance because the PGD entry which covers the fixmap and other parts incindentally provides the cpu_entry_area mapping as well. Synchronize the initial page table after setting up the cpu entry area. Instead of adding yet another copy of the same code, move it to a function and invoke it from the various places. It needs to be investigated if the existing calls in setup_arch() and setup_per_cpu_areas() can be replaced by the later invocation from setup_cpu_entry_areas(), but that's beyond the scope of this fix.

Currently when the jump label code encounters an address which isn't recognized by kernel_text_address(), it just silently fails. This can be dangerous because jump labels are used in a variety of places, and are generally expected to work. Convert the silent failure to a warning. This won't warn about attempted writes to tracepoints in __init code after initmem has been freed, as those are already guarded by the entry->code check. Signed-off-by:
-
Josh Poimboeuf authored
After initmem has been freed, any jump labels in __init code are prevented from being written to by the kernel_text_address() check in __jump_label_update(). However, this check is quite broad. If kernel_text_address() were to return false for any other reason, the jump label write would fail silently with no warning. For jump labels in module init code, entry->code is set to zero to indicate that the entry is disabled. Do the same thing for core kernel init code. This makes the behavior more consistent, and will also make it more straightforward to detect non-init jump label write failures in the next patch. Signed-off-by:
