Using sys_io_pgetevents() as the entry point for compat mode tasks
works almost correctly, but misses the sign extension for the min_nr
and nr arguments.
This was addressed on parisc by switching to
compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64() in commit 6431e92fc8 ("parisc:
io_pgetevents_time64() needs compat syscall in 32-bit compat mode"),
as well as by using more sophisticated system call wrappers on x86 and
s390. However, arm64, mips, powerpc, sparc and riscv still have the
same bug.
Change all of them over to use compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64()
like parisc already does. This was clearly the intention when the
function was originally added, but it got hooked up incorrectly in
the tables.

Now that make_folio_secure() may only set PG_arch_1 for small folios,
let's convert relevant remaining UV code to only work on (small) folios
and simply reject large folios early. This way, we'll never end up
touching PG_arch_1 on tail pages of a large folio in UV code.
The folio_get()/folio_put() for functions that are documented to already
hold a folio reference look weird; likely they are required to make
concurrent gmap_make_secure() back off because the caller might only hold
an implicit reference due to the page mapping. So leave that alone for now.

While s390x makes sure to never have PMD-mapped THP in processes that use
KVM -- by remapping them using PTEs in
thp_split_walk_pmd_entry()->split_huge_pmd() -- there is still the
possibility of having PTE-mapped THPs (large folios) mapped into guest
memory.
This would happen if user space allocates memory before calling
KVM_CREATE_VM (which would call s390_enable_sie()). With upstream QEMU,
this currently doesn't happen, because guest memory is setup and
conditionally preallocated after KVM_CREATE_VM.
Could it happen with shmem/file-backed memory when another process
allocated memory in the pagecache? Likely, although currently not a
common setup.
Trying to split any PTE-mapped large folios sounds like the right and
future-proof thing to do here. So let's call split_folio() and handle the
return values accordingly.

By contrast, if such information in os_info is absent the

Currently the proper PT_LOAD program header is created for
kernels that contain the virtual memory information, but
for kernels without one an invalid header of zero size is
created. That in turn leads to stand-alone dump failures.

Patch series "Introduce mseal", v10.
This patchset proposes a new mseal() syscall for the Linux kernel.
In a nutshell, mseal() protects the VMAs of a given virtual memory range
against modifications, such as changes to their permission bits.
Modern CPUs support memory permissions, such as the read/write (RW) and
no-execute (NX) bits. Linux has supported NX since the release of kernel
version 2.6.8 in August 2004 [1]. The memory permission feature improves
the security stance on memory corruption bugs, as an attacker cannot
simply write to arbitrary memory and point the code to it. The memory
must be marked with the X bit, or else an exception will occur.
Internally, the kernel maintains the memory permissions in a data
structure called VMA (vm_area_struct). mseal() additionally protects the
VMA itself against modifications of the selected seal type.
Memory sealing is useful to mitigate memory corruption issues where a
corrupted pointer is passed to a memory management system. For example,
such an attacker primitive can break control-flow integrity guarantees
since read-only memory that is supposed to be trusted can become writable
or .text pages can get remapped. Memory sealing can automatically be
applied by the runtime loader to seal .text and .rodata pages and
applications can additionally seal security critical data at runtime. A
similar feature already exists in the XNU kernel with the
VM_FLAGS_PERMANENT [3] flag and on OpenBSD with the mimmutable syscall
[4]. Also, Chrome wants to adopt this feature for their CFI work [2] and
this patchset has been designed to be compatible with the Chrome use case.
Two system calls are involved in sealing the map: mmap() and mseal().
The new mseal() is an syscall on 64 bit CPU, and with following signature:
int mseal(void addr, size_t len, unsigned long flags)
addr/len: memory range.
flags: reserved.
mseal() blocks following operations for the given memory range.
1> Unmapping, moving to another location, and shrinking the size,
via munmap() and mremap(), can leave an empty space, therefore can
be replaced with a VMA with a new set of attributes.
2> Moving or expanding a different VMA into the current location,
via mremap().
3> Modifying a VMA via mmap(MAP_FIXED).
4> Size expansion, via mremap(), does not appear to pose any specific
risks to sealed VMAs. It is included anyway because the use case is
unclear. In any case, users can rely on merging to expand a sealed VMA.
5> mprotect() and pkey_mprotect().
6> Some destructive madvice() behaviors (e.g. MADV_DONTNEED) for anonymous
memory, when users don't have write permission to the memory. Those
behaviors can alter region contents by discarding pages, effectively a
memset(0) for anonymous memory.
The idea that inspired this patch comes from Stephen Röttger’s work in
V8 CFI [5]. Chrome browser in ChromeOS will be the first user of this
API.
Indeed, the Chrome browser has very specific requirements for sealing,
which are distinct from those of most applications. For example, in the
case of libc, sealing is only applied to read-only (RO) or read-execute
(RX) memory segments (such as .text and .RELRO) to prevent them from
becoming writable, the lifetime of those mappings are tied to the lifetime
of the process.
Chrome wants to seal two large address space reservations that are managed
by different allocators. The memory is mapped RW- and RWX respectively
but write access to it is restricted using pkeys (or in the future ARM
permission overlay extensions). The lifetime of those mappings are not
tied to the lifetime of the process, therefore, while the memory is
sealed, the allocators still need to free or discard the unused memory.
For example, with madvise(DONTNEED).
However, always allowing madvise(DONTNEED) on this range poses a security
risk. For example if a jump instruction crosses a page boundary and the
second page gets discarded, it will overwrite the target bytes with zeros
and change the control flow. Checking write-permission before the discard
operation allows us to control when the operation is valid. In this case,
the madvise will only succeed if the executing thread has PKEY write
permissions and PKRU changes are protected in software by control-flow
integrity.
Although the initial version of this patch series is targeting the Chrome
browser as its first user, it became evident during upstream discussions
that we would also want to ensure that the patch set eventually is a
complete solution for memory sealing and compatible with other use cases.
The specific scenario currently in mind is glibc's use case of loading and
sealing ELF executables. To this end, Stephen is working on a change to
glibc to add sealing support to the dynamic linker, which will seal all
non-writable segments at startup. Once this work is completed, all
applications will be able to automatically benefit from these new
protections.
In closing, I would like to formally acknowledge the valuable
contributions received during the RFC process, which were instrumental in
shaping this patch:
Jann Horn: raising awareness and providing valuable insights on the
destructive madvise operations.
Liam R. Howlett: perf optimization.
Linus Torvalds: assisting in defining system call signature and scope.
Theo de Raadt: sharing the experiences and insight gained from
implementing mimmutable() in OpenBSD.
MM perf benchmarks
==================
This patch adds a loop in the mprotect/munmap/madvise(DONTNEED) to
check the VMAs’ sealing flag, so that no partial update can be made,
when any segment within the given memory range is sealed.
To measure the performance impact of this loop, two tests are developed.
[8]
The first is measuring the time taken for a particular system call,
by using clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC). The second is using
PERF_COUNT_HW_REF_CPU_CYCLES (exclude user space). Both tests have
similar results.
The tests have roughly below sequence:
for (i = 0; i < 1000, i++)
create 1000 mappings (1 page per VMA)
start the sampling
for (j = 0; j < 1000, j++)
mprotect one mapping
stop and save the sample
delete 1000 mappings
calculates all samples.
Below tests are performed on Intel(R) Pentium(R) Gold 7505 @ 2.00GHz,
4G memory, Chromebook.

From 5.10 to 6.8
munmap: added 250-550 ns in time, or 500-1100 in cpu cycle, per vma.
mprotect: added 200-750 ns in time, or 500-1200 in cpu cycle, per vma.
madvise: added 33-50 ns in time, or 70-110 in cpu cycle, per vma.
In comparison to mseal, which adds 20-40 ns or 50-100 CPU cycles, the
increase from 5.10 to 6.8 is significantly larger, approximately ten times
greater for munmap and mprotect.
When I discuss the mm performance with Brian Makin, an engineer who worked
on performance, it was brought to my attention that such performance
benchmarks, which measuring millions of mm syscall in a tight loop, may
not accurately reflect real-world scenarios, such as that of a database
service. Also this is tested using a single HW and ChromeOS, the data
from another HW or distribution might be different. It might be best to
take this data with a grain of salt.
This patch (of 5):
Wire up mseal syscall for all architectures.

- Switch read and write software bits for PUDs
- Add missing hardware bits for PUDs and PMDs
- Generate unwind information for C modules to fix GDB unwind
error for vDSO functions
- Create .build-id links for unstripped vDSO files to enable
vDSO debugging with symbols
- Use standard stack frame layout for vDSO generated stack frames
to manually walk stack frames without DWARF information
- Rework perf_callchain_user() and arch_stack_walk_user() functions
to reduce code duplication
- Skip first stack frame when walking user stack
- Add basic checks to identify invalid instruction pointers when
walking stack frames
- Introduce and use struct stack_frame_vdso_wrapper within vDSO user
wrapper code to automatically generate an asm-offset define. Also
use STACK_FRAME_USER_OVERHEAD instead of STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD to
document that the code works with user space stack
- Clear the backchain of the extra stack frame added by the vDSO user
wrapper code. This allows the user stack walker to detect and skip
the non-standard stack frame. Without this an incorrect instruction
pointer would be added to stack traces.
- Rewrite psw_idle() function in C to ease maintenance and further
enhancements
- Remove get_vtimer() function and use get_cpu_timer() instead
- Mark psw variable in __load_psw_mask() as __unitialized to avoid
superfluous clearing of PSW
- Remove obsolete and superfluous comment about removed TIF_FPU flag
- Replace memzero_explicit() and kfree() with kfree_sensitive() to
fix warnings reported by Coccinelle
- Wipe sensitive data and all copies of protected- or secure-keys
from stack when an IOCTL fails
- Both do_airq_interrupt() and do_io_interrupt() functions set
CIF_NOHZ_DELAY flag. Move it in do_io_irq() to simplify the code
- Provide iucv_alloc_device() and iucv_release_device() helpers,
which can be used to deduplicate more or less identical IUCV
device allocation and release code in four different drivers
- Make use of iucv_alloc_device() and iucv_release_device()
helpers to get rid of quite some code and also remove a
cast to an incompatible function (clang W=1)
- There is no user of iucv_root outside of the core IUCV code left.
Therefore remove the EXPORT_SYMBOL
- __apply_alternatives() contains a runtime check which verifies
that the size of the to be patched code area is even. Convert
this to a compile time check
- Increase size of buffers for sending z/VM CP DIAGNOSE X'008'
commands from 128 to 240
- Do not accept z/VM CP DIAGNOSE X'008' commands longer than
maximally allowed
- Use correct defines IPL_BP_NVME_LEN and IPL_BP0_NVME_LEN instead
of IPL_BP_FCP_LEN and IPL_BP0_FCP_LEN ones to initialize NVMe
reIPL block on 'scp_data' sysfs attribute update
- Initialize the correct fields of the NVMe dump block, which
were confused with FCP fields
- Refactor macros for 'scp_data' (re-)IPL sysfs attribute to
reduce code duplication
- Introduce 'scp_data' sysfs attribute for dump IPL to allow tools
such as dumpconf passing additional kernel command line parameters
to a stand-alone dumper
- Rework the CPACF query functions to use the correct RRE or RRF
instruction formats and set instruction register fields correctly
- Instead of calling BUG() at runtime force a link error during
compile when a unsupported opcode is used with __cpacf_query()

devices have been bound to device drivers and again when unbind/bind
actions take place and all AP devices are bound again
- Facility list alt_stfle_fac_list is nowhere used in the decompressor,
therefore remove it there
- Remove custom kprobes insn slot allocator in favour of the standard
module_alloc() one, since kernel image and module areas are located

Since commit c98d2ecae0 ("s390/mm: Uncouple physical vs virtual address
spaces") the kernel image and module area are within the same 4GB area.
This eliminates the need of a custom insn slot allocator for kprobes within
the kernel image, since standard module_alloc() allocated pages are
sufficient for PC relative instructions with a signed 32 bit offset.

If an error happens in ftrace, ftrace_kill() will prevent disarming
kprobes. Eventually, the ftrace_ops associated with the kprobes will be
freed, yet the kprobes will still be active, and when triggered, they
will use the freed memory, likely resulting in a page fault and panic.
This behavior can be reproduced quite easily, by creating a kprobe and
then triggering a ftrace_kill(). For simplicity, we can simulate an
ftrace error with a kernel module like [1]:
[1]: https://github.com/brenns10/kernel_stuff/tree/master/ftrace_killer
sudo perf probe --add commit_creds
sudo perf trace -e probe:commit_creds
# In another terminal
make
sudo insmod ftrace_killer.ko # calls ftrace_kill(), simulating bug
# Back to perf terminal
# ctrl-c
sudo perf probe --del commit_creds
After a short period, a page fault and panic would occur as the kprobe
continues to execute and uses the freed ftrace_ops. While ftrace_kill()
is supposed to be used only in extreme circumstances, it is invoked in
FTRACE_WARN_ON() and so there are many places where an unexpected bug
could be triggered, yet the system may continue operating, possibly
without the administrator noticing. If ftrace_kill() does not panic the
system, then we should do everything we can to continue operating,
rather than leave a ticking time bomb.

The old implementation of vmcmd sysfs string attributes truncated passed
z/VM CP diagnose X'008' commands which were longer than the max allowed
number of characters but the reported number of written characters was
still equal to the entire length of a given string. This can result in
silent failures of some s390-tools (e.g. dumpconf) which can be very hard
to detect. Therefore, this commit makes a write attempt to a vmcmd sysfs
attribute
* fail with E2BIG error if a given string is longer than the maximum
allowed one
* never destroy the old data in the vmcmd sysfs attribute if the new data
doesn't fit into it entirely
* return the actual number of written characters if it succeeds
