15 years agohighmem: atomic highmem kmap page pinning
Nicolas Pitre [Thu, 5 Mar 2009 03:49:41 +0000 (22:49 -0500)]
highmem: atomic highmem kmap page pinning

Most ARM machines have a non IO coherent cache, meaning that the
dma_map_*() set of functions must clean and/or invalidate the affected
memory manually before DMA occurs.  And because the majority of those
machines have a VIVT cache, the cache maintenance operations must be
performed using virtual
addresses.

When a highmem page is kunmap'd, its mapping (and cache) remains in place
in case it is kmap'd again. However if dma_map_page() is then called with
such a page, some cache maintenance on the remaining mapping must be
performed. In that case, page_address(page) is non null and we can use
that to synchronize the cache.

It is unlikely but still possible for kmap() to race and recycle the
virtual address obtained above, and use it for another page before some
on-going cache invalidation loop in dma_map_page() is done. In that case,
the new mapping could end up with dirty cache lines for another page,
and the unsuspecting cache invalidation loop in dma_map_page() might
simply discard those dirty cache lines resulting in data loss.

For example, let's consider this sequence of events:

- dma_map_page(..., DMA_FROM_DEVICE) is called on a highmem page.

--> - vaddr = page_address(page) is non null. In this case
it is likely that the page has valid cache lines
associated with vaddr. Remember that the cache is VIVT.

--> for (i = vaddr; i < vaddr + PAGE_SIZE; i += 32)
invalidate_cache_line(i);

*** preemption occurs in the middle of the loop above ***

- kmap_high() is called for a different page.

--> - last_pkmap_nr wraps to zero and flush_all_zero_pkmaps()
  is called.  The pkmap_count value for the page passed
  to dma_map_page() above happens to be 1, so the page
  is unmapped.  But prior to that, flush_cache_kmaps()
  cleared the cache for it.  So far so good.

- A fresh pkmap entry is assigned for this kmap request.
  The Murphy law says this pkmap entry will eventually
  happen to use the same vaddr as the one which used to
  belong to the other page being processed by
  dma_map_page() in the preempted thread above.

- The kmap_high() caller start dirtying the cache using the
  just assigned virtual mapping for its page.

*** the first thread is rescheduled ***

- The for(...) loop is resumed, but now cached
  data belonging to a different physical page is
  being discarded !

And this is not only a preemption issue as ARM can be SMP as well,
making the above scenario just as likely. Hence the need for some kind
of pkmap page pinning which can be used in any context, primarily for
the benefit of dma_map_page() on ARM.

This provides the necessary interface to cope with the above issue if
ARCH_NEEDS_KMAP_HIGH_GET is defined, otherwise the resulting code is
unchanged.

Nicolas Pitre [Mon, 15 Sep 2008 20:44:55 +0000 (16:44 -0400)]
[ARM] kmap support

The kmap virtual area borrows a 2MB range at the top of the 16MB area
below PAGE_OFFSET currently reserved for kernel modules and/or the
XIP kernel.  This 2MB corresponds to the range covered by 2 consecutive
second-level page tables, or a single pmd entry as seen by the Linux
page table abstraction.  Because XIP kernels are unlikely to be seen
on systems needing highmem support, there shouldn't be any shortage of
VM space for modules (14 MB for modules is still way more than twice the
typical usage).

Because the virtual mapping of highmem pages can go away at any moment
after kunmap() is called on them, we need to bypass the delayed cache
flushing provided by flush_dcache_page() in that case.

The atomic kmap versions are based on fixmaps, and
__cpuc_flush_dcache_page() is used directly in that case.

[ARM] fixmap support

This is the minimum fixmap interface expected to be implemented by
architectures supporting highmem.

We have a second level page table already allocated and covering
0xfff00000-0xffffffff because the exception vector page is located
at 0xffff0000, and various cache tricks already use some entries above
0xffff0000.  Therefore the PTEs covering 0xfff00000-0xfffeffff are free
to be used.

However the XScale cache flushing code already uses virtual addresses
between 0xfffe0000 and 0xfffeffff.

So this reserves the 0xfff00000-0xfffdffff range for fixmap stuff.

The Documentation/arm/memory.txt information is updated accordingly,
including the information about the actual top of DMA memory mapping
region which didn't match the code.

[ARM] Fix virtual to physical translation macro corner cases

The current use of these macros works well when the conversion is
entirely linear.  In this case, we can be assured that the following
holds true:

__va(p + s) - s = __va(p)

However, this is not always the case, especially when there is a
non-linear conversion (eg, when there is a 3.5GB hole in memory.)
In this case, if 's' is the size of the region (eg, PAGE_SIZE) and
'p' is the final page, the above is most definitely not true.

So, we must ensure that __va() and __pa() are only used with valid
kernel direct mapped RAM addresses.  This patch tweaks the code
to achieve this.

x86-64: seccomp: fix 32/64 syscall hole

On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with
ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system
call.  A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80.

In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use
the wrong system call number table.  The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT
instead of TIF_IA32.  Here is an example exploit:

/* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64

   There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32.

   The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could
   be any chmod call).  The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do
   stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly.

   A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a
   fixed kernel will make it exit with SIGKILL before it does anything.

handling in xfs_compat_ioctl but never added any compat handler back, so
now any freeze/thaw request from a 32-bit binary ond 64-bit userspace

As these ioctls are 32/64-bit compatible two simple COMPATIBLE_IOCTL
entries in fs/compat_ioctl.c will do the job.
