From 2c4ea6e28dbf15ab93632c5c189f3948366b8885 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Borkmann Date: Sat, 11 Mar 2017 01:31:19 +0100 Subject: x86/tlb: Fix tlb flushing when lguest clears PGE Fengguang reported random corruptions from various locations on x86-32 after commits d2852a224050 ("arch: add ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY config") and 9d876e79df6a ("bpf: fix unlocking of jited image when module ronx not set") that uses the former. While x86-32 doesn't have a JIT like x86_64, the bpf_prog_lock_ro() and bpf_prog_unlock_ro() got enabled due to ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY, whereas Fengguang's test kernel doesn't have module support built in and therefore never had the DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX setting enabled. After investigating the crashes further, it turned out that using set_memory_ro() and set_memory_rw() didn't have the desired effect, for example, setting the pages as read-only on x86-32 would still let probe_kernel_write() succeed without error. This behavior would manifest itself in situations where the vmalloc'ed buffer was accessed prior to set_memory_*() such as in case of bpf_prog_alloc(). In cases where it wasn't, the page attribute changes seemed to have taken effect, leading to the conclusion that a TLB invalidate didn't happen. Moreover, it turned out that this issue reproduced with qemu in "-cpu kvm64" mode, but not for "-cpu host". When the issue occurs, change_page_attr_set_clr() did trigger a TLB flush as expected via __flush_tlb_all() through cpa_flush_range(), though. There are 3 variants for issuing a TLB flush: invpcid_flush_all() (depends on CPU feature bits X86_FEATURE_INVPCID, X86_FEATURE_PGE), cr4 based flush (depends on X86_FEATURE_PGE), and cr3 based flush. For "-cpu host" case in my setup, the flush used invpcid_flush_all() variant, whereas for "-cpu kvm64", the flush was cr4 based. Switching the kvm64 case to cr3 manually worked fine, and further investigating the cr4 one turned out that X86_CR4_PGE bit was not set in cr4 register, meaning the __native_flush_tlb_global_irq_disabled() wrote cr4 twice with the same value instead of clearing X86_CR4_PGE in the first write to trigger the flush. It turned out that X86_CR4_PGE was cleared from cr4 during init from lguest_arch_host_init() via adjust_pge(). The X86_FEATURE_PGE bit is also cleared from there due to concerns of using PGE in guest kernel that can lead to hard to trace bugs (see bff672e630a0 ("lguest: documentation V: Host") in init()). The CPU feature bits are cleared in dynamic boot_cpu_data, but they never propagated to __flush_tlb_all() as it uses static_cpu_has() instead of boot_cpu_has() for testing which variant of TLB flushing to use, meaning they still used the old setting of the host kernel. Clearing via setup_clear_cpu_cap(X86_FEATURE_PGE) so this would propagate to static_cpu_has() checks is too late at this point as sections have been patched already, so for now, it seems reasonable to switch back to boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_PGE) as it was prior to commit c109bf95992b ("x86/cpufeature: Remove cpu_has_pge"). This lets the TLB flush trigger via cr3 as originally intended, properly makes the new page attributes visible and thus fixes the crashes seen by Fengguang.
