modules: Use vmalloc special flag

2019-04-30T10:37:58Z

Use new flag for handling freeing of special permissioned memory in vmalloc and remove places where memory was set RW before freeing which is no longer needed. Since freeing of VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS memory is not supported in an interrupt by vmalloc, the freeing of init sections is moved to a work queue. Instead of call_rcu it now uses synchronize_rcu() in the work queue. Lastly, there is now a WARN_ON in module_memfree since it should not be called in an interrupt with special memory as is required for VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS.

x86/modules: Avoid breaking W^X while loading modules

2019-04-30T10:37:55Z

When modules and BPF filters are loaded, there is a time window in which some memory is both writable and executable. An attacker that has already found another vulnerability (e.g., a dangling pointer) might be able to exploit this behavior to overwrite kernel code. Prevent having writable executable PTEs in this stage. In addition, avoiding having W+X mappings can also slightly simplify the patching of modules code on initialization (e.g., by alternatives and static-key), as would be done in the next patch. This was actually the main motivation for this patch. To avoid having W+X mappings, set them initially as RW (NX) and after they are set as RO set them as X as well. Setting them as executable is done as a separate step to avoid one core in which the old PTE is cached (hence writable), and another which sees the updated PTE (executable), which would break the W^X protection.

kallsyms: store type information in its own array

2019-03-28T14:00:37Z

When a module is loaded, its symbols' Elf_Sym information is stored in a symtab. Further, type information is also captured. Since Elf_Sym has no type field, historically the st_info field has been hijacked for storing type: st_info was overwritten. commit 5439c985c5a83a8419f762115afdf560ab72a452 ("module: Overwrite st_size instead of st_info") changes that practice, as its one-liner indicates. Unfortunately, this change overwrites symbol size, information that a tool like DTrace expects to find. Allocate a typetab array to store type information so that no Elf_Sym field needs to be overwritten.

x86/ima: require signed kernel modules

2019-03-27T14:36:44Z

Have the IMA architecture specific policy require signed kernel modules on systems with secure boot mode enabled; and coordinate the different signature verification methods, so only one signature is required. Requiring appended kernel module signatures may be configured, enabled on the boot command line, or with this patch enabled in secure boot mode. This patch defines set_module_sig_enforced(). To coordinate between appended kernel module signatures and IMA signatures, only define an IMA MODULE_CHECK policy rule if CONFIG_MODULE_SIG is not enabled. A custom IMA policy may still define and require an IMA signature. Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar Reviewed-by: Luis Chamberlain Acked-by: Jessica Yu

dynamic_debug: add static inline stub for ddebug_add_module

2019-03-08T02:32:00Z

For symmetry with ddebug_remove_module, and to avoid a bit of ifdeffery in module.c, move the declaration of ddebug_add_module inside #if defined(CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG) and add a corresponding no-op stub in the #else branch.

dynamic_debug: move pr_err from module.c to ddebug_add_module

2019-03-08T02:32:00Z

This serves two purposes: First, we get a diagnostic if (though extremely unlikely), any of the calls of ddebug_add_module for built-in code fails, effectively disabling dynamic_debug. Second, I want to make struct _ddebug opaque, and avoid accessing any of its members outside dynamic_debug.[ch].

jump_label: move 'asm goto' support test to Kconfig

2019-01-06T00:46:51Z

Currently, CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL just means "I _want_ to use jump label". The jump label is controlled by HAVE_JUMP_LABEL, which is defined like this: #if defined(CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO) && defined(CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL) # define HAVE_JUMP_LABEL #endif We can improve this by testing 'asm goto' support in Kconfig, then make JUMP_LABEL depend on CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO. Ugly #ifdef HAVE_JUMP_LABEL will go away, and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL will match to the real kernel capability. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Acked-by: Michael Ellerman (powerpc) Tested-by: Sedat Dilek
