tracing/boot: Show correct histogram error command
Since trigger_process_regex() modifies given trigger actions while parsing, the error message couldn't show what command was passed to the trigger_process_regex() when it returns an error. To fix that, show the backed up trigger action command instead of parsed buffer.

tracing/boot: Support multiple histograms for each event
Add multiple histograms support for each event. This allows
user to set multiple histograms to an event.
ftrace.[instance.INSTANCE.]event.GROUP.EVENT.hist[.N] {
...
}
The 'N' is a digit started string and it can be omitted
for the default histogram.
For example, multiple hist triggers example in the
Documentation/trace/histogram.rst can be written as below;
ftrace.event.net.netif_receive_skb.hist {
1 {
keys = skbaddr.hex
values = len
filter = len < 0
}
2 {
keys = skbaddr.hex
values = len
filter = len > 4096
}
3 {
keys = skbaddr.hex
values = len
filter = len == 256
}
4 {
keys = skbaddr.hex
values = len
}
5 {
keys = len
values = common_preempt_count
}
}

tracing/boot: Support multiple handlers for per-event histogram
Support multiple handlers for per-event histogram in boot-time tracing.
Since the histogram can register multiple same handler-actions with
different parameters, this expands the syntax to support such cases.
With this update, the 'onmax', 'onchange' and 'onmatch' handler subkeys
under per-event histogram option will take a number subkeys optionally
as below. (see [.N])
ftrace.[instance.INSTANCE.]event.GROUP.EVENT.hist {
onmax|onchange[.N] { var = <VAR>; <ACTION> [= <PARAM>] }
onmatch[.N] { event = <EVENT>; <ACTION> [= <PARAM>] }
}
The 'N' must be a digit (or digit started word).
Thus user can add several handler-actions to the histogram,
for example,
ftrace.event.SOMEGROUP.SOMEEVENT.hist {
keys = SOME_ID; lat = common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0
onmatch.1 {
event = GROUP1.STARTEVENT1
trace = latency_event, SOME_ID, $lat
}
onmatch.2 {
event = GROUP2.STARTEVENT2
trace = latency_event, SOME_ID, $lat
}
}
Then, it can trace the elapsed time from GROUP1.STARTEVENT1 to
SOMEGROUP.SOMEEVENT, and from GROUP2.STARTEVENT2 to
SOMEGROUP.SOMEEVENT with SOME_ID key.

tracing/boot: Add per-event histogram action options
Add a hist-trigger action syntax support to boot-time tracing.
Currently, boot-time tracing supports per-event actions as option
strings. However, for the histogram action, it has a special syntax
and usually needs a long action definition.
To make it readable and fit to the bootconfig syntax, this introduces
a new options for histogram.
Here are the histogram action options for boot-time tracing.
ftrace.[instance.INSTANCE.]event.GROUP.EVENT.hist {
keys = <KEY>[,...]
values = <VAL>[,...]
sort = <SORT-KEY>[,...]
size = <ENTRIES>
name = <HISTNAME>
var { <VAR> = <EXPR> ... }
pause|continue|clear
onmax|onchange { var = <VAR>; <ACTION> [= <PARAM>] }
onmatch { event = <EVENT>; <ACTION> [= <PARAM>] }
filter = <FILTER>
}
Where <ACTION> is one of below;
trace = <EVENT>, <ARG1>[, ...]
save = <ARG1>[, ...]
snapshot

tracing: Allow execnames to be passed as args for synthetic events
Allow common_pid.execname to be saved in a variable in one histogram to be
passed to another histogram that can pass it as a parameter to a synthetic
event.
># echo 'hist:keys=pid:__arg__1=common_timestamp.usecs:arg2=common_pid.execname' \
> events/sched/sched_waking/trigger
># echo 'wakeup_lat s32 pid; u64 delta; char wake_comm[]' > synthetic_events
># echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:pid=next_pid,delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$__arg__1,exec=$arg2'\
':onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(wakeup_lat,$pid,$delta,$exec)' \
> events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
The above is a wake up latency synthetic event setup that passes the execname
of the common_pid that woke the task to the scheduling of that task, which
triggers a synthetic event that passes the original execname as a
parameter to display it.

tracing: Have histogram types be constant when possible
Instead of kstrdup("const", GFP_KERNEL), have the hist_field type simply
assign the constant hist_field->type = "const"; And when the value passed
to it is a variable, use "kstrdup_const(var, GFP_KERNEL);" which will just
copy the value if the variable is already a constant. This saves on having
to allocate when not needed.
All frees of the hist_field->type will need to use kfree_const().

tracing: Add linear buckets to histogram logic
There's been several times I wished the histogram logic had a "grouping"
feature for the buckets. Currently, each bucket has a size of one. That
is, if you trace the amount of requested allocations, each allocation is
its own bucket, even if you are interested in what allocates 100 bytes or
less, 100 to 200, 200 to 300, etc.
Also, without grouping, it fills up the allocated histogram buckets
quickly. If you are tracking latency, and don't care if something is 200
microseconds off, or 201 microseconds off, but want to track them by say
10 microseconds each. This can not currently be done.
There is a log2 but that grouping get's too big too fast for a lot of
cases.
Introduce a "buckets=SIZE" command to each field where it will record in a
rounded number. For example:
># echo 'hist:keys=bytes_req.buckets=100:sort=bytes_req' > events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
># cat events/kmem/kmalloc/hist
# event histogram
#
# trigger info:
hist:keys=bytes_req.buckets=100:vals=hitcount:sort=bytes_req.buckets=100:size=2048

The problem was the "trace(read_max,count)" where the "count" should be
"$count" as "onmax()" only handles variables (although it really should be
able to figure out that "count" is a field of sys_enter_read). But there's
a path that does not find the variable and ends up passing a NULL for the
event, which ends up getting passed to "strcmp()".
Add a check for NULL to return and error on the command with:
# cat error_log
hist:syscalls:sys_enter_read: error: Couldn't create or find variable
Command: hist:keys=common_pid:count=count:onmax($count).trace(read_max,count)

tracepoint: Use rcu get state and cond sync for static call updates
State transitions from 1->0->1 and N->2->1 callbacks require RCU synchronization. Rather than performing the RCU synchronization every time the state change occurs, which is quite slow when many tracepoints are registered in batch, instead keep a snapshot of the RCU state on the most recent transitions which belong to a chain, and conditionally wait for a grace period on the last transition of the chain if one g.p. has not elapsed since the last snapshot. This applies to both RCU and SRCU. This brings the performance regression caused by commit |

It has loaded the tp->funcs of the old callback, so it will try to use the old
data. This can be fixed by adding a RCU sync anywhere in the 1->0->1
transition chain.
On a N->2->1 transition, we need an rcu-sync because you may have a
sequence of 3->2->1 (or 1->2->1) where the element 0 data is unchanged
between 2->1, but was changed from 3->2 (or from 1->2), which may be
observed by the static call. This can be fixed by adding an
unconditional RCU sync in transition 2->1.
Note, this fixes a correctness issue at the cost of adding a tremendous
performance regression to the disabling of tracepoints.
Before this commit:
# trace-cmd start -e all
# time trace-cmd start -p nop
real 0m0.778s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.061s
After this commit:
# trace-cmd start -e all
# time trace-cmd start -p nop
real 0m10.593s
user 0m0.017s
sys 0m0.259s
A follow up fix will introduce a more lightweight scheme based on RCU
get_state and cond_sync, that will return the performance back to what it
was. As both this change and the lightweight versions are complex on their
own, for bisecting any issues that this may cause, they are kept as two
separate changes.

tracepoint: static call: Compare data on transition from 2->1 callees
On transition from 2->1 callees, we should be comparing .data rather
than .func, because the same callback can be registered twice with
different data, and what we care about here is that the data of array
element 0 is unchanged to skip rcu sync.

tracing: Quiet smp_processor_id() use in preemptable warning in hwlat
The hardware latency detector (hwlat) has a mode that it runs one thread
across CPUs. The logic to move from the currently running CPU to the next
one in the list does a smp_processor_id() to find where it currently is.
Unfortunately, it's done with preemption enabled, and this triggers a
warning for using smp_processor_id() in a preempt enabled section.
As it is only using smp_processor_id() to get information on where it
currently is in order to simply move it to the next CPU, it doesn't really
care if it got moved in the mean time. It will simply balance out later if
such a case arises.
Switch smp_processor_id() to raw_smp_processor_id() to quiet that warning.

tracing / histogram: Give calculation hist_fields a size
When working on my user space applications, I found a bug in the synthetic
event code where the automated synthetic event field was not matching the
event field calculation it was attached to. Looking deeper into it, it was
because the calculation hist_field was not given a size.
The synthetic event fields are matched to their hist_fields either by
having the field have an identical string type, or if that does not match,
then the size and signed values are used to match the fields.
The problem arose when I tried to match a calculation where the fields
were "unsigned int". My tool created a synthetic event of type "u32". But
it failed to match. The string was:
diff=field1-field2:onmatch(event).trace(synth,$diff)
Adding debugging into the kernel, I found that the size of "diff" was 0.
And since it was given "unsigned int" as a type, the histogram fallback
code used size and signed. The signed matched, but the size of u32 (4) did
not match zero, and the event failed to be created.
This can be worse if the field you want to match is not one of the
acceptable fields for a synthetic event. As event fields can have any type
that is supported in Linux, this can cause an issue. For example, if a
type is an enum. Then there's no way to use that with any calculations.
Have the calculation field simply take on the size of what it is
calculating.

tracepoints: Update static_call before tp_funcs when adding a tracepoint
Because of the significant overhead that retpolines pose on indirect
calls, the tracepoint code was updated to use the new "static_calls" that
can modify the running code to directly call a function instead of using
an indirect caller, and this function can be changed at runtime.
In the tracepoint code that calls all the registered callbacks that are
attached to a tracepoint, the following is done:
it_func_ptr = rcu_dereference_raw((&__tracepoint_##name)->funcs);
if (it_func_ptr) {
__data = (it_func_ptr)->data;
static_call(tp_func_##name)(__data, args);
}
If there's just a single callback, the static_call is updated to just call
that callback directly. Once another handler is added, then the static
caller is updated to call the iterator, that simply loops over all the
funcs in the array and calls each of the callbacks like the old method
using indirect calling.
The issue was discovered with a race between updating the funcs array and
updating the static_call. The funcs array was updated first and then the
static_call was updated. This is not an issue as long as the first element
in the old array is the same as the first element in the new array. But
that assumption is incorrect, because callbacks also have a priority
field, and if there's a callback added that has a higher priority than the
callback on the old array, then it will become the first callback in the
new array. This means that it is possible to call the old callback with
the new callback data element, which can cause a kernel panic.
static_call = callback1()
funcs[] = {callback1,data1};
callback2 has higher priority than callback1
CPU 1 CPU 2
----- -----
new_funcs = {callback2,data2},
{callback1,data1}
rcu_assign_pointer(tp->funcs, new_funcs);
/*
* Now tp->funcs has the new array
* but the static_call still calls callback1
*/
it_func_ptr = tp->funcs [ new_funcs ]
data = it_func_ptr->data [ data2 ]
static_call(callback1, data);
/* Now callback1 is called with
* callback2's data */
[ KERNEL PANIC ]
update_static_call(iterator);
To prevent this from happening, always switch the static_call to the
iterator before assigning the tp->funcs to the new array. The iterator will
always properly match the callback with its data.
To trigger this bug:
In one terminal:
while :; do hackbench 50; done
In another terminal
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_waking/enable
while :; do
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event_pid;
sleep 0.5
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event_pid;
sleep 0.5
done
And it doesn't take long to crash. This is because the set_event_pid adds
a callback to the sched_waking tracepoint with a high priority, which will
be called before the sched_waking trace event callback is called.
Note, the removal to a single callback updates the array first, before
changing the static_call to single callback, which is the proper order as
the first element in the array is the same as what the static_call is
being changed to.

tracing: Clean up alloc_synth_event()
alloc_synth_event() currently has the following code to initialize the
event fields and dynamic_fields:
for (i = 0, j = 0; i < n_fields; i++) {
event->fields[i] = fields[i];
if (fields[i]->is_dynamic) {
event->dynamic_fields[j] = fields[i];
event->dynamic_fields[j]->field_pos = i;
event->dynamic_fields[j++] = fields[i];
event->n_dynamic_fields++;
}
}
1) It would make more sense to have all fields keep track of their
field_pos.
2) event->dynmaic_fields[j] is assigned twice for no reason.
3) We can move updating event->n_dynamic_fields outside the loop, and just
assign it to j.
This combination makes the code much cleaner.

tracing/histogram: Rename "cpu" to "common_cpu"
Currently the histogram logic allows the user to write "cpu" in as an
event field, and it will record the CPU that the event happened on.
The problem with this is that there's a lot of events that have "cpu"
as a real field, and using "cpu" as the CPU it ran on, makes it
impossible to run histograms on the "cpu" field of events.
For example, if I want to have a histogram on the count of the
workqueue_queue_work event on its cpu field, running:
># echo 'hist:keys=cpu' > events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/trigger
Gives a misleading and wrong result.
Change the command to "common_cpu" as no event should have "common_*"
fields as that's a reserved name for fields used by all events. And
this makes sense here as common_cpu would be a field used by all events.
Now we can even do:
># echo 'hist:keys=common_cpu,cpu if cpu < 100' > events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/trigger
># cat events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/hist
# event histogram
#
# trigger info: hist:keys=common_cpu,cpu:vals=hitcount:sort=hitcount:size=2048 if cpu < 100 [active]
#
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 2 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 4 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 7, cpu: 7 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 7 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 1 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 6 } hitcount: 2
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 5 } hitcount: 2
{ common_cpu: 1, cpu: 1 } hitcount: 4
{ common_cpu: 6, cpu: 6 } hitcount: 4
{ common_cpu: 5, cpu: 5 } hitcount: 14
{ common_cpu: 4, cpu: 4 } hitcount: 26
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 0 } hitcount: 39
{ common_cpu: 2, cpu: 2 } hitcount: 184
Now for backward compatibility, I added a trick. If "cpu" is used, and
the field is not found, it will fall back to "common_cpu" and work as
it did before. This way, it will still work for old programs that use
"cpu" to get the actual CPU, but if the event has a "cpu" as a field, it
will get that event's "cpu" field, which is probably what it wants
anyway.
I updated the tracefs/README to include documentation about both the
common_timestamp and the common_cpu. This way, if that text is present in
the README, then an application can know that common_cpu is supported over
just plain "cpu".

The reason is that the dynamic events array keeps track of the field
position of the fields array, via the field_pos variable in the
synth_field structure. Unfortunately, that field is a boolean for some
reason, which means any field_pos greater than 1 will be a bug (in this
case it was 2).

tracing: Fix bug in rb_per_cpu_empty() that might cause deadloop.
The "rb_per_cpu_empty()" misinterpret the condition (as not-empty) when "head_page" and "commit_page" of "struct ring_buffer_per_cpu" points to the same buffer page, whose "buffer_data_page" is empty and "read" field is non-zero. An error scenario could be constructed as followed (kernel perspective): 1. All pages in the buffer has been accessed by reader(s) so that all of them will have non-zero "read" field. 2. Read and clear all buffer pages so that "rb_num_of_entries()" will return 0 rendering there's no more data to read. It is also required that the "read_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to the same page, while "head_page" is the next page of them. 3. Invoke "ring_buffer_lock_reserve()" with large enough "length" so that it shot pass the end of current tail buffer page. Now the "head_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to the same page. 4. Discard current event with "ring_buffer_discard_commit()", so that "head_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to a page whose buffer data page is now empty. When the error scenario has been constructed, "tracing_read_pipe" will be trapped inside a deadloop: "trace_empty()" returns 0 since "rb_per_cpu_empty()" returns 0 when it hits the CPU containing such constructed ring buffer. Then "trace_find_next_entry_inc()" always return NULL since "rb_num_of_entries()" reports there's no more entry to read. Finally "trace_seq_to_user()" returns "-EBUSY" spanking "tracing_read_pipe" back to the start of the "waitagain" loop. I've also written a proof-of-concept script to construct the scenario and trigger the bug automatically, you can use it to trace and validate my reasoning above: https://github.com/aegistudio/RingBufferDetonator.git Tests has been carried out on linux kernel 5.14-rc2 ( |

I originally tried to use strncpy_from_user/kernel_nofault() but found that there's other places that its dereferenced and not worth the effort. Just do not allow "char *" to act like strings.

It's also important to notice that since we have adopted the use of the pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough, we also want to avoid having more /* fall through */ comments being introduced. Contrary to GCC, Clang doesn't recognize any comments as implicit fall-through markings when the -Wimplicit-fallthrough option is enabled. So, in order to avoid having more comments being introduced, we use the option -Wimplicit-fallthrough=5 for GCC, which similar to Clang, will cause a warning in case a code comment is intended to be used as a fall-through marking. The patch for Makefile also enforces this. We had almost 4,000 of these issues for Clang in the beginning, and there might be a couple more out there when building some architectures with certain configurations.

fs: add vfs_parse_fs_param_source() helper
Add a simple helper that filesystems can use in their parameter parser to parse the "source" parameter. A few places open-coded this function and that already caused a bug in the cgroup v1 parser that we fixed. Let's make it harder to get this wrong by introducing a helper which performs all necessary checks.

cgroup: verify that source is a string
The following sequence can be used to trigger a UAF:
int fscontext_fd = fsopen("cgroup");
int fd_null = open("/dev/null, O_RDONLY);
int fsconfig(fscontext_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "source", fd_null);
close_range(3, ~0U, 0);
The cgroup v1 specific fs parser expects a string for the "source"
parameter. However, it is perfectly legitimate to e.g. specify a file
descriptor for the "source" parameter. The fs parser doesn't know what
a filesystem allows there. So it's a bug to assume that "source" is
always of type fs_value_is_string when it can reasonably also be
fs_value_is_file.
This assumption in the cgroup code causes a UAF because struct
fs_parameter uses a union for the actual value. Access to that union is
guarded by the param->type member. Since the cgroup paramter parser
didn't check param->type but unconditionally moved param->string into
fc->source a close on the fscontext_fd would trigger a UAF during
put_fs_context() which frees fc->source thereby freeing the file stashed
in param->file causing a UAF during a close of the fd_null.
Fix this by verifying that param->type is actually a string and report
an error if not.
In follow up patches I'll add a new generic helper that can be used here
and by other filesystems instead of this error-prone copy-pasta fix.
But fixing it in here first makes backporting a it to stable a lot
easier.

bpf: Track subprog poke descriptors correctly and fix use-after-free
Subprograms are calling map_poke_track(), but on program release there is no hook to call map_poke_untrack(). However, on program release, the aux memory (and poke descriptor table) is freed even though we still have a reference to it in the element list of the map aux data. When we run map_poke_run(), we then end up accessing free'd memory, triggering KASAN in prog_array_map_poke_run(): [...] [ 402.824689] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in prog_array_map_poke_run+0xc2/0x34e [ 402.824698] Read of size 4 at addr ffff8881905a7940 by task hubble-fgs/4337 [ 402.824705] CPU: 1 PID: 4337 Comm: hubble-fgs Tainted: G I 5.12.0+ #399 [ 402.824715] Call Trace: [ 402.824719] dump_stack+0x93/0xc2 [ 402.824727] print_address_description.constprop.0+0x1a/0x140 [ 402.824736] ? prog_array_map_poke_run+0xc2/0x34e [ 402.824740] ? prog_array_map_poke_run+0xc2/0x34e [ 402.824744] kasan_report.cold+0x7c/0xd8 [ 402.824752] ? prog_array_map_poke_run+0xc2/0x34e [ 402.824757] prog_array_map_poke_run+0xc2/0x34e [ 402.824765] bpf_fd_array_map_update_elem+0x124/0x1a0 [...] The elements concerned are walked as follows: for (i = 0; i < elem->aux->size_poke_tab; i++) { poke = &elem->aux->poke_tab[i]; [...] The access to size_poke_tab is a 4 byte read, verified by checking offsets in the KASAN dump: [ 402.825004] The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff8881905a7800 which belongs to the cache kmalloc-1k of size 1024 [ 402.825008] The buggy address is located 320 bytes inside of 1024-byte region [ffff8881905a7800, ffff8881905a7c00) The pahole output of bpf_prog_aux: struct bpf_prog_aux { [...] /* --- cacheline 5 boundary (320 bytes) --- */ u32 size_poke_tab; /* 320 4 */ [...] In general, subprograms do not necessarily manage their own data structures. For example, BTF func_info and linfo are just pointers to the main program structure. This allows reference counting and cleanup to be done on the latter which simplifies their management a bit. The aux->poke_tab struct, however, did not follow this logic. The initial proposed fix for this use-after-free bug further embedded poke data tracking into the subprogram with proper reference counting. However, Daniel and Alexei questioned why we were treating these objects special; I agree, its unnecessary. The fix here removes the per subprogram poke table allocation and map tracking and instead simply points the aux->poke_tab pointer at the main programs poke table. This way, map tracking is simplified to the main program and we do not need to manage them per subprogram. This also means, bpf_prog_free_deferred(), which unwinds the program reference counting and kfrees objects, needs to ensure that we don't try to double free the poke_tab when free'ing the subprog structures. This is easily solved by NULL'ing the poke_tab pointer. The second detail is to ensure that per subprogram JIT logic only does fixups on poke_tab[] entries it owns. To do this, we add a pointer in the poke structure to point at the subprogram value so JITs can easily check while walking the poke_tab structure if the current entry belongs to the current program. The aux pointer is stable and therefore suitable for such comparison. On the jit_subprogs() error path, we omit cleaning up the poke->aux field because these are only ever referenced from the JIT side, but on error we will never make it to the JIT, so its fine to leave them dangling. Removing these pointers would complicate the error path for no reason. However, we do need to untrack all poke descriptors from the main program as otherwise they could race with the freeing of JIT memory from the subprograms. Lastly, |

module: add printk formats to add module build ID to stacktraces
Let's make kernel stacktraces easier to identify by including the build ID[1] of a module if the stacktrace is printing a symbol from a module. This makes it simpler for developers to locate a kernel module's full debuginfo for a particular stacktrace. Combined with scripts/decode_stracktrace.sh, a developer can download the matching debuginfo from a debuginfod[2] server and find the exact file and line number for the functions plus offsets in a stacktrace that match the module. This is especially useful for pstore crash debugging where the kernel crashes are recorded in something like console-ramoops and the recovery kernel/modules are different or the debuginfo doesn't exist on the device due to space concerns (the debuginfo can be too large for space limited devices). Originally, I put this on the %pS format, but that was quickly rejected given that %pS is used in other places such as ftrace where build IDs aren't meaningful. There was some discussions on the list to put every module build ID into the "Modules linked in:" section of the stacktrace message but that quickly becomes very hard to read once you have more than three or four modules linked in. It also provides too much information when we don't expect each module to be traversed in a stacktrace. Having the build ID for modules that aren't important just makes things messy. Splitting it to multiple lines for each module quickly explodes the number of lines printed in an oops too, possibly wrapping the warning off the console. And finally, trying to stash away each module used in a callstack to provide the ID of each symbol printed is cumbersome and would require changes to each architecture to stash away modules and return their build IDs once unwinding has completed. Instead, we opt for the simpler approach of introducing new printk formats '%pS[R]b' for "pointer symbolic backtrace with module build ID" and '%pBb' for "pointer backtrace with module build ID" and then updating the few places in the architecture layer where the stacktrace is printed to use this new format.

PM: hibernate: disable when there are active secretmem users
It is unsafe to allow saving of secretmem areas to the hibernation snapshot as they would be visible after the resume and this essentially will defeat the purpose of secret memory mappings. Prevent hibernation whenever there are active secret memory users.

mm: introduce memfd_secret system call to create "secret" memory areas
Introduce "memfd_secret" system call with the ability to create memory
areas visible only in the context of the owning process and not mapped not
only to other processes but in the kernel page tables as well.
The secretmem feature is off by default and the user must explicitly
enable it at the boot time.
Once secretmem is enabled, the user will be able to create a file
descriptor using the memfd_secret() system call. The memory areas created
by mmap() calls from this file descriptor will be unmapped from the kernel
direct map and they will be only mapped in the page table of the processes
that have access to the file descriptor.
Secretmem is designed to provide the following protections:
* Enhanced protection (in conjunction with all the other in-kernel
attack prevention systems) against ROP attacks. Seceretmem makes
"simple" ROP insufficient to perform exfiltration, which increases the
required complexity of the attack. Along with other protections like
the kernel stack size limit and address space layout randomization which
make finding gadgets is really hard, absence of any in-kernel primitive
for accessing secret memory means the one gadget ROP attack can't work.
Since the only way to access secret memory is to reconstruct the missing
mapping entry, the attacker has to recover the physical page and insert
a PTE pointing to it in the kernel and then retrieve the contents. That
takes at least three gadgets which is a level of difficulty beyond most
standard attacks.
* Prevent cross-process secret userspace memory exposures. Once the
secret memory is allocated, the user can't accidentally pass it into the
kernel to be transmitted somewhere. The secreremem pages cannot be
accessed via the direct map and they are disallowed in GUP.
* Harden against exploited kernel flaws. In order to access secretmem,
a kernel-side attack would need to either walk the page tables and
create new ones, or spawn a new privileged uiserspace process to perform
secrets exfiltration using ptrace.
The file descriptor based memory has several advantages over the
"traditional" mm interfaces, such as mlock(), mprotect(), madvise(). File
descriptor approach allows explicit and controlled sharing of the memory
areas, it allows to seal the operations. Besides, file descriptor based
memory paves the way for VMMs to remove the secret memory range from the
userspace hipervisor process, for instance QEMU. Andy Lutomirski says:
"Getting fd-backed memory into a guest will take some possibly major
work in the kernel, but getting vma-backed memory into a guest without
mapping it in the host user address space seems much, much worse."
memfd_secret() is made a dedicated system call rather than an extension to
memfd_create() because it's purpose is to allow the user to create more
secure memory mappings rather than to simply allow file based access to
the memory. Nowadays a new system call cost is negligible while it is way
simpler for userspace to deal with a clear-cut system calls than with a
multiplexer or an overloaded syscall. Moreover, the initial
implementation of memfd_secret() is completely distinct from
memfd_create() so there is no much sense in overloading memfd_create() to
begin with. If there will be a need for code sharing between these
implementation it can be easily achieved without a need to adjust user
visible APIs.
The secret memory remains accessible in the process context using uaccess
primitives, but it is not exposed to the kernel otherwise; secret memory
areas are removed from the direct map and functions in the
follow_page()/get_user_page() family will refuse to return a page that
belongs to the secret memory area.
Once there will be a use case that will require exposing secretmem to the
kernel it will be an opt-in request in the system call flags so that user
would have to decide what data can be exposed to the kernel.
Removing of the pages from the direct map may cause its fragmentation on
architectures that use large pages to map the physical memory which
affects the system performance. However, the original Kconfig text for
CONFIG_DIRECT_GBPAGES said that gigabyte pages in the direct map "... can
improve the kernel's performance a tiny bit ..." (commit
