Memory Protection Keys for User pages is a CPU feature which will
first appear on Skylake Servers, but will also be supported on
future non-server parts (there is also a QEMU implementation). It
provides a mechanism for enforcing page-based protections, but
without requiring modification of the page tables when an
application changes wishes to change permissions.
This set introduces supported limited to:
1. Allows "execute-only" memory
2. Enables KVM to run Protection-Key-enabled guests
This set contains the vast majority of of the code, with the
small but tricky explicit user interface parts left off. We can
have a more focused review on those at a later time in a (much
smaller) follow-on series.
Changes from v8:
* Reorganization of get_user_pages() patch with awesome feedback
from Vlastimil Babka and suggestions from Jan Kara.
* fix EXPORT_SYMBOL() and use get_current_user_page() in nommu.c
Changes from v7:
* Fixed merge issue with cpu feature bitmap definitions
* Fixed up some comments in get_user_pages() and smaps patches
(thanks Vlastimil!)
Changes from v6:
* fix up ??'s showing up in in smaps' VmFlags field
* added execute-only support
* removed all the new syscalls from this set. We can discuss
them in detail after this is merged.
Changes from v5:
* make types in read_pkru() u32's, not ints
* rework VM_* bits to avoid using __ffsl() and clean up
vma_pkey()
* rework pte_allows_gup() to use p??_val() instead of passing
around p{te,md,ud}_t types.
* Fix up some inconsistent bool vs. int usage
* corrected name of ARCH_VM_PKEY_FLAGS in patch description
* remove NR_PKEYS... config option. Just define it directly
Changes from v4:
* Made "allow setting of XSAVE state" safe if we got preempted
between when we saved our FPU state and when we restore it.
(I would appreciate a look from Ingo on this patch).
* Fixed up a few things from Thomas's latest comments: splt up
siginfo in to x86 and generic, removed extra 'eax' variable
in rdpkru function, reworked vm_flags assignment, reworded
a comment in pte_allows_gup()
* Add missing DISABLED/REQUIRED_MASK14 in cpufeature.h
* Added comment about compile optimization in fault path
* Left get_user_pages_locked() alone. Andrea thinks we need it.
Changes from RFCv3:
* Added 'current' and 'foreign' variants of get_user_pages() to
help indicate whether protection keys should be enforced.
Thanks to Jerome Glisse for pointing out this issue.
* Added "allocation" and set/get system calls so that we can do
management of proection keys in the kernel. This opens the
door to use of specific protection keys for kernel use in the
future, such as for execute-only memory.
* Removed the kselftest code for the moment. It will be
submitted separately.
Thanks Ingo and Thomas for most of these):
Changes from RFCv2 (Thanks Ingo and Thomas for most of these):
* few minor compile warnings
* changed 'nopku' interaction with cpuid bits. Now, we do not
clear the PKU cpuid bit, we just skip enabling it.
* changed __pkru_allows_write() to also check access disable bit
* removed the unused write_pkru()
* made si_pkey a u64 and added some patch description details.
Also made it share space in siginfo with MPX and clarified
comments.
* give some real text for the Processor Trace xsave state
* made vma_pkey() less ugly (and much more optimized actually)
* added SEGV_PKUERR to copy_siginfo_to_user()
* remove page table walk when filling in si_pkey, added some
big fat comments about it being inherently racy.
* added self test code
This code is not runnable to anyone outside of Intel unless they
have some special hardware or a fancy simulator. There is a qemu
model to emulate the feature, but it is not currently implemented
fully enough to be usable. If you are interested in running this
for real, please get in touch with me. Hardware is available to a
very small but nonzero number of people.
