From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The kernel page tables are inherited from head_64.S which rudely marks
them as _PAGE_GLOBAL. For PTI, we have been relying on the grace of
$DEITY and some insane behavior in pageattr.c. Now we do it properly.
First, stop filtering out "unsupported" bits from being cleared in the
pageattr code. It's fine to filter out *setting* these bits but it
is insane to keep us from clearing them.
Then, *explicitly* go clear _PAGE_GLOBAL from the kernel identity map.
Do not rely on pageattr to do it magically.
After this patch, we can see that "GLB" shows up in each copy of the
page tables, that we have the same number of global entries in each
and that they are the *same* entries.
# grep -c GLB /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/*
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_kernel:11
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_user:11
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/kernel:11
# for f in `ls /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/`; do grep GLB /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/$f > $f.GLB; done
# md5sum *.GLB
9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d current_kernel.GLB
9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d current_user.GLB
9caae8ad6a1fb53aca2407ec037f612d kernel.GLB
A quick visual audit also shows that all the entries make sense.
0xfffffe0000000000 is the cpu_entry_area and 0xffffffff81c00000
is the entry/exit text:
# grep -c GLB /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/current_user
0xfffffe0000000000-0xfffffe0000002000 8K ro GLB NX pte
0xfffffe0000002000-0xfffffe0000003000 4K RW GLB NX pte
