[RFC PATCH v3 5/5] virt: Add Heki KUnit tests

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The new CONFIG_HEKI_KUNIT_TEST option enables to run tests in a a kernel
module.  The minimal required configuration is listed in the
virt/heki-test/.kunitconfig file.

test_cr_disable_smep checks control-register pinning by trying to
disable SMEP.  This test should then failed on a non-protected kernel,
and only succeed with a kernel protected by Heki.

This test doesn't rely on native_write_cr4() because of the
cr4_pinned_mask hardening, which means that this *test* module loads a
valid kernel code to arbitrary change CR4.  This simulate an attack
scenario where an attaker would use ROP to directly jump to the related
cr4 instruction.

As for any KUnit test, the kernel is tainted with TAINT_TEST when the
test is executed.

It is interesting to create new KUnit tests instead of extending KVM's
Kselftests because Heki is design to be hypervisor-agnostic, it relies
on a set of hypercalls (for KVM or others), and we also want to test
kernel's configuration (actual pinned CR).  However, new KVM's
Kselftests would be useful to test KVM's interface with the host.

When using Qemu, we need to pass the following arguments: -cpu host
-enable-kvm

For now, it is not possible to run these tests as built-in but we are
working on that [1].  If tests are built-in anyway, they will just be
skipped because Heki would not be enabled.

Run Heki tests with:
  insmod heki-test.ko

  KTAP version 1
  1..1
      KTAP version 1
      # Subtest: heki_x86
      # module: heki_test
      1..1
      ok 1 test_cr_disable_smep
  ok 1 heki_x86

Changes since v2:
* Make tests standalone (e.g. don't depends on CONFIG_HEKI).
* Enable to create a test kernel module.
* Don't rely on private kernel symbols.
* Handle GP fault for CR-pinning test case.
* Rename option to CONFIG_HEKI_KUNIT_TEST.
* Add the list of required kernel options.
* Move tests to virt/heki-test/ [FIXME]
* Only keep CR pinning test.
* Restore previous state (with SMEP enabled).
* Add a Kconfig menu for Heki and update the description.
* Skip tests if Heki is not protecting the running kernel.

Changes since v1:
* Move all tests to virt/heki/tests.c
