x86/mm/pkeys: Allow kernel to modify user pkey rights register

2016-02-18T18:46:32+00:00

The Protection Key Rights for User memory (PKRU) is a 32-bit user-accessible register. It contains two bits for each protection key: one to write-disable (WD) access to memory covered by the key and another to access-disable (AD). Userspace can read/write the register with the RDPKRU and WRPKRU instructions. But, the register is saved and restored with the XSAVE family of instructions, which means we have to treat it like a floating point register. The kernel needs to write to the register if it wants to implement execute-only memory or if it implements a system call to change PKRU. To do this, we need to create a 'pkru_state' buffer, read the old contents in to it, modify it, and then tell the FPU code that there is modified data in there so it can (possibly) move the buffer back in to the registers. This uses the fpu__xfeature_set_state() function that we defined in the previous patch.

mm/gup, x86/mm/pkeys: Check VMAs and PTEs for protection keys

2016-02-18T08:32:44+00:00

Today, for normal faults and page table walks, we check the VMA and/or PTE to ensure that it is compatible with the action. For instance, if we get a write fault on a non-writeable VMA, we SIGSEGV. We try to do the same thing for protection keys. Basically, we try to make sure that if a user does this: mprotect(ptr, size, PROT_NONE); *ptr = foo; they see the same effects with protection keys when they do this: mprotect(ptr, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE); set_pkey(ptr, size, 4); wrpkru(0xffffff3f); // access disable pkey 4 *ptr = foo; The state to do that checking is in the VMA, but we also sometimes have to do it on the page tables only, like when doing a get_user_pages_fast() where we have no VMA. We add two functions and expose them to generic code: arch_pte_access_permitted(pte_flags, write) arch_vma_access_permitted(vma, write) These are, of course, backed up in x86 arch code with checks against the PTE or VMA's protection key. But, there are also cases where we do not want to respect protection keys. When we ptrace(), for instance, we do not want to apply the tracer's PKRU permissions to the PTEs from the process being traced.

x86/mm/pkeys: Add functions to fetch PKRU

2016-02-18T08:32:43+00:00

This adds the raw instruction to access PKRU as well as some accessor functions that correctly handle when the CPU does not support the instruction. We don't use it here, but we will use read_pkru() in the next patch.

mm, x86: get_user_pages() for dax mappings

2016-01-16T01:56:32+00:00

A dax mapping establishes a pte with _PAGE_DEVMAP set when the driver has established a devm_memremap_pages() mapping, i.e. when the pfn_t return from ->direct_access() has PFN_DEV and PFN_MAP set. Later, when encountering _PAGE_DEVMAP during a page table walk we lookup and pin a struct dev_pagemap instance to keep the result of pfn_to_page() valid until put_page().

mm, dax: dax-pmd vs thp-pmd vs hugetlbfs-pmd

2016-01-16T01:56:32+00:00

A dax-huge-page mapping while it uses some thp helpers is ultimately not a transparent huge page. The distinction is especially important in the get_user_pages() path. pmd_devmap() is used to distinguish dax-pmds from pmd_huge() and pmd_trans_huge() which have slightly different semantics. Explicitly mark the pmd_trans_huge() helpers that dax needs by adding pmd_devmap() checks.

2016-01-16T01:56:32+00:00

Convert the raw unsigned long 'pfn' argument to pfn_t for the purpose of evaluating the PFN_MAP and PFN_DEV flags. When both are set it triggers _PAGE_DEVMAP to be set in the resulting pte. There are no functional changes to the gpu drivers as a result of this conversion.
