As PP00 is used for # non _PAGE_USER pages, user can't access kernel pages not flagged # _PAGE_USER while kernel can. # # For userspace segments, both kernel and user accesses are performed # with key 0, therefore pages not flagged _PAGE_USER are still # accessible to the user. # # This shouldn't be an issue, because userspace is expected to be # accessible to the user. But unlike most other architectures, powerpc # implements PROT_NONE protection by removing _PAGE_USER flag instead of # flagging the page as not valid. This means that pages in userspace # that are not flagged _PAGE_USER shall remain inaccessible. # # To get the expected behaviour, just mimic other architectures in the # TLB miss handler by checking _PAGE_USER permission on userspace # accesses as if it was the _PAGE_PRESENT bit. # # Note that this problem only is only for 603 cores. The 604+ have # an hash table, and hash_page() function already implement the # verification of _PAGE_USER permission on userspace pages. # # Fixes: f342adca3afc ("powerpc/32s: Prepare Kernel Userspace Access Protection") # Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v5.2+ # Reported-by: Christoph Plattner # Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy # Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman # Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/4a0c6e3bb8f0c162457bf54d9bc6fd8d7b55129f.1612160907.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-9.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-gcc --version # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-9.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-ld --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 51d92826594c3ac1f9b7179a3ab246394a11ecd8 # < make -s -j 120 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_pseries_defconfig+POWERNV=n_powerpc-gcc9 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-9.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- pseries_defconfig # Added to kconfig CONFIG_PPC_POWERNV=n # < make -s -j 120 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_pseries_defconfig+POWERNV=n_powerpc-gcc9 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-9.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- help # make -s -j 120 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_pseries_defconfig+POWERNV=n_powerpc-gcc9 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-9.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- olddefconfig # make -s -j 120 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_pseries_defconfig+POWERNV=n_powerpc-gcc9 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-9.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- Completed OK # rm -rf /kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_pseries_defconfig+POWERNV=n_powerpc-gcc9 # Build took: 0:02:13.752549
