That involves changing the code, # target and key members in struct jump_entry to be relative to the # address of the jump_entry, rather than absolute addresses. # # We have two static inlines that create a struct jump_entry, # arch_static_branch() and arch_static_branch_jump(), as well as an asm # macro ARCH_STATIC_BRANCH, which is used by the pseries-only hypervisor # tracing code. # # Unfortunately we missed updating the key to be a relative reference in # ARCH_STATIC_BRANCH. # # That causes a pseries kernel to have a handful of jump_entry structs # with bad key values. Instead of being a relative reference they instead # hold the full address of the key. # # However the code doesn't expect that, it still adds the key value to the # address of the jump_entry (see jump_entry_key()) expecting to get a # pointer to a key somewhere in kernel data. # # The table of jump_entry structs sits in rodata, which comes after the # kernel text. In a typical build this will be somewhere around 15MB. The # address of the key will be somewhere in data, typically around 20MB. # Adding the two values together gets us a pointer somewhere around 45MB. # # We then call static_key_set_entries() with that bad pointer and modify # some members of the struct static_key we think we are pointing at. # # A pseries kernel is typically ~30MB in size, so writing to ~45MB won't # corrupt the kernel itself. However if we're booting with an initrd, # depending on the size and exact location of the initrd, we can corrupt # the initrd. Depending on how exactly we corrupt the initrd it can either # cause the system to not boot, or just corrupt one of the files in the # initrd. # # The fix is simply to make the key value relative to the jump_entry # struct in the ARCH_STATIC_BRANCH macro. # # Fixes: b0b3b2c78ec0 ("powerpc: Switch to relative jump labels") # Reported-by: Anastasia Kovaleva <a.kovaleva@yadro.com> # Reported-by: Roman Bolshakov <r.bolshakov@yadro.com> # Reported-by: Greg Kurz <groug@kaod.org> # Reported-by: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net> # Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> # Tested-by: Daniel Axtens <dja@axtens.net> # Tested-by: Greg Kurz <groug@kaod.org> # Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> # Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210614131440.312360-1-mpe@ellerman.id.au # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-4.9.4-nolibc/x86_64-linux/bin/x86_64-linux-gcc --version # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-4.9.4-nolibc/x86_64-linux/bin/x86_64-linux-ld --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 478036c4cd1a16e613a2f883d79c03cf187faacb # < make -s -j 48 ARCH=x86_64 O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_x86_64-allnoconfig_x86_64-gcc4.9 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-4.9.4-nolibc/x86_64-linux/bin/x86_64-linux- allnoconfig # < make -s -j 48 ARCH=x86_64 O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_x86_64-allnoconfig_x86_64-gcc4.9 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-4.9.4-nolibc/x86_64-linux/bin/x86_64-linux- help # make -s -j 48 ARCH=x86_64 O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_x86_64-allnoconfig_x86_64-gcc4.9 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-4.9.4-nolibc/x86_64-linux/bin/x86_64-linux- olddefconfig # make -s -j 48 ARCH=x86_64 O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_x86_64-allnoconfig_x86_64-gcc4.9 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-4.9.4-nolibc/x86_64-linux/bin/x86_64-linux- Completed OK # rm -rf /kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_x86_64-allnoconfig_x86_64-gcc4.9 # Build took: 0:00:28.203994
