x86/shstk: Make return uprobe work with shadow stack

[ Upstream commit 1713b63a07a28a475de94664f783b4cfd2e4fa90 ]

Currently the application with enabled shadow stack will crash
if it sets up return uprobe. The reason is the uretprobe kernel
code changes the user space task's stack, but does not update
shadow stack accordingly.

Adding new functions to update values on shadow stack and using
them in uprobe code to keep shadow stack in sync with uretprobe
changes to user stack.

x86/shstk: Add warning for shadow stack double unmap

There are several ways a thread's shadow stacks can get unmapped. This
can happen on exit or exec, as well as error handling in exec or clone.
The task struct already keeps track of the thread's shadow stack. Use the
size variable to keep track of if the shadow stack has already been freed.

When an attempt to double unmap the thread shadow stack is caught, warn
about it and abort the operation.

x86/shstk: Handle vfork clone failure correctly

Shadow stacks are allocated automatically and freed on exit, depending
on the clone flags. The two cases where new shadow stacks are not
allocated are !CLONE_VM (fork()) and CLONE_VFORK (vfork()). For
!CLONE_VM, although a new stack is not allocated, it can be freed normally
because it will happen in the child's copy of the VM.

However, for CLONE_VFORK the parent and the child are actually using the
same shadow stack. So the kernel doesn't need to allocate *or* free a
shadow stack for a CLONE_VFORK child. CLONE_VFORK children already need
special tracking to avoid returning to userspace until the child exits or
execs. Shadow stack uses this same tracking to avoid freeing CLONE_VFORK
shadow stacks.

However, the tracking is not setup until the clone has succeeded
(internally). Which means, if a CLONE_VFORK fails, the existing logic will
not know it is a CLONE_VFORK and proceed to unmap the parents shadow stack.
This error handling cleanup logic runs via exit_thread() in the
bad_fork_cleanup_thread label in copy_process(). The issue was seen in
the glibc test "posix/tst-spawn3-pidfd" while running with shadow stack
using currently out-of-tree glibc patches.

Fix it by not unmapping the vfork shadow stack in the error case as well.
Since clone is implemented in core code, it is not ideal to pass the clone
flags along the error path in order to have shadow stack code have
symmetric logic in the freeing half of the thread shadow stack handling.

Instead use the existing state for thread shadow stacks to track whether
the thread is managing its own shadow stack. For CLONE_VFORK, simply set
shstk->base and shstk->size to 0, and have it mean the thread is not
managing a shadow stack and so should skip cleanup work. Implement this
by breaking up the CLONE_VFORK and !CLONE_VM cases in
shstk_alloc_thread_stack() to separate conditionals since, the logic is
now different between them. In the case of CLONE_VFORK && !CLONE_VM, the
existing behavior is to not clean up the shadow stack in the child (which
should go away quickly with either be exit or exec), so maintain that
behavior by handling the CLONE_VFORK case first in the allocation path.

This new logioc cleanly handles the case of normal, successful
CLONE_VFORK's skipping cleaning up their shadow stack's on exit as well.
So remove the existing, vfork shadow stack freeing logic. This is in
deactivate_mm() where vfork_done is used to tell if it is a vfork child
that can skip cleaning up the thread shadow stack.

Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).

CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
part of this feature, and just for userspace.

The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.

x86/shstk: Don't retry vm_munmap() on -EINTR

The existing comment around handling vm_munmap() failure when freeing a
shadow stack is wrong. It asserts that vm_munmap() returns -EINTR when
the mmap lock is only being held for a short time, and so the caller
should retry. Based on this wrong understanding, unmap_shadow_stack() will
loop retrying vm_munmap().

What -EINTR actually means in this case is that the process is going
away (see ae79878), and the whole MM will be torn down soon. In order
to facilitate this, the task should not linger in the kernel, but
actually do the opposite. So don't loop in this scenario, just abandon
the operation and let exit_mmap() clean it up. Also, update the comment
to reflect the actual meaning of the error code.

x86/shstk: Support WRSS for userspace

For the current shadow stack implementation, shadow stacks contents can't
easily be provisioned with arbitrary data. This property helps apps
protect themselves better, but also restricts any potential apps that may
want to do exotic things at the expense of a little security.

The x86 shadow stack feature introduces a new instruction, WRSS, which
can be enabled to write directly to shadow stack memory from userspace.
Allow it to get enabled via the prctl interface.

Only enable the userspace WRSS instruction, which allows writes to
userspace shadow stacks from userspace. Do not allow it to be enabled
independently of shadow stack, as HW does not support using WRSS when
shadow stack is disabled.

>From a fault handler perspective, WRSS will behave very similar to WRUSS,
which is treated like a user access from a #PF err code perspective.

x86/shstk: Introduce map_shadow_stack syscall

When operating with shadow stacks enabled, the kernel will automatically
allocate shadow stacks for new threads, however in some cases userspace
will need additional shadow stacks. The main example of this is the
ucontext family of functions, which require userspace allocating and
pivoting to userspace managed stacks.

Unlike most other user memory permissions, shadow stacks need to be
provisioned with special data in order to be useful. They need to be setup
with a restore token so that userspace can pivot to them via the RSTORSSP
instruction. But, the security design of shadow stacks is that they
should not be written to except in limited circumstances. This presents a
problem for userspace, as to how userspace can provision this special
data, without allowing for the shadow stack to be generally writable.

Previously, a new PROT_SHADOW_STACK was attempted, which could be
mprotect()ed from RW permissions after the data was provisioned. This was
found to not be secure enough, as other threads could write to the
shadow stack during the writable window.

The kernel can use a special instruction, WRUSS, to write directly to
userspace shadow stacks. So the solution can be that memory can be mapped
as shadow stack permissions from the beginning (never generally writable
in userspace), and the kernel itself can write the restore token.

First, a new madvise() flag was explored, which could operate on the
PROT_SHADOW_STACK memory. This had a couple of downsides:
1. Extra checks were needed in mprotect() to prevent writable memory from
ever becoming PROT_SHADOW_STACK.
2. Extra checks/vma state were needed in the new madvise() to prevent
restore tokens being written into the middle of pre-used shadow stacks.
It is ideal to prevent restore tokens being added at arbitrary
locations, so the check was to make sure the shadow stack had never been
written to.
3. It stood out from the rest of the madvise flags, as more of direct
action than a hint at future desired behavior.

So rather than repurpose two existing syscalls (mmap, madvise) that don't
quite fit, just implement a new map_shadow_stack syscall to allow
userspace to map and setup new shadow stacks in one step. While ucontext
is the primary motivator, userspace may have other unforeseen reasons to
setup its own shadow stacks using the WRSS instruction. Towards this
provide a flag so that stacks can be optionally setup securely for the
common case of ucontext without enabling WRSS. Or potentially have the
kernel set up the shadow stack in some new way.

The following example demonstrates how to create a new shadow stack with
map_shadow_stack:
void *shstk = map_shadow_stack(addr, stack_size, SHADOW_STACK_SET_TOKEN);

x86/shstk: Check that signal frame is shadow stack mem

The shadow stack signal frame is read by the kernel on sigreturn. It
relies on shadow stack memory protections to prevent forgeries of this
signal frame (which included the pre-signal SSP). This behavior helps
userspace protect itself. However, using the INCSSP instruction userspace
can adjust the SSP to 8 bytes beyond the end of a shadow stack. INCSSP
performs shadow stack reads to make sure it doesn’t increment off of the
shadow stack, but on the end position it actually reads 8 bytes below the
new SSP.

For the shadow stack HW operations, this situation (INCSSP off the end
of a shadow stack by 8 bytes) would be fine. If the a RET is executed, the
push to the shadow stack would fail to write to the shadow stack. If a
CALL is executed, the SSP will be incremented back onto the stack and the
return address will be written successfully to the very end. That is
expected behavior around shadow stack underflow.

However, the kernel doesn’t have a way to read shadow stack memory using
shadow stack accesses. WRUSS can write to shadow stack memory with a
shadow stack access which ensures the access is to shadow stack memory.
But unfortunately for this case, there is no equivalent instruction for
shadow stack reads. So when reading the shadow stack signal frames, the
kernel currently assumes the SSP is pointing to the shadow stack and uses
a normal read.

The SSP pointing to shadow stack memory will be true in most cases, but as
described above, in can be untrue by 8 bytes. So lookup the VMA of the
shadow stack sigframe being read to verify it is shadow stack.

Since the SSP can only be beyond the shadow stack by 8 bytes, and
shadow stack memory is page aligned, this check only needs to be done
when this type of relative position to a page boundary is encountered.
So skip the extra work otherwise.

x86/shstk: Check that SSP is aligned on sigreturn

The shadow stack signal frame is read by the kernel on sigreturn. It
relies on shadow stack memory protections to prevent forgeries of this
signal frame (which included the pre-signal SSP). It also relies on the
shadow stack signal frame to have bit 63 set. Since this bit would not be
set via typical shadow stack operations, so the kernel can assume it was a
value it placed there.

However, in order to support 32 bit shadow stack, the INCSSPD instruction
can increment the shadow stack by 4 bytes. In this case SSP might be
pointing to a region spanning two 8 byte shadow stack frames. It could
confuse the checks described above.

Since the kernel only supports shadow stack in 64 bit, just check that
the SSP is 8 byte aligned in the sigreturn path.

x86/shstk: Handle signals for shadow stack

When a signal is handled, the context is pushed to the stack before
handling it. For shadow stacks, since the shadow stack only tracks return
addresses, there isn't any state that needs to be pushed. However, there
are still a few things that need to be done. These things are visible to
userspace and which will be kernel ABI for shadow stacks.

One is to make sure the restorer address is written to shadow stack, since
the signal handler (if not changing ucontext) returns to the restorer, and
the restorer calls sigreturn. So add the restorer on the shadow stack
before handling the signal, so there is not a conflict when the signal
handler returns to the restorer.

The other thing to do is to place some type of checkable token on the
thread's shadow stack before handling the signal and check it during
sigreturn. This is an extra layer of protection to hamper attackers
calling sigreturn manually as in SROP-like attacks.

For this token the shadow stack data format defined earlier can be used.
Have the data pushed be the previous SSP. In the future the sigreturn
might want to return back to a different stack. Storing the SSP (instead
of a restore offset or something) allows for future functionality that
may want to restore to a different stack.

So, when handling a signal push
- the SSP pointing in the shadow stack data format
- the restorer address below the restore token.

In sigreturn, verify SSP is stored in the data format and pop the shadow
stack.

instructions like RSTORSSP/SAVEPREVSSP. However, sometimes the kernel will
need to write to the shadow stack directly using the ring-0 only WRUSS
instruction.

A shadow stack restore token marks a restore point of the shadow stack, and
the address in a token must point directly above the token, which is within
the same shadow stack. This is distinctively different from other pointers
on the shadow stack, since those pointers point to executable code area.

Introduce token setup and verify routines. Also introduce WRUSS, which is
a kernel-mode instruction but writes directly to user shadow stack.

In future patches that enable shadow stack to work with signals, the kernel
will need something to denote the point in the stack where sigreturn may be
called. This will prevent attackers calling sigreturn at arbitrary places
in the stack, in order to help prevent SROP attacks.

To do this, something that can only be written by the kernel needs to be
placed on the shadow stack. This can be accomplished by setting bit 63 in
the frame written to the shadow stack. Userspace return addresses can't
have this bit set as it is in the kernel range. It also can't be a valid
restore token.

x86/shstk: Handle thread shadow stack

When a process is duplicated, but the child shares the address space with
the parent, there is potential for the threads sharing a single stack to
cause conflicts for each other. In the normal non-CET case this is handled
in two ways.

With regular CLONE_VM a new stack is provided by userspace such that the
parent and child have different stacks.

For vfork, the parent is suspended until the child exits. So as long as
the child doesn't return from the vfork()/CLONE_VFORK calling function and
sticks to a limited set of operations, the parent and child can share the
same stack.

For shadow stack, these scenarios present similar sharing problems. For the
CLONE_VM case, the child and the parent must have separate shadow stacks.
Instead of changing clone to take a shadow stack, have the kernel just
allocate one and switch to it.

Use stack_size passed from clone3() syscall for thread shadow stack size. A
compat-mode thread shadow stack size is further reduced to 1/4. This
allows more threads to run in a 32-bit address space. The clone() does not
pass stack_size, which was added to clone3(). In that case, use
RLIMIT_STACK size and cap to 4 GB.

For shadow stack enabled vfork(), the parent and child can share the same
shadow stack, like they can share a normal stack. Since the parent is
suspended until the child terminates, the child will not interfere with
the parent while executing as long as it doesn't return from the vfork()
and overwrite up the shadow stack. The child can safely overwrite down
the shadow stack, as the parent can just overwrite this later. So CET does
not add any additional limitations for vfork().

Free the shadow stack on thread exit by doing it in mm_release(). Skip
this when exiting a vfork() child since the stack is shared in the
parent.

During this operation, the shadow stack pointer of the new thread needs
to be updated to point to the newly allocated shadow stack. Since the
ability to do this is confined to the FPU subsystem, change
fpu_clone() to take the new shadow stack pointer, and update it
internally inside the FPU subsystem. This part was suggested by Thomas
Gleixner.

x86/shstk: Add user-mode shadow stack support

Introduce basic shadow stack enabling/disabling/allocation routines.
A task's shadow stack is allocated from memory with VM_SHADOW_STACK flag
and has a fixed size of min(RLIMIT_STACK, 4GB).

Keep the task's shadow stack address and size in thread_struct. This will
be copied when cloning new threads, but needs to be cleared during exec,
so add a function to do this.

32 bit shadow stack is not expected to have many users and it will
complicate the signal implementation. So do not support IA32 emulation
or x32.
