Fork of reMarkable kernel https://github.com/reMarkable/linux
06b32fdb03
This adds an x86-specific test for pinned cr4 bits. A successful test will validate pinning and check the ROP-style call-middle-of-function defense, if needed. For example, in the case of native_write_cr4() looking like this: ffffffff8171bce0 <native_write_cr4>: ffffffff8171bce0: 48 8b 35 79 46 f2 00 mov 0xf24679(%rip),%rsi ffffffff8171bce7: 48 09 f7 or %rsi,%rdi ffffffff8171bcea: 0f 22 e7 mov %rdi,%cr4 ... ffffffff8171bd5a: c3 retq The UNSET_SMEP test will jump to ffffffff8171bcea (the mov to cr4) instead of ffffffff8171bce0 (native_write_cr4() entry) to simulate a direct-call bypass attempt. Expected successful results: # echo UNSET_SMEP > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT # dmesg [ 79.594433] lkdtm: Performing direct entry UNSET_SMEP [ 79.596459] lkdtm: trying to clear SMEP normally [ 79.598406] lkdtm: ok: SMEP did not get cleared [ 79.599981] lkdtm: trying to clear SMEP with call gadget [ 79.601810] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 79.603421] Attempt to unpin cr4 bits: 100000; bypass attack?! ... [ 79.650170] ---[ end trace 2452ca0f6126242e ]--- [ 79.650937] lkdtm: ok: SMEP removal was reverted Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
