[PATCH v6 0/4] E0PD support

[PATCH v6 0/4] E0PD support

[Mark Brown]

This series adds support for E0PD. We enable E0PD unconditionally where
present on systems where all the CPUs in the system support E0PD and
change to not enabling KPTI by default on systems where we have enabled
E0PD. It also converts the runtime checks for use of non-global mappings
into a variable.

v6: Move early initialization earlier.
v5: Rebase on v5.4-rc3 (there will be conflicts in cpucaps.h) and add
    code in patch 4 to start making non-global mappings from boot if we
    know then that we will need KPTI, preserving an existing performance
    improvement.
v4: Use a variable to store our decision about using non-global mappings
    rather than rechecking constantly at runtime. I've added this as a
    separate patch mainly for bisection.
v3: Make E0PD a system wide feature.

Mark Brown (4):
  arm64: Add initial support for E0PD
  arm64: Factor out checks for KASLR in KPTI code into separate function
  arm64: Don't use KPTI where we have E0PD
  arm64: Use a variable to store non-global mappings decision

[PATCH v6 1/4] arm64: Add initial support for E0PD

[Mark Brown]

Kernel Page Table Isolation (KPTI) is used to mitigate some speculation
based security issues by ensuring that the kernel is not mapped when
userspace is running but this approach is expensive and is incompatible
with SPE.  E0PD, introduced in the ARMv8.5 extensions, provides an
alternative to this which ensures that accesses from userspace to the
kernel's half of the memory map to always fault with constant time,
preventing timing attacks without requiring constant unmapping and
remapping or preventing legitimate accesses.

Currently this feature will only be enabled if all CPUs in the system
support E0PD, if some CPUs do not support the feature at boot time then
the feature will not be enabled and in the unlikely event that a late
CPU is the first CPU to lack the feature then we will reject that CPU.

This initial patch does not yet integrate with KPTI, this will be dealt
with in followup patches.  Ideally we could ensure that by default we
don't use KPTI on CPUs where E0PD is present.

[PATCH v6 2/4] arm64: Factor out checks for KASLR in KPTI code into separate function

[Mark Brown]

In preparation for integrating E0PD support with KASLR factor out the
checks for interaction between KASLR and KPTI done in boot context into
a new function kaslr_requires_kpti(), in the process clarifying the
distinction between what we do in boot context and what we do at
runtime.

[PATCH v6 3/4] arm64: Don't use KPTI where we have E0PD

[Mark Brown]

Since E0PD is intended to fulfil the same role as KPTI we don't need to
use KPTI on CPUs where E0PD is available, we can rely on E0PD instead.
Change the check that forces KPTI on when KASLR is enabled to check for
E0PD before doing so, CPUs with E0PD are not expected to be affected by
meltdown so should not need to enable KPTI for other reasons.

Since E0PD is a system capability we will still enable KPTI if any of
the CPUs in the system lacks E0PD, this will rewrite any global mappings
that were established in systems where some but not all CPUs support
E0PD.  We may transiently have a mix of global and non-global mappings
while booting since we use the local CPU when deciding if KPTI will be
required prior to completing CPU enumeration but any global mappings
will be converted to non-global ones when KPTI is applied.

KPTI can still be forced on from the command line if required.

[PATCH v6 4/4] arm64: Use a variable to store non-global mappings decision

[Mark Brown]

Refactor the code which checks to see if we need to use non-global
mappings to use a variable instead of checking with the CPU capabilities
each time, doing the initial check for KPTI early in boot before we
start allocating memory so we still avoid transitioning to non-global
mappings in common cases.

Since this variable always matches our decision about non-global
mappings this means we can also combine arm64_kernel_use_ng_mappings()
and arm64_unmap_kernel_at_el0() into a single function, the variable
simply stores the result and the decision code is elsewhere. We could
just have the users check the variable directly but having a function
makes it clear that these uses are read-only.

The result is that we simplify the code a bit and reduces the amount of
code executed at runtime.

This really needs to be done before map_kernel() and map_mem() in
paging_init(). Tested this series and most of the linear map does not
have the nG bit when it should (/sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables).

Hrm, right.  That was getting hidden in the other noise in the diffs
(I've been mainly checking that I was getting similar page tables
between the various configurations in hetrogenous systems).  It looks
like anywhere paging_init() is too late, the reordering you suggest
still leaves some stray non-global mappings.  I've moved it to the start
of setup_arch() which seems early enough.
