The ptrace PEEKUSR/POKEUSR (aka PEEKUSER/POKEUSER) API allows a process to read/write registers of another process. To get/set a register, the API takes an index into an imaginary address space called the "USER area", where the registers of the process are laid out in some fashion. The kernel then maps that index to a particular register in its own data structures and gets/sets the value. The API only allows a single machine-word to be read/written at a time. So 4 bytes on 32-bit kernels and 8 bytes on 64-bit kernels. The way floating point registers (FPRs) are addressed is somewhat complicated, because double precision float values are 64-bit even on 32-bit CPUs. That means on 32-bit kernels each FPR occupies two word-sized locations in the USER area. On 64-bit kernels each FPR occupies one word-sized location in the USER area. Internally the kernel stores the FPRs in an array of u64s, or if VSX is enabled, an array of pairs of u64s where one half of each pair stores the FPR. Which half of the pair stores the FPR depends on the kernel's endianness. To handle the different layouts of the FPRs depending on VSX/no-VSX and big/little endian, the TS_FPR() macro was introduced. Unfortunately the TS_FPR() macro does not take into account the fact that the addressing of each FPR differs between 32-bit and 64-bit kernels. It just takes the index into the "USER area" passed from userspace and indexes into the fp_state.fpr array. On 32-bit there are 64 indexes that address FPRs, but only 32 entries in the fp_state.fpr array, meaning the user can read/write 256 bytes past the end of the array. Because the fp_state sits in the middle of the thread_struct there are various fields than can be overwritten, including some pointers. As such it may be exploitable. It has also been observed to cause systems to hang or otherwise misbehave when using gdbserver, and is probably the root cause of this report which could not be easily reproduced: https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/dc38afe9-6b78-f3f5-666b-986939e40fc6@keymile.com/ Rather than trying to make the TS_FPR() macro even more complicated to fix the bug, or add more macros, instead add a special-case for 32-bit kernels. This is more obvious and hopefully avoids a similar bug happening again in future. Note that because 32-bit kernels never have VSX enabled the code doesn't need to consider TS_FPRWIDTH/OFFSET at all. Add a BUILD_BUG_ON() to ensure that 32-bit && VSX is never enabled.
