Subject: [PATCH v12 6/8] powerpc: Set ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX
Date: Thu,  6 May 2021 12:34:47 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210506023449.3568630-7-jniethe5@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210506023449.3568630-1-jniethe5@gmail.com>

From: Russell Currey <ruscur@russell.cc>

To enable strict module RWX on powerpc, set:

    CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=y

You should also have CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX=y set to have any real
security benefit.

ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is set to require ARCH_HAS_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX.
This is due to a quirk in arch/Kconfig and arch/powerpc/Kconfig that
makes STRICT_MODULE_RWX *on by default* in configurations where
STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is *unavailable*.

Since this doesn't make much sense, and module RWX without kernel RWX
doesn't make much sense, having the same dependencies as kernel RWX
works around this problem.

With STRICT_MODULE_RWX, now make module_alloc() allocate pages with
KERNEL_PAGE protection rather than KERNEL_PAGE_EXEC.

Book32s/32 processors with a hash mmu (i.e. 604 core) can not set memory
protection on a page by page basis so do not enable.
