<title>powerpc/64s: Enable KFENCE on book3s64</title>

<content type='text'>
KFENCE support was added for ppc32 in commit 90cbac0e995d
("powerpc: Enable KFENCE for PPC32").
Enable KFENCE on ppc64 architecture with hash and radix MMUs.
It uses the same mechanism as debug pagealloc to
protect/unprotect pages. All KFENCE kunit tests pass on both
MMUs.

KFENCE memory is initially allocated using memblock but is
later marked as SLAB allocated. This necessitates the change
to __pud_free to ensure that the KFENCE pages are freed
appropriately.

Based on previous work by Christophe Leroy and Jordan Niethe.

<content type='text'>
Because 64-bit Book3S uses pgtable-nop4d.h, the P4D is folded into the
PGD. So P4D entries are actually PGD entries, or vice versa.

The other way to think of it is that the P4D is a single entry page
table below the PGD. Zero bits of the address are needed to index into
the P4D, therefore a P4D entry maps the same size address space as a PGD
entry.

As explained in the previous commit, there are no huge page sizes
supported directly at the PGD level on 64-bit Book3S, so there are also
no huge page sizes supported at the P4D level.

Therefore p4d_is_leaf() can never be true, so drop the definition and
fallback to the default implementation that always returns false.

Allow PTE changes to avoid flushing the TLB when access permissions are
being relaxed, the dirty bit is being set, and the accessed bit is being
changed.

Relaxing access permissions and setting dirty and accessed bits do not
require a flush because the MMU will re-load the PTE and notice the
updates (it may also cause a spurious fault).

Clearing the accessed bit does not require a flush because of the
imprecise PTE accessed bit accounting that is already performed, as
documented in ptep_clear_flush_young().

This reduces TLB flushing for some mprotect(2) calls.

<title>powerpc/mm: Support execute-only memory on the Radix MMU</title>

<id>urn:sha1:395cac7752b905318ae454a8b859d4c190485510</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for execute-only memory (XOM) for the Radix MMU by using an
execute-only mapping, as opposed to the RX mapping used by powerpc's
other MMUs.

The Hash MMU already supports XOM through the execute-only pkey,
which is a separate mechanism shared with x86.  A PROT_EXEC-only mapping
will map to RX, and then the pkey will be applied on top of it.

mmap() and mprotect() consumers in userspace should observe the same
behaviour on Hash and Radix despite the differences in implementation.

Replacing the vma_is_accessible() check in access_error() with a read
check should be functionally equivalent for non-Radix MMUs, since it
follows write and execute checks.  For Radix, the change enables
detecting faults on execute-only mappings where vma_is_accessible() would
return true.

<title>powerpc: Book3S 64-bit outline-only KASAN support</title>

<id>urn:sha1:41b7a347bf1491e7300563bb224432608b41f62a</id>
<content type='text'>
Implement a limited form of KASAN for Book3S 64-bit machines running under
the Radix MMU, supporting only outline mode.

 - Enable the compiler instrumentation to check addresses and maintain the
   shadow region. (This is the guts of KASAN which we can easily reuse.)

 - Require kasan-vmalloc support to handle modules and anything else in
   vmalloc space.

 - KASAN needs to be able to validate all pointer accesses, but we can't
   instrument all kernel addresses - only linear map and vmalloc. On boot,
   set up a single page of read-only shadow that marks all iomap and
   vmemmap accesses as valid.

 - Document KASAN in powerpc docs.

Background
----------

KASAN support on Book3S is a bit tricky to get right:

 - It would be good to support inline instrumentation so as to be able to
   catch stack issues that cannot be caught with outline mode.

 - Inline instrumentation requires a fixed offset.

 - Book3S runs code with translations off ("real mode") during boot,
   including a lot of generic device-tree parsing code which is used to
   determine MMU features.

    [ppc64 mm note: The kernel installs a linear mapping at effective
    address c000...-c008.... This is a one-to-one mapping with physical
    memory from 0000... onward. Because of how memory accesses work on
    powerpc 64-bit Book3S, a kernel pointer in the linear map accesses the
    same memory both with translations on (accessing as an 'effective
    address'), and with translations off (accessing as a 'real
    address'). This works in both guests and the hypervisor. For more
    details, see s5.7 of Book III of version 3 of the ISA, in particular
    the Storage Control Overview, s5.7.3, and s5.7.5 - noting that this
    KASAN implementation currently only supports Radix.]

 - Some code - most notably a lot of KVM code - also runs with translations
   off after boot.

 - Therefore any offset has to point to memory that is valid with
   translations on or off.

One approach is just to give up on inline instrumentation. This way
boot-time checks can be delayed until after the MMU is set is up, and we
can just not instrument any code that runs with translations off after
booting. Take this approach for now and require outline instrumentation.

Previous attempts allowed inline instrumentation. However, they came with
some unfortunate restrictions: only physically contiguous memory could be
used and it had to be specified at compile time. Maybe we can do better in
the future.

[paulus@ozlabs.org - Rebased onto 5.17.  Note that a kernel with
 CONFIG_KASAN=y will crash during boot on a machine using HPT
 translation because not all the entry points to the generic
 KASAN code are protected with a call to kasan_arch_is_ready().]
