<content type='text'>
commit 57690554abe135fee81d6ac33cc94d75a7e224bb upstream.

Both __pkru_allows_write() and arch_set_user_pkey_access() shift
PKRU_WD_BIT (a signed constant) by up to 30 bits, hitting the
sign bit.

Use unsigned constants instead.

Clearly pkey 15 has not been used in combination with UBSAN yet.

Noticed by code inspection only.  I can't actually provoke the
compiler into generating incorrect logic as far as this shift is
concerned.

[
  dhansen: add stable@ tag, plus minor changelog massaging,

           For anyone doing backports, these #defines were in
	   arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h before 784a46618f6.

<content type='text'>
commit 5bfea2d9b17f1034a68147a8b03b9789af5700f9 upstream.

The original code in mm/mremap.c checks huge pmd by:

		if (is_swap_pmd(*old_pmd) || pmd_trans_huge(*old_pmd)) {

However, a DAX mapped nvdimm is mapped as huge page (by default) but it
is not transparent huge page (_PAGE_PSE | PAGE_DEVMAP).  This commit
changes the condition to include the case.

This addresses CVE-2020-10757.

<title>x86: Don't let pgprot_modify() change the page encryption bit</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 6db73f17c5f155dbcfd5e48e621c706270b84df0 ]

When SEV or SME is enabled and active, vm_get_page_prot() typically
returns with the encryption bit set. This means that users of
pgprot_modify(, vm_get_page_prot()) (mprotect_fixup(), do_mmap()) end up
with a value of vma-&gt;vm_pg_prot that is not consistent with the intended
protection of the PTEs.

This is also important for fault handlers that rely on the VMA
vm_page_prot to set the page protection. Fix this by not allowing
pgprot_modify() to change the encryption bit, similar to how it's done
for PAT bits.

<title>x86/mm: Use WRITE_ONCE() when setting PTEs</title>
<updated>2018-09-08T10:30:36Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Nadav Amit</name>
</author>
<published>2018-09-02T18:14:50Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=9bc4f28af75a91aea0ae383f50b0a430c4509303'/>
<id>urn:sha1:9bc4f28af75a91aea0ae383f50b0a430c4509303</id>
<content type='text'>
When page-table entries are set, the compiler might optimize their
assignment by using multiple instructions to set the PTE. This might
turn into a security hazard if the user somehow manages to use the
interim PTE. L1TF does not make our lives easier, making even an interim
non-present PTE a security hazard.

Using WRITE_ONCE() to set PTEs and friends should prevent this potential
security hazard.

I skimmed the differences in the binary with and without this patch. The
differences are (obviously) greater when CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n as more
code optimizations are possible. For better and worse, the impact on the
binary with this patch is pretty small. Skimming the code did not cause
anything to jump out as a security hazard, but it seems that at least
move_soft_dirty_pte() caused set_pte_at() to use multiple writes.

<title>Merge branch 'l1tf-final' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip</title>

Merge L1 Terminal Fault fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "L1TF, aka L1 Terminal Fault, is yet another speculative hardware
  engineering trainwreck. It's a hardware vulnerability which allows
  unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in the
  Level 1 Data Cache when the page table entry controlling the virtual
  address, which is used for the access, has the Present bit cleared or
  other reserved bits set.

  If an instruction accesses a virtual address for which the relevant
  page table entry (PTE) has the Present bit cleared or other reserved
  bits set, then speculative execution ignores the invalid PTE and loads
  the referenced data if it is present in the Level 1 Data Cache, as if
  the page referenced by the address bits in the PTE was still present
  and accessible.

  While this is a purely speculative mechanism and the instruction will
  raise a page fault when it is retired eventually, the pure act of
  loading the data and making it available to other speculative
  instructions opens up the opportunity for side channel attacks to
  unprivileged malicious code, similar to the Meltdown attack.

  While Meltdown breaks the user space to kernel space protection, L1TF
  allows to attack any physical memory address in the system and the
  attack works across all protection domains. It allows an attack of SGX
  and also works from inside virtual machines because the speculation
  bypasses the extended page table (EPT) protection mechanism.

  The assoicated CVEs are: CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, CVE-2018-3646

  The mitigations provided by this pull request include:

   - Host side protection by inverting the upper address bits of a non
     present page table entry so the entry points to uncacheable memory.

   - Hypervisor protection by flushing L1 Data Cache on VMENTER.

   - SMT (HyperThreading) control knobs, which allow to 'turn off' SMT
     by offlining the sibling CPU threads. The knobs are available on
     the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs

   - Control knobs for the hypervisor mitigation, related to L1D flush
     and SMT control. The knobs are available on the kernel command line
     and at runtime via sysfs

   - Extensive documentation about L1TF including various degrees of
     mitigations.

  Thanks to all people who have contributed to this in various ways -
  patches, review, testing, backporting - and the fruitful, sometimes
  heated, but at the end constructive discussions.

  There is work in progress to provide other forms of mitigations, which
  might be less horrible performance wise for a particular kind of
  workloads, but this is not yet ready for consumption due to their
  complexity and limitations"

<title>x86/mm/pti: Move user W+X check into pti_finalize()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d878efce73fe86db34ddb2013260adf571a701a7</id>
<content type='text'>
The user page-table gets the updated kernel mappings in pti_finalize(),
which runs after the RO+X permissions got applied to the kernel page-table
in mark_readonly().

But with CONFIG_DEBUG_WX enabled, the user page-table is already checked in
mark_readonly() for insecure mappings.  This causes false-positive
warnings, because the user page-table did not get the updated mappings yet.

Move the W+X check for the user page-table into pti_finalize() after it
updated all required mappings.

<content type='text'>
Some cases in THP like:
  - MADV_FREE
  - mprotect
  - split

mark the PMD non present for temporarily to prevent races. The window for
an L1TF attack in these contexts is very small, but it wants to be fixed
for correctness sake.

Use the proper low level functions for pmd/pud_mknotpresent() to address
this.
