[4.4] x86/pti/efi: broken conversion from efi to kernel page table

From: Pavel Tatashin
Date: Thu Jan 11 2018 - 14:09:42 EST


In entry_64.S we have code like this:

/* Unconditionally use kernel CR3 for do_nmi() */
/* %rax is saved above, so OK to clobber here */
ALTERNATIVE "jmp 2f", "movq %cr3, %rax", X86_FEATURE_KAISER
/* If PCID enabled, NOFLUSH now and NOFLUSH on return */
ALTERNATIVE "", "bts $63, %rax", X86_FEATURE_PCID
pushq %rax
/* mask off "user" bit of pgd address and 12 PCID bits: */
andq $(~(X86_CR3_PCID_ASID_MASK | KAISER_SHADOW_PGD_OFFSET)), %rax
movq %rax, %cr3
2:

/* paranoidentry do_nmi, 0; without TRACE_IRQS_OFF */
call do_nmi

With this instruction:
andq $(~(X86_CR3_PCID_ASID_MASK | KAISER_SHADOW_PGD_OFFSET)), %rax

We unconditionally switch from whatever our CR3 was to kernel page table.
But, in arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_64.c We temporarily set a different page
table, that does not have the kernel page table with 0x1000 offset from it.

Look in efi_thunk() and efi_thunk_set_virtual_address_map().

So, while CR3 points to the other page table, we get an NMI interrupt,
and clear 0x1000 from CR3, resulting in a bogus CR3 if the 0x1000 bit was
set.

The efi page table comes from realmode/rm/trampoline_64.S:

arch/x86/realmode/rm/trampoline_64.S

141 .bss
142 .balign PAGE_SIZE
143 GLOBAL(trampoline_pgd) .space PAGE_SIZE

Notice: alignment is PAGE_SIZE, so after applying KAISER_SHADOW_PGD_OFFSET
which equal to PAGE_SIZE, we can get a different page table.

But, even if we fix alignment, here the trampoline binary is later copied
into dynamically allocated memory in reserve_real_mode(), so we need to
fix that place as well.

Fixes: 8a43ddfb93a0 ("KAISER: Kernel Address Isolation")
