[PATCH] x86: remove arbitrary instruction size limit in instruction decoder
From: Dave Hansen
Date: Wed Nov 12 2014 - 17:53:59 EST
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The current x86 instruction decoder steps along through the
instruction stream but always ensures that it never steps farther
than the largest possible instruction size (MAX_INSN_SIZE).
The MPX code is now going to be doing some decoding of userspace
instructions. We copy those from userspace in to the kernel and
they're obviously completely untrusted coming from userspace. In
addition to the constraint that instructions can only be so long,
we also have to be aware of how long the buffer is that came in
from userspace. This _looks_ to be similar to what the perf and
kprobes is doing, but it's unclear to me whether they are
affected.
We shouldn't simply error out when we get short copy_from_user*()
results from userspace (like intel_pmu_pebs_fixup_ip() does
currently). It is perfectly valid to be executing an instruction
within MAX_INSN_SIZE bytes of an unreadable page. We should be
able to gracefully handle short reads in those cases.
This adds support to the decoder to record how long the buffer
being decoded is and to refuse to "validate" the instruction if
we would have gone over the end of the buffer to decode it.
The kprobes code probably needs to be looked at here a bit more
carefully. This patch still respects the MAX_INSN_SIZE limit
there but the kprobes code does look like it might be able to
be a bit more strict than it currently is.
Note: the v10 version of the MPX patches I just posted depends
on this patch.
