[PATCH v2] x86, kaslr: propagate base load address calculation
From: Jiri Kosina
Date: Fri Feb 13 2015 - 10:05:05 EST
Commit e2b32e678 ("x86, kaslr: randomize module base load address") makes
the base address for module to be unconditionally randomized in case when
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is defined and "nokaslr" option isn't present on the
commandline.
This is not consistent with how choose_kernel_location() decides whether
it will randomize kernel load base.
Namely, CONFIG_HIBERNATION disables kASLR (unless "kaslr" option is
explicitly specified on kernel commandline), which makes the state space
larger than what module loader is looking at. IOW CONFIG_HIBERNATION &&
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is a valid config option, kASLR wouldn't be applied
by default in that case, but module loader is not aware of that.
Instead of fixing the logic in module.c, this patch takes more generic
aproach. It introduces a new bootparam setup data_type SETUP_KASLR and
uses that to pass the information whether kaslr has been applied during
kernel decompression, and sets a global 'kaslr_enabled' variable
accordingly, so that any kernel code (module loading, livepatching, ...)
can make decisions based on its value.
x86 module loader is converted to make use of this flag.

v1 -> v2:
Originally I just calculated the fact on the fly from difference between
__START_KERNEL and &text, but Kees correctly pointed out that this doesn't
properly catch the case when the offset is randomized to zero. I don't see
a better option how to propagate the information from
choose_kernel_location() to the decompressed kernel than introducing new
bootparam setup type. Comments welcome.
