[PATCH 19/23] xfs: define usercopy region in xfs_inode slab cache

From: Kees Cook
Date: Mon Jun 19 2017 - 19:44:13 EST


From: David Windsor <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

XFS inline inode data, stored in struct xfs_inode_t.i_df.if_u2.if_inline_data
and therefore contained in the xfs_inode slab cache, needs to be copied
to/from userspace.

In support of usercopy hardening, this patch defines a region in
the xfs_inode slab cache in which userspace copy operations
are allowed.

This region is known as the slab cache's usercopy region. Slab
caches can now check that each copy operation involving cache-managed
memory falls entirely within the slab's usercopy region.

This patch is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's PAX_USERCOPY
whitelisting code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my
understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are
mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.
