[PATCH V1 2/3] perf/x86/intel/bm.c: Add Intel Branch Monitoring support
From: Megha Dey
Date: Sat Nov 11 2017 - 16:05:39 EST
Currently, the cannonlake family of Intel processors support the
branch monitoring feature. Intel's Branch monitoring feature is trying
to utilize heuristics to detect the occurrence of an ROP (Return
Oriented Programming) attack.
A perf-based kernel driver has been used to monitor the occurrence of
one of the 6 branch monitoring events. There are 2 counters that each
can select between one of these events for evaluation over a specified
instruction window size (0 to 1023). For each counter, a threshold value
(0 to 127) can be configured to set a point at which ROP detection event
action is taken (determined by user-space). Each task can monitor
a maximum of 2 events at any given time.
Apart from window_size(global) and threshold(per-counter), various sysfs
entries are provided for the user to configure: guest_disable, lbr_freeze,
window_cnt_sel, cnt_and_mode (all global) and mispred_evt_cnt(per-counter).
For all events belonging to the same task, the global parameters are
shared.
Everytime a task is scheduled out, we save current window and count
associated with the event being monitored. When the task is scheduled
next, we start counting from previous count associated with this event.
Thus, a full context switch in this case is not necessary.
To monitor a user space application for ROP related events, perf command
line can be used as follows:
perf stat -e <name of event> <application to be monitored>
eg. For the following test program (test.c) and threshold = 100
(echo 100 > /sys/devices/intel_bm/threshold)
void func(void)
{
return;
}
void main(void)
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 128; i++) {
func();
}
return;
}
perf stat -e intel_bm/rets/ ./test
Performance counter stats for './test':
1 intel_bm/rets/
0.104705937 seconds time elapsed
perf returns the number of branch monitoring interrupts occurred during
the execution of the user-space application.
