[RFC PATCH v2 4/4] x86/vdso: Add __vdso_sgx_enter_enclave() to wrap SGX enclave transitions
From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Thu Dec 06 2018 - 17:19:38 EST
Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX) SGX introduces a new CPL3-only
enclave mode that runs as a sort of black box shared object that is
hosted by an untrusted normal CPL3 process.
Enclave transitions have semantics that are a lovely blend of SYCALL,
SYSRET and VM-Exit. In a non-faulting scenario, entering and exiting
an enclave can only be done through SGX-specific instructions, EENTER
and EEXIT respectively. EENTER+EEXIT is analogous to SYSCALL+SYSRET,
e.g. EENTER/SYSCALL load RCX with the next RIP and EEXIT/SYSRET load
RIP from R{B,C}X.
But in a faulting/interrupting scenario, enclave transitions act more
like VM-Exit and VMRESUME. Maintaining the black box nature of the
enclave means that hardware must automatically switch CPU context when
an Asynchronous Exiting Event (AEE) occurs, an AEE being any interrupt
or exception (exceptions are AEEs because asynchronous in this context
is relative to the enclave and not CPU execution, e.g. the enclave
doesn't get an opportunity to save/fuzz CPU state).
Like VM-Exits, all AEEs jump to a common location, referred to as the
Asynchronous Exiting Point (AEP). The AEP is specified at enclave entry
via register passed to EENTER/ERESUME, similar to how the hypervisor
specifies the VM-Exit point (via VMCS.HOST_RIP at VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME).
Resuming the enclave/VM after the exiting event is handled is done via
ERESUME/VMRESUME respectively. In SGX, AEEs that are handled by the
kernel, e.g. INTR, NMI and most page faults, IRET will journey back to
the AEP which then ERESUMEs th enclave.
Enclaves also behave a bit like VMs in the sense that they can generate
exceptions as part of their normal operation that for all intents and
purposes need to handled in the enclave/VM. However, unlike VMX, SGX
doesn't allow the host to modify its guest's, a.k.a. enclave's, state,
as doing so would circumvent the enclave's security. So to handle an
exception, the enclave must first be re-entered through the normal
EENTER flow (SYSCALL/SYSRET behavior), and then resumed via ERESUME
(VMRESUME behavior) after the source of the exception is resolved.
All of the above is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to running
an enclave. But, SGX was designed in such a way that the host process
can utilize a library to build, launch and run an enclave. This is
roughly analogous to how e.g. libc implementations are used by most
applications so that the application can focus on its business logic.
The big gotcha is that because enclaves can generate *and* handle
exceptions, any SGX library must be prepared to handle nearly any
exception at any time (well, any time a thread is executing in an
enclave). In Linux, this means the SGX library must register a
signal handler in order to intercept relevant exceptions and forward
them to the enclave (or in some cases, take action on behalf of the
enclave). Unfortunately, Linux's signal mechanism doesn't mesh well
with libraries, e.g. signal handlers are process wide, are difficult
to chain, etc... This becomes particularly nasty when using multiple
levels of libraries that register signal handlers, e.g. running an
enclave via cgo inside of the Go runtime.
In comes vDSO to save the day. Now that vDSO can fixup exceptions,
add a function, __vdso_sgx_enter_enclave(), to wrap enclave transitions
and intercept any exceptions that occur when running the enclave.
__vdso_sgx_enter_enclave() accepts four parameters:
- A pointer to a Thread Control Structure (TCS). A TCS is a page
within the enclave that defines/tracks the context of an enclave
thread.
- An opaque pointer passed to the enclave via RDI, e.g. to marshal
data into the enclave.
- A pointer to a struct sgx_enclave_exit_info that is used to relay
exit/fault information back to the caller. The primary variable
in the exit info is the ENCLU leaf at the time of exit, which can
be queried to determine whether the enclave exited cleanly (EEXIT),
or took an exception (EENTER or ERESUME).
The exact leaf is captured, instead of e.g. a fault flag, so that
the caller can identity whether a fault occurred in the enclave or
on EENTER. A fault on EENTER generally means the enclave has died
and needs to be restarted.
On a clean EEXIT, registers RDI, RSI and RDX are captured as-is,
e.g. to pass data out of the enclave. On a fault that is reported
to the caller, the exit info is stuffed (by way of the vDSO fixup
handler) with the trapnr, error_code and address. Not all enclave
exits are reported to the caller, e.g. interrupts and faults that
are handled by the kernel do not trigger fixup and IRET back to
ENCLU[ERESUME], i.e. unconditionally resume the enclave.
- An optional exit handler that, when defined, is invoked prior to
returning. The callback provides the enclave's untrusted runtime an
opportunity to resolve a fault or service a remote procedure call
without losing its stack context.
In addition to allowing the runtime to do silly shenanigans with its
stack, e.g. pushing data onto the stack from within the enclave, the
handler approach preserves the full call stack for debugging purposes.
For example, to accept a new EPC page into the enclave, an enclave
with a single TCS must re-EENTER the enclave using the same TCS to
EACCEPT the new page prior to executing ERESUME to restart at the
fault context. The handler approach allows reentry without undoing
the original call stack, i.e. preserves the view of the original
interrupted call.
Note that this effectively requires userspace to implement an exit
handler if they want to support correctable enclave faults, as there
is no other way to request ERESUME.
