[PATCH v7 12/26] x86/fpu/xstate: Use feature disable (XFD) to protect dynamic user state

From: Chang S. Bae
Date: Sat Jul 10 2021 - 09:09:34 EST


Intel's Extended Feature Disable (XFD) feature is an extension of the XSAVE
architecture. XFD allows the kernel to enable a feature state in XCR0 and
to receive a #NM trap when a task uses instructions accessing that state.
In this way, Linux can defer allocating the large XSAVE buffer until tasks
need it.

XFD introduces two MSRs: IA32_XFD to enable/disable the feature and
IA32_XFD_ERR to assist the #NM trap handler. Both use the same
xstate-component bitmap format, used by XCR0.

Use this hardware capability to find the right time to expand the XSTATE
buffer. The #NM handler induces the buffer expansion.

Introduce helper functions:
xfd_write() - write IA32_XFD MSR
xfd_read() - read IA32_XFD MSR
xfd_switch() - switch IA32_XFD MSR
xfd_capable() - indicate XFD-capable xfeatures

Changes from v6:
* Update the #NM handler a little bit.
* Clean up the code comment.

Changes from v5:
* Excluded the access request check here and included the buffer allocation
again in #NM handler. The access request will be dealt in next patch.
* Updated the title. (Dave Hansen)
* Updated the code comment.

Changes from v4:
* Changed to use XFD to support the access request policy. Updated #NM
handler to raise a signal instead of buffer allocation.
* Decoupled XFD from the use of XSAVE compacted format.
* Updated helper functions.
* Updated function descriptions in a proper format.
* Updated some code comments.

Changes from v3:
* Removed 'no functional change' in the changelog. (Borislav Petkov)

Changes from v2:
* Changed to enable XFD only when the compacted format is used.
* Updated the changelog with task->fpu removed. (Borislav Petkov)

Changes from v1:
* Inlined the XFD-induced #NM handling code (Andy Lutomirski)
