[PATCH v4 33/39] x86: Prevent 32 bit operations for 64 bit shstk tasks
From: Rick Edgecombe
Date: Fri Dec 02 2022 - 19:43:23 EST
Shadow stack is only supported in 64 bit kernels. Since 64 bit kernels can
run 32 bit applications using 32 bit emulation it would still be possible
to support shadow stack for 32 bit applications. The challenge for this
would be the shadow stack sigframe format uses noncannonical bits in the
shadow stack frame, for which there are none in 32 bit. This means the 32
bit shadow stack sigframe would need either an alternate unknown solution
or to not support any features that expand the shadow stack sigframe (alt
shadow stack). It would add complexity to separate out these future
features between the ABIs.
But shadow stack support for 32 bit would not likely be very useful. 32
bit emulation is mostly to support old apps, which should not have enabled
shadow stack. So this series disables support for 32 bit apps by blocking
the arch_prctl()s when made via a 32 bit syscall.
But PeterZ points out (see link) that some applications will utilize a 32
bit segment to run 32 bit code inside a 64 bit process. WINE does this to
run 32 bit Windows apps. However, doing this with shadow stack is not
likely to happen in practice since Windows does not support shadow stack
for 32 bit applications either.
Any preexisting applications that are marked with shadow stack are unlikely
to make it to the point where they can exercise any 32 bit signal
interactions anyway, because the HW requires that the shadow stack pointer
register needs to be in the 32 bit range in this case, but shadow stack
would have been allocated in the 64 bit address space. The shadow stack
enabled app would #GP when doing the long jump into the 32 bit segment.
So since 32 bit is not easy to support, and there are likely not many
users. More cleanly don't support 32 bit signals in a 64 bit address
space by not allowing 32 bit ABI signal handlers when shadow stack is
enabled. Do this by clearing any 32 bit ABI signal handlers when shadow
stack is enabled, and disallow any further 32 bit ABI signal handlers.
Also, return an error code for the clone operations when in a 32 bit
syscall.
