Today, STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is based on the use of regular pages to map kernel pages. On Book3s 32, it has three consequences: - Using pages instead of BAT for mapping kernel linear memory severely impacts performance. - Exec protection is not effective because no-execute cannot be set at page level (except on 603 which doesn't have hash tables) - Write protection is not effective because PP bits do not provide RO mode for kernel-only pages (except on 603 which handles it in software via PAGE_DIRTY) On the 603+, we have: - Independent IBAT and DBAT allowing limitation of exec parts. - NX bit can be set in segment registers to forbit execution on memory mapped by pages. - RO mode on DBATs even for kernel-only blocks. On the 601, there is nothing much we can do other than warn the user about it, because: - BATs are common to instructions and data. - BAT do not provide RO mode for kernel-only blocks. - segment registers don't have the NX bit. In order to use IBAT for exec protection, this patch: - Aligns _etext to BAT block sizes (128kb) - Set NX bit in kernel segment register (Except on vmalloc area when CONFIG_MODULES is selected) - Maps kernel text with IBATs. In order to use DBAT for exec protection, this patch: - Aligns RW DATA to BAT block sizes (4M) - Maps kernel RO area with write prohibited DBATs - Maps remaining memory with remaining DBATs Here is what we get with this patch on a 832x when activating STRICT_KERNEL_RWX: Symbols: c0000000 T _stext c0680000 R __start_rodata c0680000 R _etext c0800000 T __init_begin c0800000 T _sinittext ~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/block_address_translation ---[ Instruction Block Address Translation ]--- 0: 0xc0000000-0xc03fffff 0x00000000 Kernel EXEC coherent 1: 0xc0400000-0xc05fffff 0x00400000 Kernel EXEC coherent 2: 0xc0600000-0xc067ffff 0x00600000 Kernel EXEC coherent 3: - 4: - 5: - 6: - 7: - ---[ Data Block Address Translation ]--- 0: 0xc0000000-0xc07fffff 0x00000000 Kernel RO coherent 1: 0xc0800000-0xc0ffffff 0x00800000 Kernel RW coherent 2: 0xc1000000-0xc1ffffff 0x01000000 Kernel RW coherent 3: 0xc2000000-0xc3ffffff 0x02000000 Kernel RW coherent 4: 0xc4000000-0xc7ffffff 0x04000000 Kernel RW coherent 5: 0xc8000000-0xcfffffff 0x08000000 Kernel RW coherent 6: 0xd0000000-0xdfffffff 0x10000000 Kernel RW coherent 7: - ~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/segment_registers ---[ User Segments ]--- 0x00000000-0x0fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa085d0 0x10000000-0x1fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa086e1 0x20000000-0x2fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa087f2 0x30000000-0x3fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08903 0x40000000-0x4fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08a14 0x50000000-0x5fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08b25 0x60000000-0x6fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08c36 0x70000000-0x7fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08d47 0x80000000-0x8fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08e58 0x90000000-0x9fffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa08f69 0xa0000000-0xafffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa0907a 0xb0000000-0xbfffffff Kern key 1 User key 1 VSID 0xa0918b ---[ Kernel Segments ]--- 0xc0000000-0xcfffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000ccc 0xd0000000-0xdfffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000ddd 0xe0000000-0xefffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000eee 0xf0000000-0xffffffff Kern key 0 User key 1 No Exec VSID 0x000fff Aligning _etext to 128kb allows to map up to 32Mb text with 8 IBATs: 16Mb + 8Mb + 4Mb + 2Mb + 1Mb + 512kb + 256kb + 128kb (+ 128kb) = 32Mb (A 9th IBAT is unneeded as 32Mb would need only a single 32Mb block) Aligning data to 4M allows to map up to 512Mb data with 8 DBATs: 16Mb + 8Mb + 4Mb + 4Mb + 32Mb + 64Mb + 128Mb + 256Mb = 512Mb Because some processors only have 4 BATs and because some targets need DBATs for mapping other areas, the following patch will allow to modify _etext and data alignment.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
