From e1a58320a38dfa72be48a0f1a3a92273663ba6db Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Smalley Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2015 12:55:20 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] x86/mm: Warn on W^X mappings Warn on any residual W+X mappings after setting NX if DEBUG_WX is enabled. Introduce a separate X86_PTDUMP_CORE config that enables the code for dumping the page tables without enabling the debugfs interface, so that DEBUG_WX can be enabled without exposing the debugfs interface. Switch EFI_PGT_DUMP to using X86_PTDUMP_CORE so that it also does not require enabling the debugfs interface. On success it prints this to the kernel log: x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: passed, no W+X pages found. On failure it prints a warning and a count of the failed pages: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1 at arch/x86/mm/dump_pagetables.c:226 note_page+0x610/0x7b0() x86/mm: Found insecure W+X mapping at address ffffffff81755000/__stop___ex_table+0xfa8/0xabfa8 [...] Call Trace: [] dump_stack+0x44/0x55 [] warn_slowpath_common+0x82/0xc0 [] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x5c/0x80 [] ? note_page+0x5c9/0x7b0 [] note_page+0x610/0x7b0 [] ptdump_walk_pgd_level_core+0x259/0x3c0 [] ptdump_walk_pgd_level_checkwx+0x17/0x20 [] mark_rodata_ro+0xf5/0x100 [] ? rest_init+0x80/0x80 [] kernel_init+0x1d/0xe0 [] ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70 [] ? rest_init+0x80/0x80 ---[ end trace a1f23a1e42a2ac76 ]--- x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: FAILED, 171 W+X pages found.
