From f6242cac10427c546271050b31c891a078e490cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marc Zyngier Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2015 16:30:21 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Fix text patching logic when using fixmap Patch 2f896d586610 ("arm64: use fixmap for text patching") changed the way we patch the kernel text, using a fixmap when the kernel or modules are flagged as read only. Unfortunately, a flaw in the logic makes it fall over when patching modules without CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX enabled: [...] [ 32.032636] Call trace: [ 32.032716] [] __copy_to_user+0x2c/0x60 [ 32.032837] [] __aarch64_insn_write+0x94/0xf8 [ 32.033027] [] aarch64_insn_patch_text_nosync+0x18/0x58 [ 32.033200] [] ftrace_modify_code+0x58/0x84 [ 32.033363] [] ftrace_make_nop+0x3c/0x58 [ 32.033532] [] ftrace_process_locs+0x3d0/0x5c8 [ 32.033709] [] ftrace_module_init+0x28/0x34 [ 32.033882] [] load_module+0xbb8/0xfc4 [ 32.034044] [] SyS_finit_module+0x94/0xc4 [...] This is triggered by the use of virt_to_page() on a module address, which ends to pointing to Nowhereland if you're lucky, or corrupt your precious data if not. This patch fixes the logic by mimicking what is done on arm: - If we're patching a module and CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX is set, use vmalloc_to_page(). - If we're patching the kernel and CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set, use virt_to_page(). - Otherwise, use the provided address, as we can write to it directly. Tested on 4.0-rc1 as a KVM guest. Reported-by: Richard W.M. Jones Reviewed-by: Kees Cook Acked-by: Mark Rutland Acked-by: Laura Abbott Tested-by: Richard W.M.
