This patch kit implements clearing of all unused registers on kernel entries, including system calls and all exceptions and interrupt.

This doesn't fix any known issue, but will make it harder in general to exploit the kernel with speculation because it will be harder to get user controlled values into kernel code.

The patchkit is a bit more complicated because it attempts to clear unused argument registers, which requires on 64bit to know how many arguments each system call has. I used some scripting to derive the number of system calls from the SYSCALL_DEFINE*s and add it to the x86 system call tables.

Everything else is relatively simple and straight forward, and could be used independently.

I assume this mostly isn't 4.15 material, but should be considered for 4.16 Possibly some of the simpler patches could be considered for 4.15

Original patches were from Tim Chen, but changed significantly by AK.

PATCH 1/8 x86/entry/clearregs: Remove partial stack frame in fast system call

From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>

Remove the partial stack frame in the 64bit syscall fast path. In the next patch we want to clear the extra registers, which requires to always save all registers. So remove the partial stack frame in the syscall fast path and always save everything.

This actually simplifies the code because the ptregs stubs are not needed anymore.

You can't just blindly remove this. We need to make sure that syscalls that modify registers take the slow path exit, because they may change the registers to be incompatible with SYSRET.

You can't just blindly remove this. We need to make sure that syscalls that modify registers take the slow path exit, because they may change the registers to be incompatible with SYSRET.

That's a good point. I checked the ptregs calls:

iopl: should be fine, we will be restoring the correct IOPL through
SYSRET

clone/fork: fine too, the original return is fine and ret_from_fork
takes care of the child

execve et.al.: we will be leaking r11(rflags), rcx(orig return) into
the new process. but that seems acceptable.

rt_sigreturn: that's the only one who has problems. I added a new
TIF_FULL_RESTORE to force it into the slow path.

You can't just blindly remove this. We need to make sure that syscalls that modify registers take the slow path exit, because they may change the registers to be incompatible with SYSRET.

Quoted 8 lines

That's a good point. I checked the ptregs calls:

iopl: should be fine, we will be restoring the correct IOPL through
SYSRET
clone/fork: fine too, the original return is fine and ret_from_fork
takes care of the child
execve et.al.: we will be leaking r11(rflags), rcx(orig return) into
the new process. but that seems acceptable.

We still need to check if we are loading a 32-bit binary. That must return with IRET.

rt_sigreturn: that's the only one who has problems. I added a new
TIF_FULL_RESTORE to force it into the slow path.

Remove the partial stack frame in the 64bit syscall fast path. In the next patch we want to clear the extra registers, which requires to always save all registers. So remove the partial stack frame in the syscall fast path and always save everything.

This actually simplifies the code because the ptregs stubs are not needed anymore.

So your series removes the old declarative annotation and then will add a new TI flag to make it work again?

This whole thing seems to be at the wrong end of the cost benefit curve.

The flag is a lot simpler than the previous assembler mess.

I thought the general trend in entry* was to move assembler to C?

We already check TIF flags after the syscall on the fast path. Adding another bit to the mask costs nothing.

You can't just blindly remove this. We need to make sure that syscalls that modify registers take the slow path exit, because they may change the registers to be incompatible with SYSRET.

That's a good point. I checked the ptregs calls:

iopl: should be fine, we will be restoring the correct IOPL through
SYSRET

clone/fork: fine too, the original return is fine and ret_from_fork
takes care of the child

execve et.al.: we will be leaking r11(rflags), rcx(orig return) into
the new process. but that seems acceptable.

rt_sigreturn: that's the only one who has problems. I added a new
TIF_FULL_RESTORE to force it into the slow path.

So your series removes the old declarative annotation and then will add a new TI flag to make it work again?

This whole thing seems to be at the wrong end of the cost benefit curve.

We already check TIF flags after the syscall on the fast path. Adding another bit to the mask costs nothing.

What I mean is: this whole series is almost certainly a performance regression, it has no off switch, and is doesn't obviously solve any problem. It' didn't qualify as a so. And no one has benchmarked it. I think we should seriously consider just not applying it.

Well it's kernel hardening to guard against possible future speculation attacks. Linus discussed it here for example:

https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg1580667.html

For the on/off switch I can add a CONFIG to enable it, even though it seems somewhat silly.

For the on/off switch I can add a CONFIG to enable it, even though it seems somewhat silly.

I did some micro benchmarking now, sampling different real system calls.

For the entry code (entry to call) I get on average 62 cycles for the old code, vs 78 cycles with clear regs and full stack frame saving on Skylake.

So it's roughly ~20 cycles difference, if we include the restore.

I would conclude 20 cycles are not significant for a syscall, so there's not a lot of motivation to add a switch for less security.

Remove the partial stack frame in the 64bit syscall fast path. In the next patch we want to clear the extra registers, which requires to always save all registers. So remove the partial stack frame in the syscall fast path and always save everything.

This actually simplifies the code because the ptregs stubs are not needed anymore.

64bit always zero extends 32->64, and xorl is one byte shorter because it doesn't need a REX prefix.

PATCH 5/8 x86/entry/clearregs: Clear registers for 64bit exceptions/interrupts

In reply to Andi Kleen

From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>

Clear all registers on entering the 64bit kernel for exceptions and interrupts.

Since there are no arguments this is fairly simple.

If CLEAR_ALL_REGS does what it sounds like, then its overkill here.

I could get behind this patch in general, though. Interrupts are so slow the the overhead probably doesn't matter.

PATCH 6/8 x86/entry/clearregs: Add number of arguments to syscall tables

In reply to Andi Kleen

From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>

In order to sanitize the system call arguments properly we need to know the number of syscall arguments for each syscall. Add a new column to the 32bit and 64bit syscall tables to list the number of arguments.

Also fix the generation script to not confuse the number with a compat entry.

Generated with some scripting and quick review (but more eyeballs would be appreciated)

Re: [PATCH v1 6/8] x86/entry/clearregs: Add number of arguments to syscall tables

Quoted 11 lines · Andi Kleen

From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>

In order to sanitize the system call arguments properly we need to know the number of syscall arguments for each syscall. Add a new column to the 32bit and 64bit syscall tables to list the number of arguments.

Surely we can do this in the SYSCALL_DEFINE macros. Or at least statically check it.

Also, what attack are we protecting against anyway?

Possibly. The assembler would be much uglier as inline assembler though. And adding the number shouldn't be a big burden when adding a system call.

I don't know how to check statically.

Also, what attack are we protecting against anyway?

There's no specific attack here.

But the idea is to make it harder to inject values into the kernel to abuse with speculation.

Somehow parse out the SYSCALL_DEFINE() macros at build time and check the numbers. Or munge the number into the SyS_ wrapper so we'd have SyS0_fork but SyS3_read.

I think a bit stronger justification would be good here.

PATCH 7/8 x86/entry/clearregs: Add 64bit stubs to clear unused arguments regs

In reply to Andi Kleen

From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>

The main system call code doesn't know how many arguments each system call has. So generate stubs that do the clearing.

Set up macros to generate stubs to clear unused argument registers for each system call in a 64bit kernel. This uses the syscall argument count from the syscall tables added earlier.

Each system call will run through its stub which then clears the registers not used for input arguments before jumping to the real system calls. It also clears RAX.

We have to move all the __SYSCALL_* users atomically. This is a larger patch, but it's difficult to do it git bisect safe otherwise.

Longer term this setup will also allow to get rid
of the system call table, as it will be possible
to compute the entry point with a simple shift.
So far this is not done here.

PATCH 8/8 x86/entry/clearregs: Clear registers for 32bit kernel

In reply to Andi Kleen

From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>

On a 32bit kernel clearing registers is much simpler than on 64bit. The arguments for syscalls are initially passed to a C function through the stack, so there's no need to figure out how many arguments to clear.

So we always clear all registers (except frame pointer) for all entry points.

Re: [PATCH v1 8/8] x86/entry/clearregs: Clear registers for 32bit kernel

Quoted 10 lines · Andi Kleen

On a 32bit kernel clearing registers is much simpler than on 64bit. The arguments for syscalls are initially passed to a C function through the stack, so there's no need to figure out how many arguments to clear.

Why are we even trying to improve the situation on 32-bit? Unless someone actually tries to implement PTI, this seems useless.

This patch kit implements clearing of all unused registers on kernel entries, including system calls and all exceptions and interrupt.

This doesn't fix any known issue, but will make it harder in general to exploit the kernel with speculation because it will be harder to get user controlled values into kernel code.

I don't like this at all. Once upon a time, Linux syscalls were supposed to be fast. Then we learned about the Meltdown screwup, so we mostly fixed it for real upstream and the distroa seriously half-arsed their own fixes [1]. This came with a big performance cost, but it can be turned off on non-busted hardware. So be it.

But now we're proposing to throw out the whole fast path because it might make it a bit harder to do the most obvious attack. Not very hard, mind you, but a little bit harder. And there's no off switch for less-leaky hardware. No thanks.

Meanwhile we're doing nothing whatsoever to mitigate cross-process attacks because we can't do anything about it short of turning IBRS on systemwide.

That's true, but modern CPUs are also a lot faster/wider than the K8 the fast path was originally designed for. A modern CPU can go through these instructions really fast with a very high IPC because they don't have dependencies or stalls.

So it shouldn't hurt very much.

Also in fact when the fast path was originally written the ABI still had a different caller/callee split which made it more better. Later on it already lost some of its benefits and was less of a win.

Well the off switch is a fast CPU.

When I rewrote the fast path, I did it on SNB. Not much has changed.

This patch should come with benchmarks (with PTI off).

And Intel needs to come up with real fixes for this stuff.
