2020-12-01scs: switch to vmapped shadow stacksSami Tolvanen
The kernel currently uses kmem_cache to allocate shadow call stacks, which means an overflows may not be immediately detected and can potentially result in another task's shadow stack to be overwritten. This change switches SCS to use virtually mapped shadow stacks for tasks, which increases shadow stack size to a full page and provides more robust overflow detection, similarly to VMAP_STACK.

2020-08-07mm: memcontrol: account kernel stack per nodeShakeel Butt
Currently the kernel stack is being accounted per-zone. There is no need to do that. In addition due to being per-zone, memcg has to keep a separate MEMCG_KERNEL_STACK_KB. Make the stat per-node and deprecate MEMCG_KERNEL_STACK_KB as memcg_stat_item is an extension of node_stat_item. In addition localize the kernel stack stats updates to account_kernel_stack().

2020-06-04scs: Report SCS usage in bytes rather than number of entriesWill Deacon
Fix the SCS debug usage check so that we report the number of bytes used, rather than the number of entries.

2020-05-18scs: Remove references to asm/scs.h from core codeWill Deacon
asm/scs.h is no longer needed by the core code, so remove a redundant header inclusion and update the stale Kconfig text. Tested-by: Sami Tolvanen <samitolvanen@google.com> Reviewed-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org>
2020-05-18scs: Move scs_overflow_check() out of architecture codeWill Deacon
There is nothing architecture-specific about scs_overflow_check() as it's just a trivial wrapper around scs_corrupted(). For parity with task_stack_end_corrupted(), rename scs_corrupted() to task_scs_end_corrupted() and call it from schedule_debug() when CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK_is enabled, which better reflects its purpose as a debug feature to catch inadvertent overflow of the SCS. Finally, remove the unused scs_overflow_check() function entirely. This has absolutely no impact on architectures that do not support SCS (currently arm64 only).

2020-05-18scs: Move accounting into alloc/free functionsWill Deacon
There's no need to perform the shadow stack page accounting independently of the lifetime of the underlying allocation, so call the accounting code from the {alloc,free}() functions and simplify the code in the process.

2020-05-18arm64: scs: Store absolute SCS stack pointer value in thread_infoWill Deacon
Storing the SCS information in thread_info as a {base,offset} pair introduces an additional load instruction on the ret-to-user path, since the SCS stack pointer in x18 has to be converted back to an offset by subtracting the base. Replace the offset with the absolute SCS stack pointer value instead and avoid the redundant load.

2020-05-15scs: Add support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack (SCS)Sami Tolvanen
This change adds generic support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack, which uses a shadow stack to protect return addresses from being overwritten by an attacker. Details are available here: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ShadowCallStack.html Note that security guarantees in the kernel differ from the ones documented for user space. The kernel must store addresses of shadow stacks in memory, which means an attacker capable reading and writing arbitrary memory may be able to locate them and hijack control flow by modifying the stacks.
