Denys, I'll leave it to you to re-sumbit again..
I suggest this reworded commit message:
powerpc: Do not make the entire heap executable
gcc has a configure option to generate ELF files that are W^X:
--enable-secureplt
However the PPC32 kernel is hardwired to add PROT_EXEC to the heap and
BSS segments, totally defeating this security protection.
This is done because the common ELF loader does not properly respect
the load header permissions when mapping a region that is not file
backed.
For example, non-secure PPC creates these segments:
[21] .data PROGBITS 10061254 051254 001868 00 WA 0 0 4
[22] .got PROGBITS 10062abc 052abc 000014 04 WAX 0 0 4
[23] .sdata PROGBITS 10062ad0 052ad0 000058 00 WA 0 0 4
[24] .sbss NOBITS 10062b28 052b28 000040 00 WA 0 0 8
[25] .plt NOBITS 10062b68 052b28 000d38 00 WAX 0 0 4
[26] .bss NOBITS 100638a0 052b28 006424 00 WA 0 0 16
Which results in an ELF load header covering those segments:
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz Flg Align
LOAD 0x051160 0x10061160 0x10061160 0x019c8 0x08b64 RWE 0x10000
If we just remove the PROT_EXEC PPC32 hack then the kernel will do
something like:
10061000-10063000 rwxp 00051000 07:00 3208784 /app/bin/busybox.dynamic
10063000-1006a000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0
104a6000-104c7000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap]
The 2nd mapping is the anonymous 0 filled pages requested by FileSiz <
MemSiz, but it is not executable. This causes instant crashes of
normal PPC32 ELFs as their PLT and GOTs must be executable.
This patches fixes the above bug in the ELF loader and removes the
forced PROT_EXEC from PPC32.
The improvement is seen in /proc/PID/maps. After the patch a normal
ELF looks like:
10061000-10063000 rwxp 00051000 07:00 3208784 /app/bin/busybox.dynamic
10063000-1006a000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0
104a6000-104c7000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap]
while a secure-PLT ELF looks like:
10050000-10052000 rw-p 00050000 07:00 3208780 /app/bin/busybox.dynamic
10052000-10059000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0
10740000-10761000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap]
Critically, with this patch applied all of the maps within a
secure-plt ELF are W^X.
While before this patch we see undeseriable W&X.
normal ELF:
10061000-10063000 rwxp 00051000 07:00 3208784 /app/bin/busybox.dynamic
