Subject: [RFC v5 00/38] powerpc: Memory Protection Keys
Memory protection keys enable applications to protect its
address space from inadvertent access or corruption from
itself.
The overall idea:
A process allocates a key and associates it with
an address range within its address space.
The process then can dynamically set read/write
permissions on the key without involving the
kernel. Any code that violates the permissions
of the address space; as defined by its associated
key, will receive a segmentation fault.
This patch series enables the feature on PPC64 HPTE
platform.
ISA3.0 section 5.7.13 describes the detailed specifications.
Testing:
This patch series has passed all the protection key
tests available in the selftests directory.
The tests are updated to work on both x86 and powerpc.
version v5:
(1) reverted back to the old design -- store the
key in the pte, instead of bypassing it.
The v4 design slowed down the hash page path.
(2) detects key violation when kernel is told to
access user pages.
(3) further refined the patches into smaller consumable
units
(4) page faults handlers captures the faulting key
from the pte instead of the vma. This closes a
race between where the key update in the vma and
a key fault caused cause by the key programmed
in the pte.
(5) a key created with access-denied should
also set it up to deny write. Fixed it.
(6) protection-key number is displayed in smaps
the x86 way.
version v4:
(1) patches no more depend on the pte bits to program
the hpte -- comment by Balbir
(2) documentation updates
(3) fixed a bug in the selftest.
(4) unlike x86, powerpc lets signal handler change key
permission bits; the change will persist across
signal handler boundaries. Earlier we allowed
the signal handler to modify a field in the siginfo
structure which would than be used by the kernel
to program the key protection register (AMR)
-- resolves a issue raised by Ben.
"Calls to sys_swapcontext with a made-up context
will end up with a crap AMR if done by code who
didn't know about that register".
(5) these changes enable protection keys on 4k-page
kernel aswell.
version v3:
(1) split the patches into smaller consumable
patches.
(2) added the ability to disable execute permission
on a key at creation.
(3) rename calc_pte_to_hpte_pkey_bits() to
pte_to_hpte_pkey_bits() -- suggested by Anshuman
(4) some code optimization and clarity in
do_page_fault()
(5) A bug fix while invalidating a hpte slot in
__hash_page_4K() -- noticed by Aneesh
version v2:
(1) documentation and selftest added
(2) fixed a bug in 4k hpte backed 64k pte where page
invalidation was not done correctly, and
initialization of second-part-of-the-pte was not
done correctly if the pte was not yet Hashed
with a hpte. Reported by Aneesh.
(3) Fixed ABI breakage caused in siginfo structure.
Reported by Anshuman.
