Subject: [PATCH v15 2/5] random: add vgetrandom_alloc() syscall

The vDSO getrandom() works over an opaque per-thread state of an
unexported size, which must be marked VM_WIPEONFORK, VM_DONTDUMP,
VM_NORESERVE, and VM_DROPPABLE for proper operation. Over time, the
nuances of these allocations may change or grow or even differ based on
architectural features.

The syscall has the signature:

  void *vgetrandom_alloc(unsigned int *num, unsigned int *size_per_each,
                         unsigned long addr, unsigned int flags);

This takes a hinted number of opaque states in `num`, and returns a
pointer to an array of opaque states, the number actually allocated back
in `num`, and the size in bytes of each one in `size_per_each`, enabling
a libc to slice up the returned array into a state per each thread,
while ensuring that no single state straddles a page boundary. (The
`flags` and `addr` arguments, as well as the `*size_per_each` input
value, are reserved for the future and are forced to be zero zero for
now.)

Libc is expected to allocate a chunk of these on first use, and then
dole them out to threads as they're created, allocating more when
needed. The returned address of the first state may be passed to
munmap(2) with a length of `num * size_per_each`, in order to deallocate
the memory.

We very intentionally do *not* leave state allocation for vDSO
getrandom() up to userspace itself, but rather provide this new syscall
for such allocations. vDSO getrandom() must not store its state in just
any old memory address, but rather just ones that the kernel specially
allocates for it, leaving the particularities of those allocations up to
the kernel.

The allocation of states is intended to be integrated into libc's thread
management. As an illustrative example, the following code might be used
to do the same outside of libc. Though, vgetrandom_alloc() is not
expected to be exposed outside of libc, and the pthread usage here is
expected to be elided into libc internals. This allocation scheme is
very naive and does not shrink; other implementations may choose to be
more complex.

  static void *vgetrandom_alloc(unsigned int *num, unsigned int *size_per_each)
  {
    *size_per_each = 0; /* Must be zero on input. */
    return (void *)syscall(__NR_vgetrandom_alloc, &num, &size_per_each,
                           0 /* reserved @addr */, 0 /* reserved @flags */);
  }

  static struct {
    pthread_mutex_t lock;
    void **states;
    size_t len, cap;
  } grnd_allocator = {
    .lock = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER
  };

  static void *vgetrandom_get_state(void)
  {
    void *state = NULL;

    pthread_mutex_lock(&grnd_allocator.lock);
    if (!grnd_allocator.len) {
      size_t new_cap;
      size_t page_size = getpagesize();
      unsigned int num = sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN); /* Could be arbitrary, just a hint. */
      unsigned int size_per_each;
      void *new_block = vgetrandom_alloc(&num, &size_per_each);
      void *new_states;

      if (new_block == MAP_FAILED)
        goto out;
      new_cap = grnd_allocator.cap + num;
      new_states = reallocarray(grnd_allocator.states, new_cap, sizeof(*grnd_allocator.states));
      if (!new_states) {
        munmap(new_block, num * size_per_each);
        goto out;
      }
      grnd_allocator.cap = new_cap;
      grnd_allocator.states = new_states;

      for (size_t i = 0; i < num; ++i) {
        grnd_allocator.states[i] = new_block;
        if (((uintptr_t)new_block & (page_size - 1)) + size_per_each > page_size)
          new_block = (void *)(((uintptr_t)new_block + page_size) & (page_size - 1));
        else
          new_block += size_per_each;
      }
      grnd_allocator.len = num;
    }
    state = grnd_allocator.states[--grnd_allocator.len];

  out:
    pthread_mutex_unlock(&grnd_allocator.lock);
    return state;
  }

  static void vgetrandom_put_state(void *state)
  {
    if (!state)
      return;
    pthread_mutex_lock(&grnd_allocator.lock);
    grnd_allocator.states[grnd_allocator.len++] = state;
    pthread_mutex_unlock(&grnd_allocator.lock);
  }

+ *
+ * @num:	   On input, a pointer to a suggested hint of how many states to
+ * 		   allocate, and on return the number of states actually allocated.
+ *

+ * @flags:	   Reserved, must be zero.
+ *
+ * The getrandom() vDSO function in userspace requires an opaque state, which
+ * this function allocates by mapping a certain number of special pages into
+ * the calling process. It takes a hint as to the number of opaque states
+ * desired, and provides the caller with the number of opaque states actually
+ * allocated, the size of each one in bytes, and the address of the first
+ * state, which may be split up into @num states of @size_per_each bytes each,
+ * by adding @size_per_each to the returned first state @num times, while
+ * ensuring that no single state straddles a page boundary.
+ *
+ * Returns the address of the first state in the allocation on success, or a

+ * The returned address of the first state may be passed to munmap(2) with a

+ *   - Splitting up the states in intervals of @size_per_each, no more than
+ *     @num times from the first state, while ensuring that no single state
+ *     straddles a page boundary.
+ *   - Passing a state to the getrandom() vDSO function's @opaque_state
+ *     parameter, but not passing the same state at the same time to two such
+ *     calls.
+ *   - Passing the first state and the total length to munmap(2), as described
+ *     above.
+ * All other uses are undefined behavior, which is subject to change or removal.
