* x86/mm/KASLR: Propagate KASLR status to kernel properBorislav Petkov2015-04-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit: e2b32e678513 ("x86, kaslr: randomize module base load address") made module base address randomization unconditional and didn't regard disabled KKASLR due to CONFIG_HIBERNATION and command line option "nokaslr". For more info see (now reverted) commit: f47233c2d34f ("x86/mm/ASLR: Propagate base load address calculation") In order to propagate KASLR status to kernel proper, we need a single bit in boot_params.hdr.loadflags and we've chosen bit 1 thus leaving the top-down allocated bits for bits supposed to be used by the bootloader.

* Revert "x86/mm/ASLR: Propagate base load address calculation"Borislav Petkov2015-03-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit: f47233c2d34f ("x86/mm/ASLR: Propagate base load address calculation") The main reason for the revert is that the new boot flag does not work at all currently, and in order to make this work, we need non-trivial changes to the x86 boot code which we didn't manage to get done in time for merging. And even if we did, they would've been too risky so instead of rushing things and break booting 4.1 on boxes left and right, we will be very strict and conservative and will take our time with this to fix and test it properly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit: e2b32e678513 ("x86, kaslr: randomize module base load address") makes the base address for module to be unconditionally randomized in case when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is defined and "nokaslr" option isn't present on the commandline. This is not consistent with how choose_kernel_location() decides whether it will randomize kernel load base. Namely, CONFIG_HIBERNATION disables kASLR (unless "kaslr" option is explicitly specified on kernel commandline), which makes the state space larger than what module loader is looking at. IOW CONFIG_HIBERNATION && CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is a valid config option, kASLR wouldn't be applied by default in that case, but module loader is not aware of that. Instead of fixing the logic in module.c, this patch takes more generic aproach. It introduces a new bootparam setup data_type SETUP_KASLR and uses that to pass the information whether kaslr has been applied during kernel decompression, and sets a global 'kaslr_enabled' variable accordingly, so that any kernel code (module loading, livepatching, ...) can make decisions based on its value. x86 module loader is converted to make use of this flag.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The KASLR location-choosing logic needs to avoid the setup_data list memory areas as well. Without this, it would be possible to have the ASLR position stomp on the memory, ultimately causing the boot to fail.

* x86, kaslr: Add a circular multiply for better bit diffusionH. Peter Anvin2013-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | If we don't have RDRAND (in which case nothing else *should* matter), most sources have a highly biased entropy distribution. Use a circular multiply to diffuse the entropic bits. A circular multiply is a good operation for this: it is cheap on standard hardware and because it is symmetric (unlike an ordinary multiply) it doesn't introduce its own bias.

* x86, kaslr: Mix entropy sources together as neededKees Cook2013-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Depending on availability, mix the RDRAND and RDTSC entropy together with XOR. Only when neither is available should the i8254 be used. Update the Kconfig documentation to reflect this. Additionally, since bits used for entropy is masked elsewhere, drop the needless masking in the get_random_long(). Similarly, use the entire TSC, not just the low 32 bits. Finally, to improve the starting entropy, do a simple hashing of a build-time versions string and the boot-time boot_params structure for some additional level of unpredictability.

* x86, kaslr: Return location from decompress_kernelKees Cook2013-10-13
This allows decompress_kernel to return a new location for the kernel to be relocated to. Additionally, enforces CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START as the minimum relocation position when building with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE. With CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE set, the choose_kernel_location routine will select a new location to decompress the kernel, though here it is presently a no-op. The kernel command line option "nokaslr" is introduced to bypass these routines.
