x86/pti/32: Calculate the various PTI cpu_entry_area sizes correctly, make the CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES assert precise
When two recent commits that increased the size of the 'struct cpu_entry_area' were merged in -tip, the 32-bit defconfig build started failing on the following build time assert: ./include/linux/compiler.h:391:38: error: call to ‘__compiletime_assert_189’ declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES * PAGE_SIZE < CPU_ENTRY_AREA_MAP_SIZE arch/x86/mm/cpu_entry_area.c:189:2: note: in expansion of macro ‘BUILD_BUG_ON’ In function ‘setup_cpu_entry_area_ptes’, Which corresponds to the following build time assert: BUILD_BUG_ON(CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES * PAGE_SIZE < CPU_ENTRY_AREA_MAP_SIZE); The purpose of this assert is to sanity check the fixed-value definition of CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable_32_types.h: #define CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES (NR_CPUS * 41) The '41' is supposed to match sizeof(struct cpu_entry_area)/PAGE_SIZE, which value we didn't want to define in such a low level header, because it would cause dependency hell. Every time the size of cpu_entry_area is changed, we have to adjust CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES accordingly - and this assert is checking that constraint. But the assert is both imprecise and buggy, primarily because it doesn't include the single readonly IDT page that is mapped at CPU_ENTRY_AREA_BASE (which begins at a PMD boundary). This bug was hidden by the fact that by accident CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES is defined too large upstream (v5.4-rc8): #define CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES (NR_CPUS * 40) While 'struct cpu_entry_area' is 155648 bytes, or 38 pages. So we had two extra pages, which hid the bug. The following commit (not yet upstream) increased the size to 40 pages: x86/iopl: ("Restrict iopl() permission scope") ... but increased CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES only 41 - i.e. shortening the gap to just 1 extra page. Then another not-yet-upstream commit changed the size again: 880a98c33996: ("x86/cpu_entry_area: Add guard page for entry stack on 32bit") Which increased the cpu_entry_area size from 38 to 39 pages, but didn't change CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES (kept it at 40). This worked fine, because we still had a page left from the accidental 'reserve'. But when these two commits were merged into the same tree, the combined size of cpu_entry_area grew from 38 to 40 pages, while CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES finally caught up to 40 as well. Which is fine in terms of functionality, but the assert broke: BUILD_BUG_ON(CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES * PAGE_SIZE < CPU_ENTRY_AREA_MAP_SIZE); because CPU_ENTRY_AREA_MAP_SIZE is the total size of the area, which is 1 page larger due to the IDT page. To fix all this, change the assert to two precise asserts: BUILD_BUG_ON((CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES+1)*PAGE_SIZE != CPU_ENTRY_AREA_MAP_SIZE); BUILD_BUG_ON(CPU_ENTRY_AREA_TOTAL_SIZE != CPU_ENTRY_AREA_MAP_SIZE); This takes the IDT page into account, and also connects the size-based define of CPU_ENTRY_AREA_TOTAL_SIZE with the address-subtraction based define of CPU_ENTRY_AREA_MAP_SIZE. Also clean up some of the names which made it rather confusing: - 'CPU_ENTRY_AREA_TOT_SIZE' wasn't actually the 'total' size of the cpu-entry-area, but the per-cpu array size, so rename this to CPU_ENTRY_AREA_ARRAY_SIZE. - Introduce CPU_ENTRY_AREA_TOTAL_SIZE that _is_ the total mapping size, with the IDT included. - Add comments where '+1' denotes the IDT mapping - it wasn't obvious and took me about 3 hours to decode... Finally, because this particular commit is actually applied after this patch: 880a98c33996: ("x86/cpu_entry_area: Add guard page for entry stack on 32bit") Fix the CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES value from 40 pages to the correct 39 pages. All future commits that change cpu_entry_area will have to adjust this value precisely. As a side note, we should probably attempt to remove CPU_ENTRY_AREA_PAGES and derive its value directly from the structure, without causing header hell - but that is an adventure for another day! :-) Fixes: 880a98c33996: ("x86/cpu_entry_area: Add guard page for entry stack on 32bit") Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
