randomize_kstack: Improve stack alignment codegen
The codgen for adding architecture-specific stack alignment to the
effective alloca() usage is somewhat inefficient and allows a bit to get
carried beyond the desired entropy range. This isn't really a problem,
but it's unexpected and the codegen is kind of bad.
Quoting Mark[1], the disassembly for arm64's invoke_syscall() looks like:
// offset = raw_cpu_read(kstack_offset)
mov x4, sp
adrp x0, kstack_offset
mrs x5, tpidr_el1
add x0, x0, #:lo12:kstack_offset
ldr w0, [x0, x5]
// offset = KSTACK_OFFSET_MAX(offset)
and x0, x0, #0x3ff
// alloca(offset)
add x0, x0, #0xf
and x0, x0, #0x7f0
sub sp, x4, x0
... which in C would be:
offset = raw_cpu_read(kstack_offset)
offset &= 0x3ff; // [0x0, 0x3ff]
offset += 0xf; // [0xf, 0x40e]
offset &= 0x7f0; // [0x0,
... so when *all* bits [3:0] are 0, they'll have no impact, and when
*any* of bits [3:0] are 1 they'll trigger a carry into bit 4, which
could ripple all the way up and spill into bit 10.
Switch the masking in KSTACK_OFFSET_MAX() to explicitly clear the bottom
bits to avoid the rounding by using 0b1111110000 instead of 0b1111111111:
// offset = raw_cpu_read(kstack_offset)
mov x4, sp
adrp x0, 0 <kstack_offset>
mrs x5, tpidr_el1
add x0, x0, #:lo12:kstack_offset
ldr w0, [x0, x5]
// offset = KSTACK_OFFSET_MAX(offset)
and x0, x0, #0x3f0
// alloca(offset)
sub sp, x4, x0
