From: Andy Lutomirski <l...@kernel.org> The IRQ stack lives in percpu space, so an IRQ handler that overflows it will overwrite other data structures.
Use vmap() to remap the IRQ stack so that it will have the usual guard pages that vmap/vmalloc allocations have. With this the kernel will panic immediately on an IRQ stack overflow. [ tglx: Move the map code to a proper place and invoke it only when a CPU is about to be brought online. No point in installing the map at early boot for all possible CPUs. Fail the CPU bringup if the vmap fails as done for all other preparatory stages in cpu hotplug. ] Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <l...@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <t...@linutronix.de> --- arch/x86/kernel/irq_64.c | 30 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 30 insertions(+) --- a/arch/x86/kernel/irq_64.c +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/irq_64.c @@ -91,6 +91,35 @@ bool handle_irq(struct irq_desc *desc, s return true; } +#ifdef CONFIG_VMAP_STACK +/* + * VMAP the backing store with guard pages + */ +static int map_irq_stack(unsigned int cpu) +{ + char *stack = (char *)per_cpu_ptr(&irq_stack_backing_store, cpu); + struct page *pages[IRQ_STACK_SIZE / PAGE_SIZE]; + void *va; + int i; + + for (i = 0; i < IRQ_STACK_SIZE / PAGE_SIZE; i++) { + phys_addr_t pa = per_cpu_ptr_to_phys(stack + (i << PAGE_SHIFT)); + + pages[i] = pfn_to_page(pa >> PAGE_SHIFT); + } + + va = vmap(pages, IRQ_STACK_SIZE / PAGE_SIZE, GFP_KERNEL, PAGE_KERNEL); + if (!va) + return -ENOMEM; + + per_cpu(hardirq_stack_ptr, cpu) = va + IRQ_STACK_SIZE; + return 0; +} +#else +/* + * If VMAP stacks are disabled due to KASAN, just use the per cpu + * backing store without guard pages. + */ static int map_irq_stack(unsigned int cpu) { void *va = per_cpu_ptr(&irq_stack_backing_store, cpu); @@ -98,6 +127,7 @@ static int map_irq_stack(unsigned int cp per_cpu(hardirq_stack_ptr, cpu) = va + IRQ_STACK_SIZE; return 0; } +#endif int irq_init_percpu_irqstack(unsigned int cpu) {
