Aneesh Kumar K.V 62c1cf71a2 powerpc/book3s64/pkeys: Fix pkey_access_permitted() for execute disable pkey
commit 192b6a7805 upstream.

Even if the IAMR value denies execute access, the current code returns
true from pkey_access_permitted() for an execute permission check, if
the AMR read pkey bit is cleared.

This results in repeated page fault loop with a test like below:

  #define _GNU_SOURCE
  #include <errno.h>
  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <stdlib.h>
  #include <signal.h>
  #include <inttypes.h>

  #include <assert.h>
  #include <malloc.h>
  #include <unistd.h>
  #include <pthread.h>
  #include <sys/mman.h>

  #ifdef SYS_pkey_mprotect
  #undef SYS_pkey_mprotect
  #endif

  #ifdef SYS_pkey_alloc
  #undef SYS_pkey_alloc
  #endif

  #ifdef SYS_pkey_free
  #undef SYS_pkey_free
  #endif

  #undef PKEY_DISABLE_EXECUTE
  #define PKEY_DISABLE_EXECUTE	0x4

  #define SYS_pkey_mprotect	386
  #define SYS_pkey_alloc		384
  #define SYS_pkey_free		385

  #define PPC_INST_NOP		0x60000000
  #define PPC_INST_BLR		0x4e800020
  #define PROT_RWX		(PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE | PROT_EXEC)

  static int sys_pkey_mprotect(void *addr, size_t len, int prot, int pkey)
  {
  	return syscall(SYS_pkey_mprotect, addr, len, prot, pkey);
  }

  static int sys_pkey_alloc(unsigned long flags, unsigned long access_rights)
  {
  	return syscall(SYS_pkey_alloc, flags, access_rights);
  }

  static int sys_pkey_free(int pkey)
  {
  	return syscall(SYS_pkey_free, pkey);
  }

  static void do_execute(void *region)
  {
  	/* jump to region */
  	asm volatile(
  		"mtctr	%0;"
  		"bctrl"
  		: : "r"(region) : "ctr", "lr");
  }

  static void do_protect(void *region)
  {
  	size_t pgsize;
  	int i, pkey;

  	pgsize = getpagesize();

  	pkey = sys_pkey_alloc(0, PKEY_DISABLE_EXECUTE);
  	assert (pkey > 0);

  	/* perform mprotect */
  	assert(!sys_pkey_mprotect(region, pgsize, PROT_RWX, pkey));
  	do_execute(region);

  	/* free pkey */
  	assert(!sys_pkey_free(pkey));

  }

  int main(int argc, char **argv)
  {
  	size_t pgsize, numinsns;
  	unsigned int *region;
  	int i;

  	/* allocate memory region to protect */
  	pgsize = getpagesize();
  	region = memalign(pgsize, pgsize);
  	assert(region != NULL);
  	assert(!mprotect(region, pgsize, PROT_RWX));

  	/* fill page with NOPs with a BLR at the end */
  	numinsns = pgsize / sizeof(region[0]);
  	for (i = 0; i < numinsns - 1; i++)
  		region[i] = PPC_INST_NOP;
  	region[i] = PPC_INST_BLR;

  	do_protect(region);

  	return EXIT_SUCCESS;
  }

The fix is to only check the IAMR for an execute check, the AMR value
is not relevant.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
