Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

riscv: VMAP_STACK overflow detection thread-safe

commit 31da94c25aea ("riscv: add VMAP_STACK overflow detection") added
support for CONFIG_VMAP_STACK. If overflow is detected, CPU switches to
`shadow_stack` temporarily before switching finally to per-cpu
`overflow_stack`.

If two CPUs/harts are racing and end up in over flowing kernel stack, one
or both will end up corrupting each other state because `shadow_stack` is
not per-cpu. This patch optimizes per-cpu overflow stack switch by
directly picking per-cpu `overflow_stack` and gets rid of `shadow_stack`.

Following are the changes in this patch

- Defines an asm macro to obtain per-cpu symbols in destination
register.
- In entry.S, when overflow is detected, per-cpu overflow stack is
located using per-cpu asm macro. Computing per-cpu symbol requires
a temporary register. x31 is saved away into CSR_SCRATCH
(CSR_SCRATCH is anyways zero since we're in kernel).

Please see Links for additional relevant disccussion and alternative
solution.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: riscv: detección de desbordamiento de VMAP_STACK confirmación segura para subprocesos 31da94c25aea ("riscv: agregar detección de desbordamiento de VMAP_STACK") se agregó soporte para CONFIG_VMAP_STACK. Si se detecta un desbordamiento, la CPU cambia a `shadow_stack` temporalmente antes de cambiar finalmente a `overflow_stack` por CPU. Si dos CPU/harts están corriendo y terminan en una pila de kernel desbordada, uno o ambos terminarán corrompiendo el estado del otro porque `shadow_stack` no es por CPU. Este parche optimiza el cambio de pila de desbordamiento por CPU seleccionando directamente `overflow_stack` por CPU y elimina `shadow_stack`. Los siguientes son los cambios en este parche: Define una macro asm para obtener símbolos por CPU en el registro de destino. - En Entry.S, cuando se detecta un desbordamiento, la pila de desbordamiento por CPU se ubica mediante la macro ASM por CPU. Calcular el símbolo por CPU requiere un registro temporal. x31 se guarda en CSR_SCRATCH (CSR_SCRATCH es de todos modos cero ya que estamos en el kernel).
