[RFC PATCH 0/7] static call updates

[RFC PATCH 0/7] static call updates

[Ard Biesheuvel]

This series addresses a number of asymmetries and inconsistencies in
both the API and the implementation of static calls. The aim is to
ensure that the documented API is fully implemented and works correctly,
regardless of which variety of static calls the arch decides to
implement.

Another goal of this series is to ensure that the caller of the API does
not need to choose a particular kind of macro depending on whether the
static call exports its key and/or whether the static call in question
may implement the NULL flavor.

  static_call: get rid of static_call_cond()
  static_call: deal with unexported keys without cluttering up the API
  static_call: use helper to access non-exported key
  static_call: fix broken static_call_query() for non-exported keys
  static_call: use non-function types to refer to the trampolines
  static_call: rename EXPORT_ macros to be more self-explanatory
  static_call: add generic support for non-exported keys

[RFC PATCH 1/7] static_call: get rid of static_call_cond()

[Ard Biesheuvel]

The main reason for the existence of static_call_cond() seems to be that
in theory, when using the generic implementation of static calls, it may
be possible for a compiler to elide the indirect call entirely if the
target is NULL, while still guaranteeing that all side effects of
argument evaluation occur as expected.

This is rather optimistic: as documented by an existing code comment,
both GCC and Clang (version 10) get this wrong, and even if they ever
get it right, this is far too subtle to rely on for a code path that is
expected to be used only by the 'remaining' architectures once all the
best supported ones implement either the out-of-line or inline optimized
variety of static calls.

Given that having static_call_cond() clutters up the API, and puts the
burden on the caller to go and check what kind of static call they are
dealing with, let's just get rid of the distinction.

No, static_call_cond() signifies the function can be NULL. Both gcc and
clang generate correct (but wildly ineffecient) code for this. Without
static_call_cond() the generic implementation will do a NULL deref.

That is, static_call_cond() does properly encapuslate:

	func = READ_ONCE(key.func);
	if (func)
		func(ARGS);

You can't take that out.

I actually address that in the patch.

AIUI, the compiler generates an indirect call to __static_call_nop(),
right? So why not simply set .func to the address of
__static_call_nop() when NULL is passed to update / the initializer?

[RFC PATCH 2/7] static_call: deal with unexported keys without cluttering up the API

[Ard Biesheuvel]

In principle, invoking a static call does not require access to the
static call key that is used to manipulate the function that the static
call targets. This means that exporting only the static call but not its
key to modules should prevent such modules from manipulating the target
inadvertently.

However, for inline static calls, we do need access to the key at module
load time, because the code patching routines rely on it. For this
reason, there is special handling in objtool that recovers the key
pointer from the address of the trampoline (which does get exported
unconditionally), using a lookup table in the core kernel.

Unfortunately, this clutters up the user-visible API: a static call is
normally invoked using the static_call() macro, but in cases where a)
the call originates from a module and b) the associated key was not
exported, it is left up to the user to pick the static_call_mod() macro
instead. Since that macro relies on the lookup table in the core kernel,
it can only be used on static calls that are exported from the core
kernel.

It would be much better if the call sites can simply use static_call()
and not have to figure out whether or not the static call exports its
key and/or whether it as exported from the core kernel.

So let's address this, by using a weak reference for the key. This means
we can force the symbol reference in the module to be emitted
unconditionally, allowing the caller to use static_call() without
knowing the difference. This does imply that the logic in objtool that
tests whether a symbol exists in the object no longer works, as the
symbol is guaranteed to exist. So instead, add another field to struct
static_call_site to cover the trampoline reference, and fix up the
module notifier that consumes this data accordingly.

This gets rid of the following macros:

  __STATIC_CALL_MOD_ADDRESSABLE()
  static_call_mod()
  __static_call()
  __raw_static_call()

I can't say I'm thrilled at growing this thing, but the cleanup is nice.
Perhaps we can increase alignment on struct static_call_key and instead
frob it in .key still?

I'm a little bit confused on how this actually works. What does a __weak
extern data symbol do?

A __weak function definition would create a module local instance of the
function barring a strong override.

But what does a __weak extern do?

This seems to imply that the __weak extern symbol gets resolved to 0 at
module link time.

This is already a place-relative field, and one points into the data
section and the other into text. So I don't see how we can squeeze
enough bits out of it to make this fit.

It is simply a reference that is permitted to remain undefined.

That is why (in another patch) I do sth like

extern __weak foo;

if (&foo)
  ... use foo
else
   ... use sth else

Yes, if the referenced symbol is not exported, it just uses 0x0 for its value.

Well, the actual address will be:

	((unsigned long)&site->key + site->key)

either way around, right? Now, if we align struct static_call_key to 8,
that means the low 3 bits of that address will be 0 and free for us to
muck about with.

That is, we already use the low 2 bits of that (because natural
alignment etc.).

If we got 3 bits, we could shift the existing two bits one up and free
up bit0, then say that if bit0 is set, it's a trampoline address. The
only additional requirement would be that trampolines are (at least)
aligned 2 (they're at 4 currently).

Except.... it would be the linker having to create that field, and
there's no way that thing is smart like that :-( Ooh well.

[RFC PATCH 3/7] static_call: use helper to access non-exported key

[Ard Biesheuvel]

We support static calls from modules without the keys being exported,
but since the inline patching code needs access to the key regardless,
we have special handling in the module notifier that looks up the key
based on the trampoline address in a list that is kept especially for
this purpose.

This list is part of the core kernel, and only contains static calls
exported from the core kernel. This means that exporting static calls
without the associated key is only possible from the core kernel, and
any attempts to do so from another module currently result in module
load failures.

So let's replace this list with a special per-static call helper that
returns the static call key address, provided that the call originates
from the core kernel. This prevents access to the key for modular
callers, while removing the need to keep a list of key/trampoline pairs.

Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
---
Alternatively, we might fix the module loader to look for
.static_call_tramp_key sections in all modules loaded prior, but I'm not
sure whether that would be cleaner.

So if I were a nevarious module, I would look up the above symbol from
kallsyms (it is exported and easily obtainable) and then simply
read the text to discover the key address and we're in business.

Yeah I realised that. So would you prefer to have a
.static_call_tramp_key section in each module and look up the keys in
the module loader?

Think so... do you actually have a need for this?

Well, not exactly. But the XOR patch I sent earlier today does cover
this use case, and would be broken if we implemented inline static
calls on arm64.

So the easy fix is to allow EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_RO() only from the core
kernel, and require EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_RW() otherwise. That way, this
can never end up being used in a way that breaks at runtime. Would you
prefer doing that instead?

[RFC PATCH 4/7] static_call: fix broken static_call_query() for non-exported keys

[Ard Biesheuvel]

static_call_query() accesses the func member of the static call key
directly, which means that it is broken for cases where it is used from
a module and the key resides elsewhere and is not exported.

Let's add a helper that returns this value, and export it from the same
module that the key resides in if the key itself is not exported. This
way, we can always get the value regardless of whether the key is
exported or not.

Note that the non-NULL check of &STATIC_CALL_KEY(...) does not typically
result in a load: for ISAs that support relocatable immediates, the
address is patched into the instruction stream.

For example, on ARM/Thumb2, we get

 14a:   f240 0300       movw    r3, #0
                        14a: R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC      __SCK__pv_steal_clock
 14e:   f2c0 0300       movt    r3, #0
                        14e: R_ARM_THM_MOVT_ABS         __SCK__pv_steal_clock
 152:   b10b            cbz     r3, 158 <foo+0x14>
 154:   6818            ldr     r0, [r3, #0]
 156:   4770            bx      lr
 158:   f7ff bffe       b.w     0 <__SCQ__pv_steal_clock>
                        158: R_ARM_THM_JUMP24           __SCQ__pv_steal_clock

I.e., it performs a conditional branch if zero (CBZ) on a quantity that
was loaded using an MOVW/MOVT move-immediate pair, and either loads the
func member directly, or tail calls __SCQ__pv_steal_clock if they key is
not exported.

Arguably when the module can't change the value, it shouldn't be having
any interest in obtaining said value either.

I really think you're exporting too much. Modules aren't good, they
deserve to suffer.

[RFC PATCH 5/7] static_call: use non-function types to refer to the trampolines

[Ard Biesheuvel]

In order to prevent CFI enabled code from grabbing a jump table entry
that jumps to the trampoline, rather than the trampoline itself, use an
incomplete non-function type for the trampoline, and cast it to the
right type only when invoking it.

[RFC PATCH 6/7] static_call: rename EXPORT_ macros to be more self-explanatory

[Ard Biesheuvel]

There are currently two ways to export static calls to modules:
- export only the current static call target, so that modules can invoke
  it but not make it point to another target;
- export the static call key so that modules may call
  static_call_update() and patch all invocations tied to that key.

Depending on the flavor of static call implementation, different things
need to be exported: for the generic case, we need to export the key
regardless of which export was chosen, but for other cases, we only
export the trampoline but not the key.

As the latter is an implementation detail, EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_TRAMP() is
not the best choice for the name of the export macro that only exports
the target but not the key.

So let's rename these macros to

  EXPORT_STATIC_CALL        -> EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_FOR_UPDATE
  EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_TRAMP  -> EXPORT_STATIC_CALL

(and the _GPL suffixed ones in a similar fashion). That way, the default
does not expose the key, and users that need to expose control over the
static call key to modules can do so explicitly by choosing the
_FOR_UPDATE version instead.

While at it, add the missing ones for the generic static call
implementation.

Ok, let's pain this shed a bit.

How about:

	EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_RW
	EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_RO

respectively. OR.. alternatively, have both:

	EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_KEY
	EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_TRAMP

and those that want to export both get to use both.

Yeah but whether a trampoline even exists is an implementation detail,
which I would like to omit from the API.

[RFC PATCH 7/7] static_call: add generic support for non-exported keys

[Ard Biesheuvel]

The static_call feature where only the static call target is exposed to
modules while access to the key is withheld is only implemented for the
inline and out-of-line varieties, but not for the generic indirect call
based variety.

Let's use static_call_query() to obtain the call target address if the
key is not exported. Note that this means we can do the converse as
well, i.e., implement static_call_query() in terms of the key struct if
the key is exported, so we only need to export one of the two.

Note that this adds an additional load and potentially a direct call to
the instantiations of static_call residing in module code.
