# Commit ae09597da34aee6bc5b76475c5eea6994457e854 # Date 2022-06-09 14:22:08 +0200 # Author Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com> # Committer Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com> x86: Don't change the cacheability of the directmap Changeset 55f97f49b7ce ("x86: Change cache attributes of Xen 1:1 page mappings in response to guest mapping requests") attempted to keep the cacheability consistent between different mappings of the same page. The reason wasn't described in the changelog, but it is understood to be in regards to a concern over machine check exceptions, owing to errata when using mixed cacheabilities. It did this primarily by updating Xen's mapping of the page in the direct map when the guest mapped a page with reduced cacheability. Unfortunately, the logic didn't actually prevent mixed cacheability from occurring: * A guest could map a page normally, and then map the same page with different cacheability; nothing prevented this. * The cacheability of the directmap was always latest-takes-precedence in terms of guest requests. * Grant-mapped frames with lesser cacheability didn't adjust the page's cacheattr settings. * The map_domain_page() function still unconditionally created WB mappings, irrespective of the page's cacheattr settings. Additionally, update_xen_mappings() had a bug where the alias calculation was wrong for mfn's which were .init content, which should have been treated as fully guest pages, not Xen pages. Worse yet, the logic introduced a vulnerability whereby necessary pagetable/segdesc adjustments made by Xen in the validation logic could become non-coherent between the cache and main memory. The CPU could subsequently operate on the stale value in the cache, rather than the safe value in main memory. The directmap contains primarily mappings of RAM. PAT/MTRR conflict resolution is asymmetric, and generally for MTRR=WB ranges, PAT of lesser cacheability resolves to being coherent. The special case is WC mappings, which are non-coherent against MTRR=WB regions (except for fully-coherent CPUs). Xen must not have any WC cacheability in the directmap, to prevent Xen's actions from creating non-coherency. (Guest actions creating non-coherency is dealt with in subsequent patches.) As all memory types for MTRR=WB ranges inter-operate coherently, so leave Xen's directmap mappings as WB. Only PV guests with access to devices can use reduced-cacheability mappings to begin with, and they're trusted not to mount DoSs against the system anyway. Drop PGC_cacheattr_{base,mask} entirely, and the logic to manipulate them. Shift the later PGC_* constants up, to gain 3 extra bits in the main reference count. Retain the check in get_page_from_l1e() for special_pages() because a guest has no business using reduced cacheability on these. This reverts changeset 55f97f49b7ce6c3520c555d19caac6cf3f9a5df0 This is CVE-2022-26363, part of XSA-402.
