2025-04-01arm64: Don't call NULL in do_compat_alignment_fixup()Angelos Oikonomopoulos
do_alignment_t32_to_handler() only fixes up alignment faults for specific instructions; it returns NULL otherwise (e.g. LDREX). When that's the case, signal to the caller that it needs to proceed with the regular alignment fault handling (i.e. SIGBUS). Without this patch, the kernel panics: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000 Mem abort info: ESR = 0x0000000086000006 EC = 0x21: IABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits SET = 0, FnV = 0 EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 FSC = 0x06: level 2 translation fault user pgtable: 4k pages, 48-bit VAs, pgdp=00000800164aa000 [0000000000000000] pgd=0800081fdbd22003, p4d=0800081fdbd22003, pud=08000815d51c6003, pmd=0000000000000000 Internal error: Oops: 0000000086000006 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: cfg80211 rfkill xt_nat xt_tcpudp xt_conntrack nft_chain_nat xt_MASQUERADE nf_nat nf_conntrack_netlink nf_conntrack nf_defrag_ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv4 xfrm_user xfrm_algo xt_addrtype nft_compat br_netfilter veth nvme_fa> libcrc32c crc32c_generic raid0 multipath linear dm_mod dax raid1 md_mod xhci_pci nvme xhci_hcd nvme_core t10_pi usbcore igb crc64_rocksoft crc64 crc_t10dif crct10dif_generic crct10dif_ce crct10dif_common usb_common i2c_algo_bit i2c> CPU: 2 PID: 3932954 Comm: WPEWebProcess Not tainted 6.1.0-31-arm64 #1 Debian 6.1.128-1 Hardware name: GIGABYTE MP32-AR1-00/MP32-AR1-00, BIOS F18v (SCP: 1.08.20211002) 12/01/2021 pstate: 80400009 (Nzcv daif +PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) pc : 0x0 lr : do_compat_alignment_fixup+0xd8/0x3dc sp : ffff80000f973dd0 x29: ffff80000f973dd0 x28: ffff081b42526180 x27: 0000000000000000 x26: 0000000000000000 x25: 0000000000000000 x24: 0000000000000000 x23: 0000000000000004 x22: 0000000000000000 x21: 0000000000000001 x20: 00000000e8551f00 x19: ffff80000f973eb0 x18: 0000000000000000 x17: 0000000000000000 x16: 0000000000000000 x15: 0000000000000000 x14: 0000000000000000 x13: 0000000000000000 x12: 0000000000000000 x11: 0000000000000000 x10: 0000000000000000 x9 : ffffaebc949bc488 x8 : 0000000000000000 x7 : 0000000000000000 x6 : 0000000000000000 x5 : 0000000000400000 x4 : 0000fffffffffffe x3 : 0000000000000000 x2 : ffff80000f973eb0 x1 : 00000000e8551f00 x0 : 0000000000000001 Call trace: 0x0 do_alignment_fault+0x40/0x50 do_mem_abort+0x4c/0xa0 el0_da+0x48/0xf0 el0t_32_sync_handler+0x110/0x140 el0t_32_sync+0x190/0x194 Code: bad PC value ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- Signed-off-by: Angelos Oikonomopoulos <angelos@igalia.com> Fixes: 3fc24ef32d3b ("arm64: compat: Implement misalignment fixups for multiword loads") Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 6.1.x Reviewed-by: Anshuman Khandual <anshuman.khandual@arm.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250401085150.148313-1-angelos@igalia.com Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
2023-04-05arm64: compat: Work around uninitialized variable warningArd Biesheuvel
Dan reports that smatch complains about a potential uninitialized variable being used in the compat alignment fixup code. The logic is not wrong per se, but we do end up using an uninitialized variable if reading the instruction that triggered the alignment fault from user space faults, even if the fault ensures that the uninitialized value doesn't propagate any further. Given that we just give up and return 1 if any fault occurs when reading the instruction, let's get rid of the 'success handling' pattern that captures the fault in a variable and aborts later, and instead, just return 1 immediately if any of the get_user() calls result in an exception.

2022-09-06arm64: compat: Implement misalignment fixups for multiword loadsArd Biesheuvel
The 32-bit ARM kernel implements fixups on behalf of user space when using LDM/STM or LDRD/STRD instructions on addresses that are not 32-bit aligned. This is not something that is supported by the architecture, but was done anyway to increase compatibility with user space software, which mostly targeted x86 at the time and did not care about aligned accesses. This feature is one of the remaining impediments to being able to switch to 64-bit kernels on 64-bit capable hardware running 32-bit user space, so let's implement it for the arm64 compat layer as well. Note that the intent is to implement the exact same handling of misaligned multi-word loads and stores as the 32-bit kernel does, including what appears to be missing support for user space programs that rely on SETEND to switch to a different byte order and back. Also, like the 32-bit ARM version, we rely on the faulting address reported by the CPU to infer the memory address, instead of decoding the instruction fully to obtain this information. This implementation is taken from the 32-bit ARM tree, with all pieces removed that deal with instructions other than LDRD/STRD and LDM/STM, or that deal with alignment exceptions taken in kernel mode.
