Subject: [PATCH 02/28] riscv: envcfg save and restore on trap entry/exit

envcfg CSR defines enabling bits for cache management instructions and soon
will control enabling for control flow integrity and pointer masking features.

Control flow integrity enabling for forward cfi and backward cfi is controlled
via envcfg and thus need to be enabled on per thread basis.

This patch creates a place holder for envcfg CSR in `thread_info` and adds
logic to save and restore on trap entry and exits.

This patch adds support for detecting zicfiss and zicfilp. zicfiss and zicfilp
stands for unprivleged integer spec extension for shadow stack and branch
tracking on indirect branches, respectively.

This patch looks for zicfiss and zicfilp in device tree and accordinlgy lights
up bit in cpu feature bitmap. Furthermore this patch adds detection utility
functions to return whether shadow stack or landing pads are supported by
cpu.

Subject: [PATCH 06/28] riscv: zicfiss/zicfilp extension csr and bit
 definitions

zicfiss and zicfilp extension gets enabled via b3 and b2 in xenvcfg CSR.
menvcfg controls enabling for S/HS mode. henvcfg control enabling for VS while
senvcfg controls enabling for U/VU mode.

zicfilp extension extends xstatus CSR to hold `expected landing pad` bit.
A trap or interrupt can occur between an indirect jmp/call and target instr.
`expected landing pad` bit from CPU is recorded into xstatus CSR so that when
supervisor performs xret, `expected landing pad` state of CPU can be restored.

zicfiss adds one new CSR
- CSR_SSP: CSR_SSP contains current shadow stack pointer.

Carves out space in arch specific thread struct for cfi status and shadow stack
in usermode on riscv.

This patch does following
- defines a new structure cfi_status with status bit for cfi feature
- defines shadow stack pointer, base and size in cfi_status structure
- defines offsets to new member fields in thread in asm-offsets.c
- Saves and restore shadow stack pointer on trap entry (U --> S) and exit
  (S --> U)

Subject: [PATCH 08/28] mm: Define VM_SHADOW_STACK for RISC-V

VM_SHADOW_STACK is defined by x86 as vm flag to mark a shadow stack vma.

x86 uses VM_HIGH_ARCH_5 bit but that limits shadow stack vma to 64bit only.
arm64 follows same path
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20231009-arm64-gcs-v6-12-78e55deaa4dd@kernel.org/#r

On RISC-V, write-only page table encodings are shadow stack pages. This patch
re-defines VM_WRITE only to be VM_SHADOW_STACK.

Next set of patches will set guard rail that no other mm flow can set VM_WRITE
only in vma except when specifically creating shadow stack.

Subject: [PATCH 09/28] mm: abstract shadow stack vma behind
 `arch_is_shadow_stack`

x86 has used VM_SHADOW_STACK (alias to VM_HIGH_ARCH_5) to encode shadow
stack VMA. VM_SHADOW_STACK is thus not possible on 32bit. Some arches may
need a way to encode shadow stack on 32bit and 64bit both and they may
encode this information differently in VMAs.

This patch changes checks of VM_SHADOW_STACK flag in generic code to call
to a function `arch_is_shadow_stack` which will return true if arch
supports shadow stack and vma is shadow stack else stub returns false.

There was a suggestion to name it as `vma_is_shadow_stack`. I preferred to
keep `arch` prefix in there because it's each arch specific.

Subject: [PATCH 10/28] riscv/mm : Introducing new protection flag
 "PROT_SHADOWSTACK"

x86 and arm64 are using VM_SHADOW_STACK (which actually is VM_HIGH_ARCH_5)
vma flag and thus restrict it to 64bit implementation only. RISC-V is choosing
to encode presence of only VM_WRITE in vma flags as shadow stack vma. This allows
32bit RISC-V ecosystem leverage shadow stack as well.
This means that existing users of `do_mmap` who had been using `VM_WRITE` and
expecting read and write permissions will break.
Thus introducing `PROT_SHADOWSTACK` to allow `do_mmap` disambiguate between
read write v/s shadow stack mappings. Thus any kernel driver/module using `do_mmap`
and only passing `VM_WRITE` would still get read-write mappings. Although any user
of `do_mmap` intending to map a shaodw stack should pass `PROT_SHADOWSTACK` to get
a shadow stack mapping.

Although for userspace still want to rely on `map_shadow_stack` and not expose
`PROT_SHADOWSTACK` to userspace and that's why this prot flag is not exposed in uapi
headers.

Subject: [PATCH 11/28] riscv: Implementing "PROT_SHADOWSTACK" on riscv

This patch implements new risc-v specific protection flag
`PROT_SHADOWSTACK` (only for kernel) on riscv.

`PROT_SHADOWSTACK` protection flag is only limited to kernel and not exposed
to userspace. Shadow stack is a security construct to prevent against ROP attacks.
`map_shadow_stack` is a new syscall to manufacture shadow stack. In order to avoid
multiple methods to create shadow stack, `PROT_SHADOWSTACK` is not allowed for user
space `mmap` call. `mprotect` wouldn't allow because `arch_validate_prot` already
takes care of this for risc-v.

`arch_calc_vm_prot_bits` is implemented on risc-v to return VM_SHADOW_STACK (alias
for VM_WRITE) if PROT_SHADOWSTACK is supplied (such as call to `do_mmap` will) and
underlying CPU supports shadow stack. `PROT_WRITE` will be converted to `VM_READ |
`VM_WRITE` so that existing case where `PROT_WRITE` is specified keep working but
don't collide with `VM_WRITE` only encoding which now denotes a shadow stack.

risc-v `mmap` wrapper enforces if PROT_WRITE is specified and PROT_READ is left out
then PROT_READ is enforced.

Earlier `protection_map[VM_WRITE]` used to pick read-write (and copy on write) PTE
encodings. Now all non-shadow stack writeable mappings will pick `protection_map[VM_WRITE
| VM_READ] PTE encodings. `protection[VM_WRITE]` are programmed to pick PAGE_SHADOWSTACK
PTE encordings.

Subject: [PATCH 13/28] riscv mmu: teach pte_mkwrite to manufacture shadow
 stack PTEs

pte_mkwrite creates PTEs with WRITE encodings for underlying arch. Underlying
arch can have two types of writeable mappings. One that can be written using
regular store instructions. Another one that can only be written using specialized
store instructions (like shadow stack stores). pte_mkwrite can select write PTE
encoding based on VMA range.

On riscv, presence of only VM_WRITE in vma->vm_flags means it's a shadow stack.

Subject: [PATCH 14/28] riscv mmu: write protect and shadow stack

`fork` implements copy on write (COW) by making pages readonly in child
and parent both.

ptep_set_wrprotect and pte_wrprotect clears _PAGE_WRITE in PTE.
Assumption is that page is readable and on fault copy on write happens.

To implement COW on such pages, clearing up W bit makes them XWR = 000.
This will result in wrong PTE setting which says no perms but V=1 and PFN
field pointing to final page. Instead desired behavior is to turn it into
a readable page, take an access (load/store) fault on sspush/sspop
(shadow stack) and then perform COW on such pages. This way regular reads
would still be allowed and not lead to COW maintaining current behavior
of COW on non-shadow stack but writeable memory.

On the other hand it doesn't interfere with existing COW for read-write
memory. Assumption is always that _PAGE_READ must have been set and thus
setting _PAGE_READ is harmless.

Subject: [PATCH 15/28] riscv/mm: Implement map_shadow_stack() syscall

As discussed extensively in the changelog for the addition of this
syscall on x86 ("x86/shstk: Introduce map_shadow_stack syscall") the
existing mmap() and madvise() syscalls do not map entirely well onto the
security requirements for guarded control stacks since they lead to
windows where memory is allocated but not yet protected or stacks which
are not properly and safely initialised. Instead a new syscall
map_shadow_stack() has been defined which allocates and initialises a
shadow stack page.

This patch implements this syscall for riscv. riscv doesn't require token
to be setup by kernel because user mode can do that by itself. However to
provide compatiblity and portability with other architectues, user mode can
specify token set flag.

Subject: [PATCH 16/28] riscv/shstk: If needed allocate a new shadow stack on
 clone

Userspace specifies VM_CLONE to share address space and spawn new thread.
`clone` allow userspace to specify a new stack for new thread. However
there is no way to specify new shadow stack base address without changing
API. This patch allocates a new shadow stack whenever VM_CLONE is given.

In case of VM_FORK, parent is suspended until child finishes and thus can
child use parent shadow stack. In case of !VM_CLONE, COW kicks in because
entire address space is copied from parent to child.

`clone3` is extensible and can provide mechanisms using which shadow stack
as an input parameter can be provided. This is not settled yet and being
extensively discussed on mailing list. Once that's settled, this commit
will adapt to that.

Subject: [PATCH 17/28] prctl: arch-agnostic prctl for shadow stack

Three architectures (x86, aarch64, riscv) have announced support for
shadow stacks with fairly similar functionality.  While x86 is using
arch_prctl() to control the functionality neither arm64 nor riscv uses
that interface so this patch adds arch-agnostic prctl() support to
get and set status of shadow stacks and lock the current configuation to
prevent further changes, with support for turning on and off individual
subfeatures so applications can limit their exposure to features that
they do not need.  The features are:

  - PR_SHADOW_STACK_ENABLE: Tracking and enforcement of shadow stacks,
    including allocation of a shadow stack if one is not already
    allocated.
  - PR_SHADOW_STACK_WRITE: Writes to specific addresses in the shadow
    stack.
  - PR_SHADOW_STACK_PUSH: Push additional values onto the shadow stack.
  - PR_SHADOW_STACK_DISABLE: Allow to disable shadow stack.
    Note once locked, disable must fail.

These features are expected to be inherited by new threads and cleared
on exec(), unknown features should be rejected for enable but accepted
for locking (in order to allow for future proofing).

This is based on a patch originally written by Deepak Gupta but later
modified by Mark Brown for arm's GCS patch series.

indirect branches, CPU goes in a state where it expects a landing pad instr
on target and if not found then CPU raises some fault (architecture dependent)

x86 landing pad instr - `ENDBRANCH`
aarch64 landing pad instr - `BTI`
riscv landing instr - `lpad`

Given that three major arches have support for indirect branch tracking,
This patch makes `prctl` for indirect branch tracking arch agnostic.

To allow userspace to enable this feature for itself, following prtcls are
defined:
 - PR_GET_INDIR_BR_LP_STATUS: Gets current configured status for indirect branch
   tracking.
 - PR_SET_INDIR_BR_LP_STATUS: Sets a configuration for indirect branch tracking
   Following status options are allowed
           - PR_INDIR_BR_LP_ENABLE: Enables indirect branch tracking on user
             thread.
           - PR_INDIR_BR_LP_DISABLE; Disables indirect branch tracking on user
             thread.
 - PR_LOCK_INDIR_BR_LP_STATUS: Locks configured status for indirect branch
   tracking for user thread.

Subject: [PATCH 19/28] riscv: Implements arch agnostic shadow stack prctls

Implement architecture agnostic prctls() interface for setting and getting
shadow stack status.

prctls implemented are PR_GET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS, PR_SET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS
and PR_LOCK_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS.

As part of PR_SET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS/PR_GET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS, only
PR_SHADOW_STACK_ENABLE is implemented because RISCV allows each mode to write
to their own shadow stack using `sspush` or `ssamoswap`.

PR_LOCK_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS locks current configuration of shadow stack enabling
Following is not supported
 "Enable shadow stack, then disable and enable again."
It's not sure whether providing such semantics are useful. It's better to return
error code when such situation arises.

Subject: [PATCH 21/28] riscv/traps: Introduce software check exception

zicfiss / zicfilp introduces a new exception to priv isa `software check
exception` with cause code = 18. This patch implements software check exception.

Additionally it implements a cfi violation handler which checks for code in xtval
If xtval=2, it means that sw check exception happened because of an indirect
branch not landing on 4 byte aligned PC or not landing on `lpad` instruction or
label value embedded in `lpad` not matching label value setup in `x7`.
If xtval=3, it means that sw check exception happened because of mismatch between
link register (x1 or x5) and top of shadow stack (on execution of `sspopchk`)

In case of cfi violation, SIGSEGV is raised with code=SEGV_CPERR. SEGV_CPERR was
introduced by x86 shadow stack patches.

sigcontext embedded in ucontext is extendible. Adding cfi state in there
which can be used to save cfi state before signal delivery and restore
cfi state on sigreturn

Subject: [PATCH 24/28] riscv: select config for shadow stack and landing pad
 instr support

This patch selects config shadow stack support and landing pad instr
support. Shadow stack support and landing instr support is hidden behind
`CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI`. Selecting `CONFIG_RISCV_USER_CFI` wires up path
to enumerate CPU support and if cpu support exists, kernel will support
cpu assisted user mode cfi.

Subject: [PATCH 25/28] riscv/ptrace: riscv cfi status and state via ptrace and
 in core files

Expose a new register type NT_RISCV_USER_CFI for risc-v cfi status and
state. Intentionally both landing pad and shadow stack status and state
are rolled into cfi state. Creating two different NT_RISCV_USER_XXX would
not be useful and wastage of a note type. Enabling or disabling of feature
is not allowed via ptrace set interface. However setting `elp` state or
setting shadow stack pointer are allowed via ptrace set interface. It is
expected `gdb` might have use to fixup `elp` state or `shadow stack`
pointer.

+====================================================
+Tracking indirect control transfers on RISC-V Linux
+====================================================
+
+This document briefly describes the interface provided to userspace by Linux
+to enable indirect branch tracking for user mode applications on RISV-V
+
+1. Feature Overview
+--------------------
+
+Memory corruption issues usually result in to crashes, however when in hands of
+an adversary and if used creatively can result into variety security issues.
+
+One of those security issues can be code re-use attacks on program where adversary
+can use corrupt function pointers and chain them together to perform jump oriented
+programming (JOP) or call oriented programming (COP) and thus compromising control
+flow integrity (CFI) of the program.
+
+Function pointers live in read-write memory and thus are susceptible to corruption
+and allows an adversary to reach any program counter (PC) in address space. On
+RISC-V zicfilp extension enforces a restriction on such indirect control transfers
+
+	- indirect control transfers must land on a landing pad instruction `lpad`.
+	  There are two exception to this rule
+		- rs1 = x1 or rs1 = x5, i.e. a return from a function and returns are
+		  protected using shadow stack (see zicfiss.rst)
+
+		- rs1 = x7. On RISC-V compiler usually does below to reach function
+		  which is beyond the offset possible J-type instruction.
+
+			"auipc x7, <imm>"
+			"jalr (x7)"
+
+		  Such form of indirect control transfer are still immutable and don't rely
+		  on memory and thus rs1=x7 is exempted from tracking and considered software
+		  guarded jumps.
+
+`lpad` instruction is pseudo of `auipc rd, <imm_20bit>` and is a HINT nop. `lpad`
+instruction must be aligned on 4 byte boundary and compares 20 bit immediate with x7.
+If `imm_20bit` == 0, CPU don't perform any comparision with x7. If `imm_20bit` != 0,
+then `imm_20bit` must match x7 else CPU will raise `software check exception`
+(cause=18)with `*tval = 2`.
+
+Compiler can generate a hash over function signatures and setup them (truncated
+to 20bit) in x7 at callsites and function proglogs can have `lpad` with same
+function hash. This further reduces number of program counters a call site can
+reach.
+
+2. ELF and psABI
+-----------------
+
+Toolchain sets up `GNU_PROPERTY_RISCV_FEATURE_1_FCFI` for property
+`GNU_PROPERTY_RISCV_FEATURE_1_AND` in notes section of the object file.
+
+3. Linux enabling
+------------------
+

+
+In all 3 cases, `*tval = 2` is captured and software check exception is raised

+=========================================================
+Shadow stack to protect function returns on RISC-V Linux
+=========================================================
+
+This document briefly describes the interface provided to userspace by Linux
+to enable shadow stack for user mode applications on RISV-V
+
+1. Feature Overview
+--------------------
+
+Memory corruption issues usually result in to crashes, however when in hands of
+an adversary and if used creatively can result into variety security issues.
+
+One of those security issues can be code re-use attacks on program where adversary
+can use corrupt return addresses present on stack and chain them together to perform
+return oriented programming (ROP) and thus compromising control flow integrity (CFI)
+of the program.
+
+Return addresses live on stack and thus in read-write memory and thus are
+susceptible to corruption and allows an adversary to reach any program counter
+(PC) in address space. On RISC-V `zicfiss` extension provides an alternate stack
+`shadow stack` on which return addresses can be safely placed in prolog of the
+function and retrieved in epilog. `zicfiss` extension makes following changes
+
+	- PTE encodings for shadow stack virtual memory
+	  An earlier reserved encoding in first stage translation i.e.
+	  PTE.R=0, PTE.W=1, PTE.X=0  becomes PTE encoding for shadow stack pages.
+
+	- `sspush x1/x5` instruction pushes (stores) `x1/x5` to shadow stack.
+
+	- `sspopchk x1/x5` instruction pops (loads) from shadow stack and compares
+	  with `x1/x5` and if un-equal, CPU raises `software check exception` with
+	  `*tval = 3`
+
+Compiler toolchain makes sure that function prologs have `sspush x1/x5` to save return
+address on shadow stack in addition to regular stack. Similarly function epilogs have
+`ld x5, offset(x2)`; `sspopchk x5` to ensure that popped value from regular stack
+matches with popped value from shadow stack.
+
+2. Shadow stack protections and linux memory manager
+-----------------------------------------------------
+
+As mentioned earlier, shadow stack get new page table encodings and thus have some
+special properties assigned to them and instructions that operate on them as below
+
+	- Regular stores to shadow stack memory raises access store faults.
+	  This way shadow stack memory is protected from stray inadvertant
+	  writes
+
+	- Regular loads to shadow stack memory are allowed.
+	  This allows stack trace utilities or backtrace functions to read
+	  true callstack (not tampered)
+
+	- Only shadow stack instructions can generate shadow stack load or
+	  shadow stack store.
+
+	- Shadow stack load / shadow stack store on read-only memory raises
+	  AMO/store page fault. Thus both `sspush x1/x5` and `sspopchk x1/x5`
+	  will raise AMO/store page fault. This simplies COW handling in kernel
+	  During fork, kernel can convert shadow stack pages into read-only
+	  memory (as it does for regular read-write memory) and as soon as
+	  subsequent `sspush` or `sspopchk` in userspace is encountered, then
+	  kernel can perform COW.
+
+	- Shadow stack load / shadow stack store on read-write, read-write-
+	  execute memory raises an access fault. This is a fatal condition
+	  because shadow stack should never be operating on read-write, read-
+	  write-execute memory.
+
+3. ELF and psABI
+-----------------
+
+Toolchain sets up `GNU_PROPERTY_RISCV_FEATURE_1_BCFI` for property
+`GNU_PROPERTY_RISCV_FEATURE_1_AND` in notes section of the object file.
+
+4. Linux enabling
+------------------
+
+User space programs can have multiple shared objects loaded in its address space
+and it's a difficult task to make sure all the dependencies have been compiled
+with support of shadow stack. Thus it's left to dynamic loader to enable
+shadow stack for the program.
+
+5. prctl() enabling
+--------------------
+
+`PR_SET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS` / `PR_GET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS` /
+`PR_LOCK_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS` are three prctls added to manage shadow stack
+enabling for tasks. prctls are arch agnostic and returns -EINVAL on other arches.
+
+`PR_SET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS`: If arg1 `PR_SHADOW_STACK_ENABLE` and if CPU supports
+`zicfiss` then kernel will enable shadow stack for the task. Dynamic loader can
+issue this `prctl` once it has determined that all the objects loaded in address
+space have support for shadow stack. Additionally if there is a `dlopen` to an
+object which wasn't compiled with `zicfiss`, dynamic loader can issue this prctl
+with arg1 set to 0 (i.e. `PR_SHADOW_STACK_ENABLE` being clear)
+
+`PR_GET_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS`: Returns current status of indirect branch tracking.
+If enabled it'll return `PR_SHADOW_STACK_ENABLE`
+
+`PR_LOCK_SHADOW_STACK_STATUS`: Locks current status of shadow stack enabling on the
+task. User space may want to run with strict security posture and wouldn't want
+loading of objects without `zicfiss` support in it and thus would want to disallow
+disabling of shadow stack on current task. In that case user space can use this prctl
+to lock current settings.
+
+5. violations related to returns with shadow stack enabled
+-----------------------------------------------------------
+
+Pertaining to shadow stack, CPU raises software check exception in following
+condition
+
+	- On execution of `sspopchk x1/x5`, x1/x5 didn't match top of shadow stack.
+	  If mismatch happens then cpu does `*tval = 3` and raise software check
+	  exception
+
+Linux kernel will treat this as `SIGSEV`` with code = `SEGV_CPERR` and follow
+normal course of signal delivery.
+
+6. Shadow stack tokens
+-----------------------
+Regular stores on shadow stacks are not allowed and thus can't be tampered with via
+arbitrary stray writes due to bugs. Method of pivoting / switching to shadow stack
+is simply writing to csr `CSR_SSP` changes active shadow stack. This can be problematic
+because usually value to be written to `CSR_SSP` will be loaded somewhere in writeable
+memory and thus allows an adversary to corruption bug in software to pivot to an any
+address in shadow stack range. Shadow stack tokens can help mitigate this problem by
+making sure that:
+
+ - When software is switching away from a shadow stack, shadow stack pointer should be
+   saved on shadow stack itself and call it `shadow stack token`
+
+ - When software is switching to a shadow stack, it should read the `shadow stack token`
+   from shadow stack pointer and verify that `shadow stack token` itself is pointer to
+   shadow stack itself.
+
+ - Once the token verification is done, software can perform the write to `CSR_SSP` to
+   switch shadow stack.
+
+Here software can be user mode task runtime itself which is managing various contexts
+as part of single thread. Software can be kernel as well when kernel has to deliver a
+signal to user task and must save shadow stack pointer. Kernel can perform similar
+procedure by saving a token on user shadow stack itself. This way whenever sigreturn
+happens, kernel can read the token and verify the token and then switch to shadow stack.
+Using this mechanism, kernel helps user task so that any corruption issue in user task
+is not exploited by adversary by arbitrarily using `sigreturn`. Adversary will have to
+make sure that there is a `shadow stack token` in addition to invoking `sigreturn`
+
+7. Signal shadow stack
+-----------------------
+Following structure has been added to sigcontext for RISC-V. `rsvd` field has been kept
+in case we need some extra information in future for landing pads / indirect branch
+tracking. It has been kept today in order to allow backward compatibility in future.
+
+struct __sc_riscv_cfi_state {
+	unsigned long ss_ptr;
+	unsigned long rsvd;
+};
+
+As part of signal delivery, shadow stack token is saved on current shadow stack itself and
+updated pointer is saved away in `ss_ptr` field in `__sc_riscv_cfi_state` under `sigcontext`
+Existing shadow stack allocation is used for signal delivery. During `sigreturn`, kernel will
+obtain `ss_ptr` from `sigcontext` and verify the saved token on shadow stack itself and switch
+shadow stack.

Subject: [PATCH 28/28] kselftest/riscv: kselftest for user mode cfi

Adds kselftest for RISC-V control flow integrity implementation for user
mode. There is not a lot going on in kernel for enabling landing pad for
user mode. Thus kselftest simply enables landing pad for the binary and
a signal handler is registered for SIGSEGV. Any control flow violation are
reported as SIGSEGV with si_code = SEGV_CPERR. Test will fail on recieving
any SEGV_CPERR. Shadow stack part has more changes in kernel and thus there
are separate tests for that
	- enable and disable
	- Exercise `map_shadow_stack` syscall
	- `fork` test to make sure COW works for shadow stack pages
	- gup tests
	  As of today kernel uses FOLL_FORCE when access happens to memory via
	  /proc/<pid>/mem. Not breaking that for shadow stack
	- signal test. Make sure signal delivery results in token creation on
      shadow stack and consumes (and verifies) token on sigreturn
    - shadow stack protection test. attempts to write using regular store
	  instruction on shadow stack memory must result in access faults
