Merge "Prevent speculative execution past ERET" into integration


# f461fe34 07-Jan-2020 Anthony Steinhauser <asteinhauser@google.com>

Prevent speculative execution past ERET

Even though ERET always causes a jump to another address, aarch64 CPUs
speculatively execute following instructions as if the ERET
instruction was not a jump

Prevent speculative execution past ERET

Even though ERET always causes a jump to another address, aarch64 CPUs
speculatively execute following instructions as if the ERET
instruction was not a jump instruction.
The speculative execution does not cross privilege-levels (to the jump
target as one would expect), but it continues on the kernel privilege
level as if the ERET instruction did not change the control flow -
thus execution anything that is accidentally linked after the ERET
instruction. Later, the results of this speculative execution are
always architecturally discarded, however they can leak data using
microarchitectural side channels. This speculative execution is very
reliable (seems to be unconditional) and it manages to complete even
relatively performance-heavy operations (e.g. multiple dependent
fetches from uncached memory).

This was fixed in Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Optee OS:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/679db70801da9fda91d26caf13bf5b5ccc74e8e8
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/commit/29fb48ace4186a41c409fde52bcf4216e9e50b61
https://github.com/openbsd/src/commit/3a08873ece1cb28ace89fd65e8f3c1375cc98de2
https://github.com/OP-TEE/optee_os/commit/abfd092aa19f9c0251e3d5551e2d68a9ebcfec8a

It is demonstrated in a SafeSide example:

Sanitise includes across codebase

Enforce full include path for includes. Deprecate old paths.

The following folders inside include/lib have been left unchanged:

- include/lib/cpus/${ARCH}
- include/lib/el3_runtime/${ARCH}

The reason for this change is that having a global namespace for
includes isn't a good idea. It defeats one of the advantages of having
folders and it introduces problems that are sometimes subtle (because
you may not know the header you are actually including if there are two
of them).

For example, this patch had to be created because two headers were
called the same way: e0ea0928d5b7 ("Fix gpio includes of mt8173 platform
to avoid collision."). More recently, this patch has had similar
problems: 46f9b2c3a282 ("drivers: add tzc380 support").

This problem was introduced in commit 4ecca33988b9 ("Move include and
source files to logical locations"). At that time, there weren't too
many headers so it wasn't a real issue. However, time has shown that
this creates problems.

Platforms that want to preserve the way they include headers may add the
removed paths to PLAT_INCLUDES, but this is discouraged.

Fix x30 reporting for unhandled exceptions

Some error paths that lead to a crash dump will overwrite the value in
the x30 register by calling functions with the no_ret macro, which
resolves to a BL instruction. This is not very useful and not what the
reader would expect, since a crash dump should usually show all
registers in the state they were in when the exception happened. This
patch replaces the offending function calls with a B instruction to
preserve the value in x30.

Define and use no_ret macro where no return is expected

There are many instances in ARM Trusted Firmware where control is
transferred to functions from which return isn't expected. Such jumps
are made using 'bl' instruction to provide the callee with the location
from which it was jumped to. Additionally, debuggers infer the caller by
examining where 'lr' register points to. If a 'bl' of the nature
described above falls at the end of an assembly function, 'lr' will be
left pointing to a location outside of the function range. This misleads
the debugger back trace.

This patch defines a 'no_ret' macro to be used when jumping to functions
from which return isn't expected. The macro ensures to use 'bl'
instruction for the jump, and also, for debug builds, places a 'nop'
instruction immediately thereafter (unless instructed otherwise) so as
to leave 'lr' pointing within the function range.

the exception code has been updated to make use of these macros.

This patch also updates some invalid comments in the exception

Added a new platform porting function plat_panic_handler, to allow
platforms to handle unexpected error situations. It must be

is initialized. A default implementation is provided, which simply
spins.

Corrected all dead loops in generic code to call this function
instead. This includes the dead loop that occurs at the end of the
call to panic().

Enable use of FIQs and IRQs as TSP interrupts

On a GICv2 system, interrupts that should be handled in the secure world are
typically signalled as FIQs. On a GICv3 system, these interrupts are signalled
as IRQs instead. The mechanism for handling both types of interrupts is the same
in both cases. This patch enables the TSP to run on a GICv3 system by:

1. adding support for handling IRQs in the exception handling code.
2. removing use of "fiq" in the names of data structures, macros and functions.

The build option TSPD_ROUTE_IRQ_TO_EL3 is deprecated and is replaced with a
new build flag TSP_NS_INTR_ASYNC_PREEMPT. For compatibility reasons, if the
former build flag is defined, it will be used to define the value for the
new build flag. The documentation is also updated accordingly.

Unify interrupt return paths from TSP into the TSPD

The TSP is expected to pass control back to EL3 if it gets preempted due to
an interrupt while handling a Standard SMC in the following scenarios:

1. An FIQ preempts Standard SMC execution and that FIQ is not a TSP Secure
timer interrupt or is preempted by a higher priority interrupt by the time
the TSP acknowledges it. In this case, the TSP issues an SMC with the ID
as `TSP_EL3_FIQ`. Currently this case is never expected to happen as only
the TSP Secure Timer is expected to generate FIQ.

2. An IRQ preempts Standard SMC execution and in this case the TSP issues
an SMC with the ID as `TSP_PREEMPTED`.

In both the cases, the TSPD hands control back to the normal world and returns
returns an error code to the normal world to indicate that the standard SMC it
had issued has been preempted but not completed.

This patch unifies the handling of these two cases in the TSPD and ensures that
the TSP only uses TSP_PREEMPTED instead of separate SMC IDs. Also instead of 2
separate error codes, SMC_PREEMPTED and TSP_EL3_FIQ, only SMC_PREEMPTED is
returned as error code back to the normal world.

Background information: On a GICv3 system, when the secure world has affinity
routing enabled, in 2. an FIQ will preempt TSP execution instead of an IRQ. The
FIQ could be a result of a Group 0 or a Group 1 NS interrupt. In both case, the
TSPD passes control back to the normal world upon receipt of the TSP_PREEMPTED
SMC. A Group 0 interrupt will immediately preempt execution to EL3 where it
will be handled. This allows for unified interrupt handling in TSP for both
GICv3 and GICv2 systems.

Unmask SError interrupt and clear SCR_EL3.EA bit

This patch disables routing of external aborts from lower exception levels to
EL3 and ensures that a SError interrupt generated as a result of execution in
EL3 is taken locally instead of a lower exception level.

The SError interrupt is enabled in the TSP code only when the operation has not
been directly initiated by the normal world. This is to prevent the possibility
of an asynchronous external abort which originated in normal world from being
taken when execution is in S-EL1.
