2026-04-05mm: rename zap_vma_ptes() to zap_special_vma_range()David Hildenbrand (Arm)1-1/+1
zap_vma_ptes() is the only zapping function we export to modules. It's essentially a wrapper around zap_vma_range(), however, with some safety checks: * That the passed range fits fully into the VMA * That it's only used for VM_PFNMAP We will add support for VM_MIXEDMAP next, so use the more-generic term "special vma", although "special" is a bit overloaded. Maybe we'll later just support any VM_SPECIAL flag. While at it, improve the kerneldoc.

2026-02-21Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL argumentsLinus Torvalds1-2/+1
This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2026-02-21Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentLinus Torvalds4-5/+5
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' | xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/' to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL argument to just drop that argument. Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered: they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically. For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate conversion. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2026-02-21treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar typesKees Cook5-6/+7
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org>

2025-11-16mm: consistently use current->mm in mm_get_unmapped_area()Ryan Roberts1-1/+1
mm_get_unmapped_area() is a wrapper around arch_get_unmapped_area() / arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown(), both of which search current->mm for some free space. Neither take an mm_struct - they implicitly operate on current->mm. But the wrapper takes an mm_struct and uses it to decide whether to search bottom up or top down. All callers pass in current->mm for this, so everything is working consistently. But it feels like an accident waiting to happen; eventually someone will call that function with a different mm, expecting to find free space in it, but what gets returned is free space in the current mm. So let's simplify by removing the parameter and have the wrapper use current->mm to decide which end to start at. Now everything is consistent and self-documenting.

2025-10-16x86/sgx: Enable automatic SVN updates for SGX enclavesElena Reshetova1-2/+18
== Background == ENCLS[EUPDATESVN] is a new SGX instruction [1] which allows enclave attestation to include information about updated microcode SVN without a reboot. Before an EUPDATESVN operation can be successful, all SGX memory (aka. EPC) must be marked as “unused” in the SGX hardware metadata (aka.EPCM). This requirement ensures that no compromised enclave can survive the EUPDATESVN procedure and provides an opportunity to generate new cryptographic assets. == Solution == Attempt to execute ENCLS[EUPDATESVN] every time the first file descriptor is obtained via sgx_(vepc_)open(). In the most common case the microcode SVN is already up-to-date, and the operation succeeds without updating SVN. Note: while in such cases the underlying crypto assets are regenerated, it does not affect enclaves' visible keys obtained via EGETKEY instruction. If it fails with any other error code than SGX_INSUFFICIENT_ENTROPY, this is considered unexpected and the *open() returns an error. This should not happen in practice. On contrary, SGX_INSUFFICIENT_ENTROPY might happen due to a pressure on the system's DRNG (RDSEED) and therefore the *open() can be safely retried to allow normal enclave operation.

2025-10-16x86/sgx: Implement ENCLS[EUPDATESVN]Elena Reshetova2-0/+80
All running enclaves and cryptographic assets (such as internal SGX encryption keys) are assumed to be compromised whenever an SGX-related microcode update occurs. To mitigate this assumed compromise the new supervisor SGX instruction ENCLS[EUPDATESVN] can generate fresh cryptographic assets. Before executing EUPDATESVN, all SGX memory must be marked as unused. This requirement ensures that no potentially compromised enclave survives the update and allows the system to safely regenerate cryptographic assets. Add the method to perform ENCLS[EUPDATESVN]. However, until the follow up patch that wires calling sgx_update_svn() from sgx_inc_usage_count(), this code is not reachable.

2025-10-16x86/sgx: Introduce functions to count the sgx_(vepc_)open()Elena Reshetova5-2/+51
Currently, when SGX is compromised and the microcode update fix is applied, the machine needs to be rebooted to invalidate old SGX crypto-assets and make SGX be in an updated safe state. It's not friendly for the cloud. To avoid having to reboot, a new ENCLS[EUPDATESVN] is introduced to update SGX environment at runtime. This process needs to be done when there's no SGX users to make sure no compromised enclaves can survive from the update and allow the system to regenerate crypto-assets. For now there's no counter to track the active SGX users of host enclave and virtual EPC. Introduce such counter mechanism so that the EUPDATESVN can be done only when there's no SGX users. Define placeholder functions sgx_inc/dec_usage_count() that are used to increment and decrement such a counter. Also, wire the call sites for these functions. Encapsulate the current sgx_(vepc_)open() to __sgx_(vepc_)open() to make the new sgx_(vepc_)open() easy to read. The definition of the counter itself and the actual implementation of sgx_inc/dec_usage_count() functions come next. Note: The EUPDATESVN, which may fail, will be done in sgx_inc_usage_count(). Make it return 'int' to make subsequent patches which implement EUPDATESVN easier to review. For now it always returns success.

The first one is a no-brainer to use the (simple) SHA-256 library. For the second one, some folks doing testing noticed that SGX systems under memory pressure were inducing fatal machine checks at pretty unnerving rates, despite the SGX code having _some_ awareness of memory poison. It turns out that the SGX reclaim path was not checking for poison _and_ it always accesses memory to copy it around.

2025-05-15x86/sgx: Prevent attempts to reclaim poisoned pagesAndrew Zaborowski1-0/+2
TL;DR: SGX page reclaim touches the page to copy its contents to secondary storage. SGX instructions do not gracefully handle machine checks. Despite this, the existing SGX code will try to reclaim pages that it _knows_ are poisoned. Avoid even trying to reclaim poisoned pages. The longer story: Pages used by an enclave only get epc_page->poison set in arch_memory_failure() but they currently stay on sgx_active_page_list until sgx_encl_release(), with the SGX_EPC_PAGE_RECLAIMER_TRACKED flag untouched. epc_page->poison is not checked in the reclaimer logic meaning that, if other conditions are met, an attempt will be made to reclaim an EPC page that was poisoned. This is bad because 1. we don't want that page to end up added to another enclave and 2. it is likely to cause one core to shut down and the kernel to panic. Specifically, reclaiming uses microcode operations including "EWB" which accesses the EPC page contents to encrypt and write them out to non-SGX memory. Those operations cannot handle MCEs in their accesses other than by putting the executing core into a special shutdown state (affecting both threads with HT.) The kernel will subsequently panic on the remaining cores seeing the core didn't enter MCE handler(s) in time. Call sgx_unmark_page_reclaimable() to remove the affected EPC page from sgx_active_page_list on memory error to stop it being considered for reclaiming. Testing epc_page->poison in sgx_reclaim_pages() would also work but I assume it's better to add code in the less likely paths. The affected EPC page is not added to &node->sgx_poison_page_list until later in sgx_encl_release()->sgx_free_epc_page() when it is EREMOVEd. Membership on other lists doesn't change to avoid changing any of the lists' semantics except for sgx_active_page_list. There's a "TBD" comment in arch_memory_failure() about pre-emptive actions, the goal here is not to address everything that it may imply. This also doesn't completely close the time window when a memory error notification will be fatal (for a not previously poisoned EPC page) -- the MCE can happen after sgx_reclaim_pages() has selected its candidates or even *inside* a microcode operation (actually easy to trigger due to the amount of time spent in them.) The spinlock in sgx_unmark_page_reclaimable() is safe because memory_failure() runs in process context and no spinlocks are held, explicitly noted in a mm/memory-failure.c comment.

2025-03-10x86/sgx: Warn explicitly if X86_FEATURE_SGX_LC is not enabledVladis Dronov1-3/+7
The kernel requires X86_FEATURE_SGX_LC to be able to create SGX enclaves, not just X86_FEATURE_SGX. There is quite a number of hardware which has X86_FEATURE_SGX but not X86_FEATURE_SGX_LC. A kernel running on such hardware does not create the /dev/sgx_enclave file and does so silently. Explicitly warn if X86_FEATURE_SGX_LC is not enabled to properly notify users that the kernel disabled the SGX driver. The X86_FEATURE_SGX_LC, a.k.a. SGX Launch Control, is a CPU feature that enables LE (Launch Enclave) hash MSRs to be writable (with additional opt-in required in the 'feature control' MSR) when running enclaves, i.e. using a custom root key rather than the Intel proprietary key for enclave signing. I've hit this issue myself and have spent some time researching where my /dev/sgx_enclave file went on SGX-enabled hardware.

2025-03-05x86/sgx: Fix size overflows in sgx_encl_create()Jarkko Sakkinen1-0/+7
The total size calculated for EPC can overflow u64 given the added up page for SECS. Further, the total size calculated for shmem can overflow even when the EPC size stays within limits of u64, given that it adds the extra space for 128 byte PCMD structures (one for each page). Address this by pre-evaluating the micro-architectural requirement of SGX: the address space size must be power of two. This is eventually checked up by ECREATE but the pre-check has the additional benefit of making sure that there is some space for additional data.

2024-09-05x86/sgx: Log information when a node lacks an EPC sectionAaron Lu1-0/+7
For optimized performance, firmware typically distributes EPC sections evenly across different NUMA nodes. However, there are scenarios where a node may have both CPUs and memory but no EPC section configured. For example, in an 8-socket system with a Sub-Numa-Cluster=2 setup, there are a total of 16 nodes. Given that the maximum number of supported EPC sections is 8, it is simply not feasible to assign one EPC section to each node. This configuration is not incorrect - SGX will still operate correctly; it is just not optimized from a NUMA standpoint. For this reason, log a message when a node with both CPUs and memory lacks an EPC section. This will provide users with a hint as to why they might be experiencing less-than-ideal performance when running SGX enclaves.

2024-09-05x86/sgx: Fix deadlock in SGX NUMA node searchAaron Lu1-13/+14
When the current node doesn't have an EPC section configured by firmware and all other EPC sections are used up, CPU can get stuck inside the while loop that looks for an available EPC page from remote nodes indefinitely, leading to a soft lockup. Note how nid_of_current will never be equal to nid in that while loop because nid_of_current is not set in sgx_numa_mask. Also worth mentioning is that it's perfectly fine for the firmware not to setup an EPC section on a node. While setting up an EPC section on each node can enhance performance, it is not a requirement for functionality. Rework the loop to start and end on *a* node that has SGX memory. This avoids the deadlock looking for the current SGX-lacking node to show up in the loop when it never will.

2024-08-12introduce fd_file(), convert all accessors to it.Al Viro1-2/+2
For any changes of struct fd representation we need to turn existing accesses to fields into calls of wrappers. Accesses to struct fd::flags are very few (3 in linux/file.h, 1 in net/socket.c, 3 in fs/overlayfs/file.c and 3 more in explicit initializers). Those can be dealt with in the commit converting to new layout; accesses to struct fd::file are too many for that. This commit converts (almost) all of f.file to fd_file(f). It's not entirely mechanical ('file' is used as a member name more than just in struct fd) and it does not even attempt to distinguish the uses in pointer context from those in boolean context; the latter will be eventually turned into a separate helper (fd_empty()). NOTE: mass conversion to fd_empty(), tempting as it might be, is a bad idea; better do that piecewise in commit that convert from fdget...() to CLASS(...).

2024-04-25mm: switch mm->get_unmapped_area() to a flagRick Edgecombe1-1/+1
The mm_struct contains a function pointer *get_unmapped_area(), which is set to either arch_get_unmapped_area() or arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() during the initialization of the mm. Since the function pointer only ever points to two functions that are named the same across all arch's, a function pointer is not really required. In addition future changes will want to add versions of the functions that take additional arguments. So to save a pointers worth of bytes in mm_struct, and prevent adding additional function pointers to mm_struct in future changes, remove it and keep the information about which get_unmapped_area() to use in a flag. Add the new flag to MMF_INIT_MASK so it doesn't get clobbered on fork by mmf_init_flags(). Most MM flags get clobbered on fork. In the pre-existing behavior mm->get_unmapped_area() would get copied to the new mm in dup_mm(), so not clobbering the flag preserves the existing behavior around inheriting the topdown-ness. Introduce a helper, mm_get_unmapped_area(), to easily convert code that refers to the old function pointer to instead select and call either arch_get_unmapped_area() or arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() based on the flag. Then drop the mm->get_unmapped_area() function pointer. Leave the get_unmapped_area() pointer in struct file_operations alone. The main purpose of this change is to reorganize in preparation for future changes, but it also converts the calls of mm->get_unmapped_area() from indirect branches into a direct ones. The stress-ng bigheap benchmark calls realloc a lot, which calls through get_unmapped_area() in the kernel. On x86, the change yielded a ~1% improvement there on a retpoline config. In testing a few x86 configs, removing the pointer unfortunately didn't result in any actual size reductions in the compiled layout of mm_struct. But depending on compiler or arch alignment requirements, the change could shrink the size of mm_struct.
