We currently have to rely on the GCC large code model for KASLR for
two distinct but related reasons:
- if we enable full randomization, modules will be loaded very far away
from the core kernel, where they are out of range for ADRP instructions,
- even without full randomization, the fact that the 128 MB module region
is now no longer fully reserved for kernel modules means that there is
a very low likelihood that the normal bottom-up allocation of other
vmalloc regions may collide, and use up the range for other things.
Large model code is suboptimal, given that each symbol reference involves
a literal load that goes through the D-cache, reducing cache utilization.
But more importantly, literals are not instructions but part of .text
nonetheless, and hence mapped with executable permissions.
So let's get rid of our dependency on the large model for KASLR, by:
- reducing the full randomization range to 4 GB, thereby ensuring that
ADRP references between modules and the kernel are always in range,
- reduce the spillover range to 4 GB as well, so that we fallback to a
region that is still guaranteed to be in range
- move the randomization window of the core kernel to the middle of the
VMALLOC space
Note that KASAN always uses the module region outside of the vmalloc space,
so keep the kernel close to that if KASAN is enabled.

Now that the early kernel mapping logic can tolerate placements of
Image that cross swapper table boundaries, we can remove the logic
that adjusts the offset if the dice roll produced an offset that
puts the kernel right on top of one.

With 16KB pages and a kernel Image larger than 16MB, the current
kaslr_early_init() logic for avoiding mappings across swapper table
boundaries fails since increasing the offset by kimg_sz just moves the
problem to the next boundary.
This patch rounds the offset down to (1 << SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT) if the
Image crosses a PMD_SIZE boundary.

In the KASLR setup routine, we ensure that the early virtual mapping
of the kernel image does not cover more than a single table entry at
the level above the swapper block level, so that the assembler routines
involved in setting up this mapping can remain simple.
In this calculation we add the proposed KASLR offset to the values of
the _text and _end markers, and reject it if they would end up falling
in different swapper table sized windows.
However, when taking the addresses of _text and _end, the modulo offset
(the physical displacement modulo 2 MB) is already accounted for, and
so adding it again results in incorrect results. So disregard the modulo
offset from the calculation.

In the flattened device tree format, all integer properties are
in big-endian order.
Here the property "kaslr-seed" is read from the fdt and then
correctly converted to native order (via fdt64_to_cpu()) but the
pointer used for this is not annotated as being for big-endian.
Fix this by declaring the pointer as fdt64_t instead of u64
(fdt64_t being itself typedefed to __be64).

If kernel image extends across alignment boundary, existing
code increases the KASLR offset by size of kernel image. The
offset is masked after resizing. There are cases, where after
masking, we may still have kernel image extending across
boundary. This eventually results in only 2MB block getting
mapped while creating the page tables. This results in data aborts
while accessing unmapped regions during second relocation (with
kaslr offset) in __primary_switch. To fix this problem, round up the
kernel image size, by swapper block size, before adding it for
correction.
For example consider below case, where kernel image still crosses
1GB alignment boundary, after masking the offset, which is fixed
by rounding up kernel image size.
SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 30
Swapper using section maps with section size 2MB.
CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS = 3
VA_BITS = 39
_text : 0xffffff8008080000
_end : 0xffffff800aa1b000
offset : 0x1f35600000
mask = ((1UL << (VA_BITS - 2)) - 1) & ~(SZ_2M - 1)
(_text + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7c
(_end + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7d
offset after existing correction (before mask) = 0x1f37f9b000
(_text + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7d
(_end + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7d
offset (after mask) = 0x1f37e00000
(_text + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7c
(_end + offset) >> SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT = 0x3fffffe7d
new offset w/ rounding up = 0x1f38000000

These objects are set during initialization, thereafter are read only.
Previously I only want to mark vdso_pages, vdso_spec, vectors_page and
cpu_ops as __read_mostly from performance point of view. Then inspired
by Kees's patch[1] to apply more __ro_after_init for arm, I think it's
better to mark them as __ro_after_init. What's more, I find some more
objects are also read only after init. So apply __ro_after_init to all
of them.
This patch also removes global vdso_pagelist and tries to clean up
vdso_spec[] assignment code.

When booting a relocatable kernel image, there is no practical reason
to refuse an image whose load address is not exactly TEXT_OFFSET bytes
above a 2 MB aligned base address, as long as the physical and virtual
misalignment with respect to the swapper block size are equal, and are
both aligned to THREAD_SIZE.
Since the virtual misalignment is under our control when we first enter
the kernel proper, we can simply choose its value to be equal to the
physical misalignment.
So treat the misalignment of the physical load address as the initial
KASLR offset, and fix up the remaining code to deal with that.

When KASLR is enabled (CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE=y), and entropy has been
provided by the bootloader, randomize the placement of RAM inside the
linear region if sufficient space is available. For instance, on a 4KB
granule/3 levels kernel, the linear region is 256 GB in size, and we can
choose any 1 GB aligned offset that is far enough from the top of the
address space to fit the distance between the start of the lowest memblock
and the top of the highest memblock.

This adds support for KASLR is implemented, based on entropy provided by
the bootloader in the /chosen/kaslr-seed DT property. Depending on the size
of the address space (VA_BITS) and the page size, the entropy in the
virtual displacement is up to 13 bits (16k/2 levels) and up to 25 bits (all
4 levels), with the sidenote that displacements that result in the kernel
image straddling a 1GB/32MB/512MB alignment boundary (for 4KB/16KB/64KB
granule kernels, respectively) are not allowed, and will be rounded up to
an acceptable value.
If CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL is enabled, the module region is
randomized independently from the core kernel. This makes it less likely
that the location of core kernel data structures can be determined by an
adversary, but causes all function calls from modules into the core kernel
to be resolved via entries in the module PLTs.
If CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL is not enabled, the module region is
randomized by choosing a page aligned 128 MB region inside the interval
[_etext - 128 MB, _stext + 128 MB). This gives between 10 and 14 bits of
entropy (depending on page size), independently of the kernel randomization,
but still guarantees that modules are within the range of relative branch
and jump instructions (with the caveat that, since the module region is
shared with other uses of the vmalloc area, modules may need to be loaded
further away if the module region is exhausted)
