That's the case for other tests. > I think the code patching details are different between architectures and (for now) I am only comfortable enough with PPC to implement something meaningful. The intent of the RFC versions was to try to get some interest (hence the distribution to the hardening list) or feedback about how this could work on other architectures.

When live patching with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX, the CPU doing the patching must use a temporary mapping which allows for writing to kernel text. During the entire window of time when this temporary mapping is in use, another CPU could write to the same mapping and maliciously alter kernel text. Implement a LKDTM test to attempt to exploit such a openings when a CPU is patching under STRICT_KERNEL_RWX. The test is only implemented on powerpc for now. The LKDTM "hijack" test works as follows: 1. A CPU executes an infinite loop to patch an instruction. This is the "patching" CPU. 2. Another CPU attempts to write to the address of the temporary mapping used by the "patching" CPU. This other CPU is the "hijacker" CPU. The hijack either fails with a segfault or succeeds, in which case some kernel text is now overwritten. How to run the test: mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug (echo HIJACK_PATCH > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT) Signed-off-by: Christopher M.
