Commit Message

Recently arm64 linux kernel added support for Armv8.3-A Pointer
Authentication feature. If this feature is enabled in the kernel and the
hardware supports address authentication then the return addresses are
signed and stored in the stack to prevent ROP kind of attack. Kdump tool
will now dump the kernel with signed lr values in the stack.

Any user analysis tool for this kernel dump may need the kernel pac mask
information in vmcoreinfo to generate the correct return address for
stacktrace purpose as well as to resolve the symbol name.

This patch is similar to commit ec6e822d1a22d0eef ("arm64: expose user PAC
bit positions via ptrace") which exposes pac mask information via ptrace
interfaces.

Changes since v1:
* Rebased to kernel 5.7-rc3.
* commit log change.

An implementation of this new KERNELPACMASK vmcoreinfo field used by crash
tool can be found here[1]. This change is accepted by crash utility
maintainer [2].

This patch user side changes are accepted by crash-utility maintainer [1]
so I think this is in a good shape to go in.

This doesn't look quite right to me, since you still have to take into
account the case where CONFIG_ARM64_PTR_AUTH=y but the feature is not
available at runtime:

In which case, would it make more sense to define
ptrauth_{kernel,user}_pac_mask() unconditionally? In fact, I'd probably
just remove the guards completely from asm/compiler.h because I think
they're misleading.

Yes agree with you here. However the config gaurd is saving some extra
computation for __builtin_return_address. There are some compiler
support being added in __builtin_extract_return_address to mask the PAC.
Hopefully that will improve this code. In the meantime let it be like this.

I can remove this else case and as other users of
ptrauth_{kernel,user}_pac_mask(ptrace.c) protect it with a config gaurd
there.

As answered above. Let me know your opinion. Although I don't have 
strong reservation in keeping the config gaurd.

Does the extra computation matter? Isn't it just a couple of instructions?
