Signed-off-by: Vincenzo Frascino Co-developed-by: Catalin Marinas Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas Acked-by: Szabolcs Nagy Cc: Will Deacon --- Notes: v7: - Add information on ptrace() regset access (NT_ARM_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL). v4: - Document behaviour of madvise(MADV_DONTNEED/MADV_FREE). - Document the initial process state on fork/execve. - Clarify when the kernel uaccess checks the tags. - Minor updates to the example code. - A few other minor clean-ups following review. v3: - Modify the uaccess checking conditions: only when the sync mode is selected by the user. In async mode, the kernel uaccesses are not checked. - Clarify that an include mask of 0 (exclude mask 0xffff) results in always generating tag 0. - Document the ptrace() interface. v2: - Documented the uaccess kernel tag checking mode. - Removed the BTI definitions from cpu-feature-registers.rst. - Removed the paragraph stating that MTE depends on the tagged address ABI (while the Kconfig entry does, there is no requirement for the user to enable both). - Changed the GCR_EL1.Exclude handling description following the change in the prctl() interface (include vs exclude mask). - Updated the example code.

MTE is built on top of the ARMv8.0 virtual address tagging TBI +(Top Byte Ignore) feature and allows software to access a 4-bit +allocation tag for each 16-byte granule in the physical address space. +Such memory range must be mapped with the Normal-Tagged memory +attribute. A logical tag is derived from bits 59-56 of the virtual +address used for the memory access. A CPU with MTE enabled will compare +the logical tag against the allocation tag and potentially raise an +exception on mismatch, subject to system registers configuration. + +Userspace Support +================= + +When ``CONFIG_ARM64_MTE`` is selected and Memory Tagging Extension is +supported by the hardware, the kernel advertises the feature to +userspace via ``HWCAP2_MTE``. + +PROT_MTE +-------- + +To access the allocation tags, a user process must enable the Tagged +memory attribute on an address range using a new ``prot`` flag for +``mmap()`` and ``mprotect()``: + +``PROT_MTE`` - Pages allow access to the MTE allocation tags. + +The allocation tag is set to 0 when such pages are first mapped in the +user address space and preserved on copy-on-write. ``MAP_SHARED`` is +supported and the allocation tags can be shared between processes. + +**Note**: ``PROT_MTE`` is only supported on ``MAP_ANONYMOUS`` and +RAM-based file mappings (``tmpfs``, ``memfd``). Passing it to other +types of mapping will result in ``-EINVAL`` returned by these system +calls. + +**Note**: The ``PROT_MTE`` flag (and corresponding memory type) cannot +be cleared by ``mprotect()``. + +**Note**: ``madvise()`` memory ranges with ``MADV_DONTNEED`` and +``MADV_FREE`` may have the allocation tags cleared (set to 0) at any +point after the system call. + +Tag Check Faults +---------------- + +When ``PROT_MTE`` is enabled on an address range and a mismatch between +the logical and allocation tags occurs on access, there are three +configurable behaviours: + +- *Ignore* - This is the default mode. The CPU (and kernel) ignores the + tag check fault. + +- *Synchronous* - The kernel raises a ``SIGSEGV`` synchronously, with + ``.si_code = SEGV_MTESERR`` and ``.si_addr = ``. The + memory access is not performed. If ``SIGSEGV`` is ignored or blocked + by the offending thread, the containing process is terminated with a + ``coredump``. + +- *Asynchronous* - The kernel raises a ``SIGSEGV``, in the offending + thread, asynchronously following one or multiple tag check faults, + with ``.si_code = SEGV_MTEAERR`` and ``.si_addr = 0`` (the faulting + address is unknown). + +The user can select the above modes, per thread, using the +``prctl(PR_SET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL, flags, 0, 0, 0)`` system call where +``flags`` contain one of the following values in the ``PR_MTE_TCF_MASK`` +bit-field: + +- ``PR_MTE_TCF_NONE`` - *Ignore* tag check faults +- ``PR_MTE_TCF_SYNC`` - *Synchronous* tag check fault mode +- ``PR_MTE_TCF_ASYNC`` - *Asynchronous* tag check fault mode + +The current tag check fault mode can be read using the +``prctl(PR_GET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL, 0, 0, 0, 0)`` system call. + +Tag checking can also be disabled for a user thread by setting the +``PSTATE.TCO`` bit with ``MSR TCO, #1``. + +**Note**: Signal handlers are always invoked with ``PSTATE.TCO = 0``, +irrespective of the interrupted context. ``PSTATE.TCO`` is restored on +``sigreturn()``. + +**Note**: There are no *match-all* logical tags available for user +applications. + +**Note**: Kernel accesses to the user address space (e.g. ``read()`` +system call) are not checked if the user thread tag checking mode is +``PR_MTE_TCF_NONE`` or ``PR_MTE_TCF_ASYNC``. If the tag checking mode is +``PR_MTE_TCF_SYNC``, the kernel makes a best effort to check its user +address accesses, however it cannot always guarantee it. + +Excluding Tags in the ``IRG``, ``ADDG`` and ``SUBG`` instructions +----------------------------------------------------------------- + +The architecture allows excluding certain tags to be randomly generated +via the ``GCR_EL1.Exclude`` register bit-field. By default, Linux +excludes all tags other than 0. A user thread can enable specific tags +in the randomly generated set using the ``prctl(PR_SET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL, +flags, 0, 0, 0)`` system call where ``flags`` contains the tags bitmap +in the ``PR_MTE_TAG_MASK`` bit-field. + +**Note**: The hardware uses an exclude mask but the ``prctl()`` +interface provides an include mask. An include mask of ``0`` (exclusion +mask ``0xffff``) results in the CPU always generating tag ``0``. + +Initial process state +--------------------- + +On ``execve()``, the new process has the following configuration: + +- ``PR_TAGGED_ADDR_ENABLE`` set to 0 (disabled) +- Tag checking mode set to ``PR_MTE_TCF_NONE`` +- ``PR_MTE_TAG_MASK`` set to 0 (all tags excluded) +- ``PSTATE.TCO`` set to 0 +- ``PROT_MTE`` not set on any of the initial memory maps + +On ``fork()``, the new process inherits the parent's configuration and +memory map attributes with the exception of the ``madvise()`` ranges +with ``MADV_WIPEONFORK`` which will have the data and tags cleared (set +to 0). + +The ``ptrace()`` interface +-------------------------- + +``PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS`` and ``PTRACE_POKEMTETAGS`` allow a tracer to read +the tags from or set the tags to a tracee's address space. The +``ptrace()`` system call is invoked as ``ptrace(request, pid, addr, +data)`` where: + +- ``request`` - one of ``PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS`` or ``PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS``. +- ``pid`` - the tracee's PID. +- ``addr`` - address in the tracee's address space. +- ``data`` - pointer to a ``struct iovec`` where ``iov_base`` points to + a buffer of ``iov_len`` length in the tracer's address space. + +The tags in the tracer's ``iov_base`` buffer are represented as one +4-bit tag per byte and correspond to a 16-byte MTE tag granule in the +tracee's address space. + +**Note**: If ``addr`` is not aligned to a 16-byte granule, the kernel +will use the corresponding aligned address. + +``ptrace()`` return value: + +- 0 - tags were copied, the tracer's ``iov_len`` was updated to the + number of tags transferred. This may be smaller than the requested + ``iov_len`` if the requested address range in the tracee's or the + tracer's space cannot be accessed or does not have valid tags. +- ``-EPERM`` - the specified process cannot be traced. +- ``-EIO`` - the tracee's address range cannot be accessed (e.g. invalid + address) and no tags copied. ``iov_len`` not updated. +- ``-EFAULT`` - fault on accessing the tracer's memory (``struct iovec`` + or ``iov_base`` buffer) and no tags copied. ``iov_len`` not updated. +- ``-EOPNOTSUPP`` - the tracee's address does not have valid tags (never + mapped with the ``PROT_MTE`` flag). ``iov_len`` not updated. + +**Note**: There are no transient errors for the requests above, so user +programs should not retry in case of a non-zero system call return. + +``PTRACE_GETREGSET`` and ``PTRACE_SETREGSET`` with ``addr == +``NT_ARM_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL`` allow ``ptrace()`` access to the tagged +address ABI control and MTE configuration of a process as per the +``prctl()`` options described in +Documentation/arm64/tagged-address-abi.rst and above.
