From: Fares Mehanna faresx@amazon.de
In order to be resilient against cross-process speculation-based attacks, it makes sense to store certain (secret) items in kernel memory local to mm.
Implement such allocations on top of secretmem infrastructure.
Specifically, on allocate
1. Create secretmem file. 2. To distinguish it from the conventional memfd_secret()-created one and to maintain associated mm-local allocation context, put the latter on ->private_data of the file. 3. Create virtual mapping in user virtual address space using mmap(). 4. Seal the virtual mapping to disallow the user from affecting it in any way. 5. Fault the pages in, effectively calling secretmem fault handler to remove the pages from kernel linear address and make them local to process mm. 6. Change the PTE from user mode to kernel mode, any access from userspace will result in segmentation fault. Kernel can access this virtual address now. 7. Return the secure area as a struct containing the pointer to the actual memory and providing the context for the release function later.
On release,
- if called while mm is still in use, remove the mapping - otherwise, if performed at mm teardown, no unmapping is necessary
The rest is taken care of by secretmem file cleanup, including returning the pages to the kernel direct map.
