Details

Summary

Previously, RISC-V was enabling execute permissions in PTEs for any
readable page. Now, execute permissions are only enabled if they
were explicitly specified (e.g. via PROT_EXEC to mmap). The one
exception is that the initial kernel mapping in locore still maps all
of the kernel RWX.

While here, change the fault type passed to vm_fault and pmap_fault_fixup
to only include a single VM_PROT_* value representing the faulting access
to match other architectures rather than passing a bitmask.

Test Plan
  • booted under qemu and then used kgdb to examine PTE permissions

Event Timeline

The testing bit needs more detail but wanted to post that in a followup comment. I used the 'pmap_dump_perms' gdb script from https://github.com/bsdjhb/kdbg/blob/master/gdb/gdb6.riscv to example both the user and kernel page tables for a process. First, here is the user memory map for that process:

For kernel, I had loaded a single kernel module to make sure the module was executable:

# kldstat 
Id Refs Address                Size Name
 1    3 0xffffffc000000000   716740 kernel
 2    1 0xffffffc0013a1000     3000 nmdm.ko

Here then is an annotated dump of the page table permissions. I've annotated all the places that had execute permission set:

The page table dump does suggest some additional followup work. I've looked at exec_map and pipe_map and they are mapped RWX on all architectures. They shouldn't ever require X permission though, and that's an MI change to fix. We should figure out what is needed to use non-executable stacks on riscv though.

This diff seems to do the trick: https://people.freebsd.org/~markj/patches/pipe_exec_rw.diff

Yes, that diff looks correct to me. I haven't tested it at all though. :)
