[PATCH] arm: fix text section corruption

From: Ji.Zhang <hidden>
Date: 2017-10-25 09:17:30
Also in: linux-mediatek

Dear All sirs,

Is there any suggestion for this patch?

Since we have found that this issue can be reproduced with high repeat
ratio by some fuzzer tests, we strongly suggest it can be fixed in next
kernel version.

Thanks a lot.

Ji

When CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN is enabled, there are 9 registers being
pushed into stack in save_regs, but in fixup it still consider there are
8 registers in stack, which is the case of CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN
disabled.
When fixup being executed, -EFAULT will be written to the text section.

In fixup:
mov	r4, #-EFAULT
/*
 * When CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN enabled, r5 will load the value stored by
 * lr in save_regs, which is the address of instruction in text section.
 */
ldr	r5, [sp,#8*4]	@err_ptr
/*
 * This will write -EFAULT(0xfffffff2) to r5, which points to text section
 * now, and when function returns, it will use 0xfffffff2 as an
 * instruction, then undefined instruction occurs.
 */
str	r4, [r5]
