x86,static_call: Use alternative RET encoding
In addition to teaching static_call about the new way to spell 'RET', there is an added complication in that static_call() is allowed to rewrite text before it is known which particular spelling is required. In order to deal with this; have a static_call specific fixup in the apply_return() 'alternative' patching routine that will rewrite the static_call trampoline to match the definite sequence. This in turn creates the problem of uniquely identifying static call trampolines. Currently trampolines are 8 bytes, the first 5 being the jmp.d32/ret sequence and the final 3 a byte sequence that spells out 'SCT'. This sequence is used in __static_call_validate() to ensure it is patching a trampoline and not a random other jmp.d32. That is, false-positives shouldn't be plenty, but aren't a big concern. OTOH the new __static_call_fixup() must not have false-positives, and 'SCT' decodes to the somewhat weird but semi plausible sequence: push %rbx rex.XB push %r12 Additionally, there are SLS concerns with immediate jumps. Combined it seems like a good moment to change the signature to a single 3 byte trap instruction that is unique to this usage and will not ever get generated by accident. As such, change the signature to: '0x0f, 0xb9, 0xcc', which decodes to: ud1 %esp, %ecx Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>
