From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.ibm.com>

Introduce "memfd_secret" system call with the ability to create memory
areas visible only in the context of the owning process and not mapped not
only to other processes but in the kernel page tables as well.

The secretmem feature is off by default and the user must explicitly enable
it at the boot time.

Once secretmem is enabled, the user will be able to create a file
descriptor using the memfd_secret() system call. The memory areas created
by mmap() calls from this file descriptor will be unmapped from the kernel
direct map and they will be only mapped in the page table of the processes
that have access to the file descriptor.

The file descriptor based memory has several advantages over the
"traditional" mm interfaces, such as mlock(), mprotect(), madvise(). File
descriptor approach allows explict and controlled sharing of the memory
areas, it allows to seal the operations. Besides, file descriptor based
memory paves the way for VMMs to remove the secret memory range from the
userpace hipervisor process, for instance QEMU. Andy Lutomirski says:

  "Getting fd-backed memory into a guest will take some possibly major work
   in the kernel, but getting vma-backed memory into a guest without
   mapping it in the host user address space seems much, much worse."

memfd_secret() is made a dedicated system call rather than an extention to
memfd_create() because it's purpose is to allow the user to create more
secure memory mappings rather than to simply allow file based access to the
memory. Nowadays a new system call cost is negligible while it is way
simpler for userspace to deal with a clear-cut system calls than with a
multiplexer or an overloaded syscall. Moreover, the initial implementation
of memfd_secret() is completely distinct from memfd_create() so there is no
much sense in overloading memfd_create() to begin with. If there will be a
need for code sharing between these implementation it can be easily
achieved without a need to adjust user visible APIs.

The secret memory remains accessible in the process context using uaccess
primitives, but it is not exposed to the kernel otherwise; secret memory
areas are removed from the direct map and functions in the
follow_page()/get_user_page() family will refuse to return a page that
belongs to the secret memory area.

Once there will be a use case that will require exposing secretmem to the
kernel it will be an opt-in request in the system call flags so that user
would have to decide what data can be exposed to the kernel.

Removing of the pages from the direct map may cause its fragmentation on
architectures that use large pages to map the physical memory which affects
the system performance. However, the original Kconfig text for
CONFIG_DIRECT_GBPAGES said that gigabyte pages in the direct map "... can
improve the kernel's performance a tiny bit ..." (commit 00d1c5e05736
("x86: add gbpages switches")) and the recent report [1] showed that "...
although 1G mappings are a good default choice, there is no compelling
evidence that it must be the only choice". Hence, it is sufficient to have
secretmem disabled by default with the ability of a system administrator to
enable it at boot time.

Pages in the secretmem regions are unevictable and unmovable to avoid
accidental exposure of the sensitive data via swap or during page
migration.

Since the secretmem mappings are locked in memory they cannot exceed
RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. Since these mappings are already locked independently from
mlock(), an attempt to mlock()/munlock() secretmem range would fail and
mlockall()/munlockall() will ignore secretmem mappings.

However, unlike mlock()ed memory, secretmem currently behaves more like
long-term GUP: secretmem mappings are unmovable mappings directly consumed
by user space. With default limits, there is no excessive use of secretmem
and it poses no real problem in combination with ZONE_MOVABLE/CMA, but in
the future this should be addressed to allow balanced use of large amounts
of secretmem along with ZONE_MOVABLE/CMA.

A page that was a part of the secret memory area is cleared when it is
freed to ensure the data is not exposed to the next user of that page.

The following example demonstrates creation of a secret mapping (error
handling is omitted):

	fd = memfd_secret(0);
	ftruncate(fd, MAP_SIZE);
	ptr = mmap(NULL, MAP_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
		   MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);

1. The memmap might be garbage. You should use pfn_to_online_page() instead.

page = pfn_to_online_page(pfn);
if (page && page_is_secretmem(page))
	return 0;

2. What about !CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM?

3. Someone could map physical memory before a secretmem page gets 
allocated and read the content after it got allocated and gets used. If 
someone would gain root privileges and would wait for the target 
application to (re)start, that could be problematic.


I do wonder if enforcing CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM would be cleaner. 
devmem_is_allowed() should disallow access to any system ram, and 
thereby, any possible secretmem pages, avoiding this check completely.

We'll end up here with gfp == GFP_HIGHUSER (via the mapping below), correct?

Would we want to translate that to a proper VM_FAULT_..., which would 
most probably be VM_FAULT_OOM when we fail to allocate a pagetable?

Hmm, to me it feels like something like that belongs into the 
set_direct_map_invalid_*() calls? Otherwise it's just very easy to mess 
up ...


I'm certainly not a filesystem guy. Nothing else jumped at me.


To me, the overall approach makes sense and I consider it an improved 
mlock() mechanism for storing secrets, although I'd love to have some 
more information in the log regarding access via root, namely that there 
are still fancy ways to read secretmem memory once root via

1. warm reboot attacks especially in VMs (e.g., modifying the cmdline)
2. kexec-style reboot attacks (e.g., modifying the cmdline)
3. kdump attacks
4. kdb most probably
5. "letting the process read the memory for us" via Kees if that still
    applies
6. ... most probably something else

Just to make people aware that there are still some things to be sorted 
out when we fully want to protect against privilege escalations.

(maybe this information is buried in the cover letter already, where it 
usually gets lost)
