[Xen-devel] [PATCH L1TF MDS GT v2 2/2] common/grant_table: harden version dependent accesses



Guests can issue grant table operations and provide guest controlled
data to them. This data is used as index for memory loads after bound
checks have been done. Depending on the grant table version, the
size of elements in containers differ. As the base data structure is
a page, the number of elements per page also differs. Consequently,
bound checks are version dependent, so that speculative execution can
happen in several stages, the bound check as well as the version check.

This commit mitigates cases where out-of-bound accesses could happen
due to the version comparison. In cases, where no different memory
locations are accessed on the code path that follow an if statement,
no protection is required. No different memory locations are accessed
in the following functions after a version check:

 * gnttab_setup_table: only calculated numbersi are used, and then
        function gnttab_grow_table is called, which is version protected

 * gnttab_transfer: the case that depends on the version check just gets
        into copying a page or not

 * acquire_grant_for_copy: the not fixed comparison is on the abort path
        and does not access other structures, and on the else branch
        accesses only structures that have been validated before

 * gnttab_set_version: all accessible data is allocated for both versions
        Furthermore, the functions gnttab_populate_status_frames and
        gnttab_unpopulate_status_frames received a block_speculation
        macro. Hence, this code will only be executed once the correct
        version is visible in the architectural state.

 * gnttab_release_mappings: this function is called only during domain
       destruction and control is not returned to the guest

 * mem_sharing_gref_to_gfn: speculation will be stoped by the second if
       statement, as that places a barrier on any path to be executed.

 * gnttab_get_status_frame_mfn: no version dependent check, because all
       accesses, except the gt->status[idx], do not perform index-based
       accesses, or speculative out-of-bound accesses in the
       gnttab_grow_table function call.

 * gnttab_usage_print: cannot be triggered by the guest

This is part of the speculative hardening effort.

Notes:
  v2:  Add block_speculation to gnttab_populate_status_frames and
           gnttab_unpopulate_status_frames
       Add block_speculation in gnttab_get_status_frame_mfn, to make sure
           we actually work with a version 2 grant table
