* x86: Remove arbitrary instruction size limit in instruction decoderDave Hansen2014-11-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current x86 instruction decoder steps along through the instruction stream but always ensures that it never steps farther than the largest possible instruction size (MAX_INSN_SIZE). The MPX code is now going to be doing some decoding of userspace instructions. We copy those from userspace in to the kernel and they're obviously completely untrusted coming from userspace. In addition to the constraint that instructions can only be so long, we also have to be aware of how long the buffer is that came in from userspace. This _looks_ to be similar to what the perf and kprobes is doing, but it's unclear to me whether they are affected. The whole reason we need this is that it is perfectly valid to be executing an instruction within MAX_INSN_SIZE bytes of an unreadable page. We should be able to gracefully handle short reads in those cases. This adds support to the decoder to record how long the buffer being decoded is and to refuse to "validate" the instruction if we would have gone over the end of the buffer to decode it. The kprobes code probably needs to be looked at here a bit more carefully. This patch still respects the MAX_INSN_SIZE limit there but the kprobes code does look like it might be able to be a bit more strict than it currently is.

* x86: Instruction decoder test should generate build warningMasami Hiramatsu2009-11-191-6/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since some instructions are not decoded correctly by older versions of objdump, it may cause false positive error in insn decoder posttest. This changes build error of insn decoder test to build warning.

* x86: X86 instruction decoder build-time selftestMasami Hiramatsu2009-08-271-0/+113
Add a user-space selftest of x86 instruction decoder at kernel build time. When CONFIG_X86_DECODER_SELFTEST=y, Kbuild builds a test harness of x86 instruction decoder and performs it after building vmlinux. The test compares the results of objdump and x86 instruction decoder code and check there are no differences.
