x86/mm: Warn on W^X mappings
Warn on any residual W+X mappings after setting NX if DEBUG_WX is enabled. Introduce a separate X86_PTDUMP_CORE config that enables the code for dumping the page tables without enabling the debugfs interface, so that DEBUG_WX can be enabled without exposing the debugfs interface. Switch EFI_PGT_DUMP to using X86_PTDUMP_CORE so that it also does not require enabling the debugfs interface. On success it prints this to the kernel log: x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: passed, no W+X pages found. On failure it prints a warning and a count of the failed pages: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1 at arch/x86/mm/dump_pagetables.c:226 note_page+0x610/0x7b0() x86/mm: Found insecure W+X mapping at address ffffffff81755000/__stop___ex_table+0xfa8/0xabfa8 [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff81380a5f>] dump_stack+0x44/0x55 [<ffffffff8109d3f2>] warn_slowpath_common+0x82/0xc0 [<ffffffff8109d48c>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x5c/0x80 [<ffffffff8106cfc9>] ? note_page+0x5c9/0x7b0 [<ffffffff8106d010>] note_page+0x610/0x7b0 [<ffffffff8106d409>] ptdump_walk_pgd_level_core+0x259/0x3c0 [<ffffffff8106d5a7>] ptdump_walk_pgd_level_checkwx+0x17/0x20 [<ffffffff81063905>] mark_rodata_ro+0xf5/0x100 [<ffffffff817415a0>] ? rest_init+0x80/0x80 [<ffffffff817415bd>] kernel_init+0x1d/0xe0 [<ffffffff8174cd1f>] ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70 [<ffffffff817415a0>] ? rest_init+0x80/0x80 ---[ end trace a1f23a1e42a2ac76 ]--- x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: FAILED, 171 W+X pages found.
