| Subject: CVE-2021-47414: riscv: Flush current cpu icache before other cpus |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| riscv: Flush current cpu icache before other cpus |
| |
| On SiFive Unmatched, I recently fell onto the following BUG when booting: |

| |
| While ftrace is looping over a list of addresses to patch, it always failed |
| when patching the same function: riscv_cpuid_to_hartid_mask. Looking at the |
| backtrace, the illegal instruction is encountered in this same function. |
| However, patch_text_nosync, after patching the instructions, calls |
| flush_icache_range. But looking at what happens in this function: |
| |
| flush_icache_range -> flush_icache_all |
| -> sbi_remote_fence_i |
| -> __sbi_rfence_v02 |
| -> riscv_cpuid_to_hartid_mask |
| |
| The icache and dcache of the current cpu are never synchronized between the |
| patching of riscv_cpuid_to_hartid_mask and calling this same function. |
| |
| So fix this by flushing the current cpu's icache before asking for the other |
| cpus to do the same. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2021-47414 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
