-[PATCH v10 2/8] ima: define and call ima_alloc_kexec_file_buf()
+[PATCH v11 2/9] ima: define and call ima_alloc_kexec_file_buf()
+In the current implementation, the ima_dump_measurement_list() API is
+called during the kexec "load" phase, where a buffer is allocated and
+the measurement records are copied. Due to this, new events added after
+kexec load but before kexec execute are not carried over to the new kernel
+during kexec operation
+To allow the buffer allocation and population to be separated into distinct
+steps, make the function local seq_file "ima_kexec_file" to a file variable.
 Carrying the IMA measurement list across kexec requires allocating a
 buffer and copying the measurement records.  Separate allocating the
 buffer and copying the measurement records into separate functions in
 order to allocate the buffer at kexec 'load' and copy the measurements
 at kexec 'execute'.
-This patch includes the following changes:
- - Refactor ima_dump_measurement_list() to move the memory allocation
-   to a separate function ima_alloc_kexec_file_buf() which allocates
-   buffer of size 'kexec_segment_size' at kexec 'load'.
- - Make the local variable ima_kexec_file in ima_dump_measurement_list()
-   a local static to the file, so that it can be accessed from
-   ima_alloc_kexec_file_buf().
- - Make necessary changes to the function ima_add_kexec_buffer() to call
-   the above two functions.

-[PATCH v10 7/8] ima: make the kexec extra memory configurable
+[PATCH v11 8/9] ima: make the kexec extra memory configurable
 The extra memory allocated for carrying the IMA measurement list across
 kexec is hard-coded as half a PAGE.  Make it configurable.
 Define a Kconfig option, IMA_KEXEC_EXTRA_MEMORY_KB, to configure the
 extra memory (in kb) to be allocated for IMA measurements added during
 kexec soft reboot.  Ensure the default value of the option is set such
 that extra half a page of memory for additional measurements is allocated
 for the additional measurements.
 Update ima_add_kexec_buffer() function to allocate memory based on the
 Kconfig option value, rather than the currently hard-coded one.

 ...

The current kernel behavior is IMA measurements snapshot is taken at
kexec 'load' and not at kexec 'execute'.  IMA log is then carried
over to the new kernel after kexec 'execute'.

Currently, the kernel behavior during kexec load is to fetch the IMA
measurements log from TPM PCRs and store it in a buffer. When a kexec 
reboot is triggered, this stored log buffer is carried over to the second
kernel. However, the time gap between kexec load and kexec reboot can be
very long. During this time window, new events extended into TPM PCRs miss
the chance to be carried over to the second kernel. This results in 
mismatch between TPM PCR quotes and the actual IMA measurements list after 
kexec soft reboot, which in turn results in remote attestation failure.

To solve this problem - 
 - allocate the necessary buffer at kexec 'load' time,
 - populate the buffer with the IMA measurements at kexec 'execute' time, 
 - and measure two new IMA events 'kexec_load' and 'kexec_execute' as
   critical data to help detect missing events after kexec soft reboot.

The solution details include:
 - refactoring the existing code to allocate a buffer to hold IMA
   measurements at kexec 'load', and dump the measurements at kexec
   'execute'

- kexec functionality for mapping the segments from the current kernel
   to the subsequent one,

- necessary changes to the kexec_file_load syscall, enabling it to call
   the ima functions,

- registering a reboot notifier which gets called during kexec 'execute',

- introducing a new Kconfig option to configure the extra memory to be
   allocated for passing IMA log from the current Kernel to the next,
   
 - introducing two new events to be measured by IMA during kexec, to
   help diagnose if the IMA log was copied fully or partially, from the
   current Kernel to the next,

- excluding IMA segment while calculating and storing digest in function
   kexec_calculate_store_digests(), since IMA segment can be modified
   after the digest is computed during kexec 'load'.  This will ensure
   that the segment is not added to the 'purgatory_sha_regions', and thus
   not verified by verify_sha256_digest().

The changes proposed in this series ensure the integrity of the IMA
measurements is preserved across kexec soft reboots, thus significantly
improving the security of the kernel post kexec soft reboots.

There were previous attempts to fix this issue [1], [2], [3].  But they
were not merged into the mainline kernel.

We took inspiration from the past work [1] and [2] while working on this
patch series.

Change Log v10:
 - Incorporated feedback from the community (Mimi Zohar, Baoquan He, and 
   kernel test robot) on v9 of this series[11].
 - [PATCH V9 1/7] was splited into two [PATCH V10 1/8] and [PATCH V10 2/8]. 
   Per Mimi comment on [PATCH V9 1/7].
 - Verified all the patches are bisect-safe by booting into each
   patch and verifying multiple kexec 'load' operations work,
   and also verifying kexec soft reboot works, and IMA log gets
   carried over for each patch.

Change Log v9:
 - Incorporated feedback from the community (Stefan Berger, Mimi Zohar, 
   and kernel test robot) on v8 of this series[10].
 - Rebased the patch series to mainline 6.14.0-rc3.
 - Verified all the patches are bisect-safe by booting into each
   patch and verifying multiple kexec 'load' operations work,
   and also verifying kexec soft reboot works, and IMA log gets
   carried over for each patch.

Change Log v8:
 - Incorporated feedback from the community (Stefan Berger, Mimi Zohar) 
   on v7 of this series[9].
 - Rebased the patch series to mainline 6.14.0-rc1.
 - Verified all the patches are bisect-safe by booting into each
   patch and verifying multiple kexec 'load' operations work,
   and also verifying kexec soft reboot works, and IMA log gets
   carried over for each patch.

Change Log v7:
 - Incorporated feedback from the community (Stefan Berger, Tyler Hicks) 
   on v6 of this series[8].
 - Verified all the patches are bisect-safe by booting into each
   patch and verifying multiple kexec 'load' operations work,
   and also verifying kexec soft reboot works, and IMA log gets

   patch and verifying multiple kexec 'load' operations work,
   and also verifying kexec soft reboot works, and IMA log gets
   carried over for each patch.
 - Compared the memory size allocated with memory size of the entire 
   measurement record. If there is not enough memory, it will copy as many
   IMA measurement records as possible, and this situation will result

   to remove unnecessary references related to backwards compatibility.
 - Fixed a typo in log message/removed an extra line etc.
 - Updated patch descriptions as necessary.

   system can go through kexec soft reboot, and IMA log is carried
   over after each patch.
 - Verified all the patches are bisect-safe by booting into each
   patch and verifying kexec soft reboot works, and IMA log gets
   carried over.

   separate patch. (patch #3).
 - Registering reboot notifier and functions related to move ima 
   log copy from kexec load to execute are now part of the same
   patch (patch #4) to protect bisect-safeness of the series.
 - Updated the title of patch #6 as per the feedback.
 - The default value of kexec extra memory for IMA measurements

   memory early to avoid potential memory leak.
 - Updated patch 6/7 to change Kconfig option IMA_KEXEC_EXTRA_PAGES to
   IMA_KEXEC_EXTRA_MEMORY_KB to allocate the memory in kb rather than
   in number of pages.
 - Optimized patch 7/7 not to free and alloc memory if the buffer size
   hasn't changed during multiple kexec 'load' operations.
 - Fixed a bug in patch 7/7 to measure multiple 'kexec_load' events even
   if buffer size hasn't changed.
 - Verified the patches are bisect-safe by compiling and booting into
   each patch individually.

Change Log v2:
 - Incorporated feedback from the community on v1 series.
 - Refactored the existing ima_dump_measurement_list to move buffer
   allocation functionality to ima_alloc_kexec_buf() function.
 - Introduced a new Kconfig option to configure the memory.

steven chen (8):
  ima: rename variable the ser_file "file" to "ima_kexec_file"
  ima: define and call ima_alloc_kexec_file_buf()
  kexec: define functions to map and unmap segments
  ima: kexec: skip IMA segment validation after kexec soft reboot
  ima: kexec: define functions to copy IMA log at soft boot
  ima: kexec: move IMA log copy from kexec load to execute
  ima: make the kexec extra memory configurable
  ima: measure kexec load and exec events as critical data

-- 
2.25.1

The name of the local variable "file" of type seq_file defined in the
ima_dump_measurement_list function is too generic. To better reflect the
purpose of the variable, rename it to "ima_kexec_file". This change will 
help improve code readability and maintainability by making the variable's
role more explicit.

The variable ima_kexec_file is indeed the memory allocated for copying IMA
measurement records. The ima_dump_measurement_list function calculates the 
actual memory occupied by the IMA logs and compares it with the allocated 
memory. If there is enough memory, it copies all IMA measurement records; 
otherwise, it does not copy any records, which would result in a failure
of remote attestation.

2.25.1

Carrying the IMA measurement list across kexec requires allocating a
buffer and copying the measurement records.  Separate allocating the
buffer and copying the measurement records into separate functions in
order to allocate the buffer at kexec 'load' and copy the measurements
at kexec 'execute'.

This patch includes the following changes:
 - Refactor ima_dump_measurement_list() to move the memory allocation
   to a separate function ima_alloc_kexec_file_buf() which allocates
   buffer of size 'kexec_segment_size' at kexec 'load'.
 - Make the local variable ima_kexec_file in ima_dump_measurement_list()
   a local static to the file, so that it can be accessed from 
   ima_alloc_kexec_file_buf().
 - Make necessary changes to the function ima_add_kexec_buffer() to call
   the above two functions.

2.25.1

Currently, the kernel behavior during kexec load is to fetch the IMA
measurements log from TPM PCRs and store it in a buffer. When a kexec 
reboot is triggered, this stored log buffer is carried over to the second
kernel. However, the time gap between kexec load and kexec reboot can be
very long. During this time window, new events extended into TPM PCRs miss
the chance to be carried over to the second kernel. This results in a 
mismatch between TPM PCR quotes and the actual IMA measurements list after
kexec reboot, leading to remote attestation failure.

To solve this problem, the new design defers reading TPM PCRs content into
the kexec buffer to the kexec reboot phase, while still allocating the
necessary buffer at kexec load time because it is not appropriate to
allocate memory at the kexec reboot moment.

The content of memory segments carried over to the new kernel during the
kexec system call can be changed at the kexec 'execute' stage, but the size
of the memory segments cannot be changed at the kexec 'execute' stage.

To copy IMA measurement logs during the kexec operation, IMA allocates 
memory at the kexec 'load' stage and map the segments to the kimage 
structure. The mapped address will then be used to copy IMA measurements 
during the kexec 'execute' stage.

Currently, the mechanism to map and unmap segments to the kimage structure
is not available to subsystems outside of kexec.

Implement kimage_map_segment() to enable IMA to map the measurement log 
list to the kimage structure during the kexec 'load' stage. This function
takes a kimage pointer, a memory address, and a size, then gathers the
source pages within the specified address range, creates an array of page
pointers, and maps these to a contiguous virtual address range. The
function returns the start virtual address of this range if successful, 
or NULL on failure.

Implement kimage_unmap_segment() for unmapping segments using vunmap().

2.25.1

With this series, the IMA segment will be updated with the measurement 
log at the kexec execute stage when a soft reboot is initiated. 
Therefore, the digests should be updated for the IMA segment in the 
normal case.

The content of memory segments carried over to the new kernel during the
kexec systemcall can be changed at kexec 'execute' stage, but the size
and the location of the memory segments cannot be changed at kexec
'execute' stage.

However, during the kexec execute stage, if kexec_calculate_store_digests()
API is called to update the digest, it does not reuse the same memory
segment allocated during the kexec 'load' stage and the new memory segment
required cannot be transferred/mapped to the new kernel.

As a result, digest verification will fail in verify_sha256_digest() 
after a kexec soft reboot into the new kernel. Therefore, the digest
calculation/verification of the IMA segment needs to be skipped.

To address this, skip the calculation and storage of the digest for the
IMA segment in kexec_calculate_store_digests() so that it is not added 
to the purgatory_sha_regions.

Since verify_sha256_digest() only verifies 'purgatory_sha_regions',
no change is needed in verify_sha256_digest() in this context.

With this change, the IMA segment is not included in the digest
calculation, storage, and verification.

The IMA log is currently copied to the new kernel during kexec 'load' 
using ima_dump_measurement_list(). However, the log copied at kexec 
'load' may result in loss of IMA measurements that only occurred after
kexec "load'. Therefore, the log needs to be copied during kexec 
'execute'. Setup the needed infrastructure to move the IMA log copy from
kexec 'load' to 'execute'.

Define a new IMA hook ima_update_kexec_buffer() as a stub function.
It will be used to call ima_dump_measurement_list() during kexec 'execute'.

Implement ima_kexec_post_load() function to be invoked after the new 
Kernel image has been loaded for kexec. ima_kexec_post_load() maps the 
IMA buffer to a segment in the newly loaded Kernel.  It also registers 
the reboot notifier_block to trigger ima_update_kexec_buffer() at 
kexec 'execute'.

2.25.1

ima_dump_measurement_list() is called during kexec 'load', which may
result in loss of IMA measurements during kexec soft reboot. Due to 
missed measurements that only occurred after kexec 'load', this function 
needs to be called during kexec 'execute'.

This patch includes the following changes:
 - Implement kimage_file_post_load() function to be invoked after the new
   kernel image has been loaded for kexec.
 - Call kimage_file_post_load() from kexec_file_load() syscall only for
   kexec soft reboot scenarios and not for KEXEC_FILE_ON_CRASH.  It will
   map the IMA segment, and register reboot notifier for the function
   ima_update_kexec_buffer() which would copy the IMA log at kexec soft
   reboot.
 - Make kexec_segment_size variable local static to the file so that it 
   becomes accessible both during kexec 'load' and 'execute'.
 - Move ima_dump_measurement_list() call from ima_add_kexec_buffer()
   to ima_update_kexec_buffer().
 - Copy the measurement list as much as possible.
 - Remove ima_reset_kexec_file() call from ima_add_kexec_buffer(), now
   that the buffer is being copied at kexec 'execute', and resetting the
   file at kexec 'load' would corrupt the buffer.

The extra memory allocated for carrying the IMA measurement list across
kexec is hard-coded as half a PAGE.  Make it configurable.

Define a Kconfig option, IMA_KEXEC_EXTRA_MEMORY_KB, to configure the
extra memory (in kb) to be allocated for IMA measurements added during
kexec soft reboot.  Ensure the default value of the option is set such
that extra half a page of memory for additional measurements is allocated
for the additional measurements.

Update ima_add_kexec_buffer() function to allocate memory based on the
Kconfig option value, rather than the currently hard-coded one.

The amount of memory allocated at kexec load, even with the extra memory
allocated, might not be large enough for the entire measurement list.  The
indeterminate interval between kexec 'load' and 'execute' could exacerbate
this problem.

Define two new IMA events, 'kexec_load' and 'kexec_execute', to be 
measured as critical data at kexec 'load' and 'execute' respectively.
Report the allocated kexec segment size, IMA binary log size and the
runtime measurements count as part of those events.

These events, and the values reported through them, serve as markers in
the IMA log to verify the IMA events are captured during kexec soft
reboot.  The presence of a 'kexec_load' event in between the last two
'boot_aggregate' events in the IMA log implies this is a kexec soft
reboot, and not a cold-boot. And the absence of 'kexec_execute' event
after kexec soft reboot implies missing events in that window which
results in inconsistency with TPM PCR quotes, necessitating a cold boot
for a successful remote attestation.

These critical data events are displayed as hex encoded ascii in the
ascii_runtime_measurement_list.  Verifying the critical data hash requires 
calculating the hash of the decoded ascii string.

For example, to verify the 'kexec_load' data hash:

sudo cat /sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements 
| grep  kexec_load | cut -d' ' -f 6 | xxd -r -p | sha256sum

To verify the 'kexec_execute' data hash:

sudo cat /sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements 
| grep kexec_execute | cut -d' ' -f 6 | xxd -r -p | sha256sum
