[RFC PATCH v4 5/5] x86/vdso: Add __vdso_sgx_enter_enclave() to wrap SGX enclave transitions
Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX) SGX introduces a new CPL3-only enclave mode that runs as a sort of black box shared object that is hosted by an untrusted normal CPL3 process. Enclave transitions have semantics that are a lovely blend of SYCALL, SYSRET and VM-Exit. In a non-faulting scenario, entering and exiting an enclave can only be done through SGX-specific instructions, EENTER and EEXIT respectively. EENTER+EEXIT is analogous to SYSCALL+SYSRET, e.g. EENTER/SYSCALL load RCX with the next RIP and EEXIT/SYSRET load RIP from R{B,C}X. But in a faulting/interrupting scenario, enclave transitions act more like VM-Exit and VMRESUME. Maintaining the black box nature of the enclave means that hardware must automatically switch CPU context when an Asynchronous Exiting Event (AEE) occurs, an AEE being any interrupt or exception (exceptions are AEEs because asynchronous in this context is relative to the enclave and not CPU execution, e.g. the enclave doesn't get an opportunity to save/fuzz CPU state). Like VM-Exits, all AEEs jump to a common location, referred to as the Asynchronous Exiting Point (AEP). The AEP is specified at enclave entry via register passed to EENTER/ERESUME, similar to how the hypervisor specifies the VM-Exit point (via VMCS.HOST_RIP at VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME). Resuming the enclave/VM after the exiting event is handled is done via ERESUME/VMRESUME respectively. In SGX, AEEs that are handled by the kernel, e.g. INTR, NMI and most page faults, IRET will journey back to the AEP which then ERESUMEs th enclave. Enclaves also behave a bit like VMs in the sense that they can generate exceptions as part of their normal operation that for all intents and purposes need to handled in the enclave/VM. However, unlike VMX, SGX doesn't allow the host to modify its guest's, a.k.a. enclave's, state, as doing so would circumvent the enclave's security. So to handle an exception, the enclave must first be re-entered through the normal EENTER flow (SYSCALL/SYSRET behavior), and then resumed via ERESUME (VMRESUME behavior) after the source of the exception is resolved. All of the above is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to running an enclave. But, SGX was designed in such a way that the host process can utilize a library to build, launch and run an enclave. This is roughly analogous to how e.g. libc implementations are used by most applications so that the application can focus on its business logic. The big gotcha is that because enclaves can generate *and* handle exceptions, any SGX library must be prepared to handle nearly any exception at any time (well, any time a thread is executing in an enclave). In Linux, this means the SGX library must register a signal handler in order to intercept relevant exceptions and forward them to the enclave (or in some cases, take action on behalf of the enclave). Unfortunately, Linux's signal mechanism doesn't mesh well with libraries, e.g. signal handlers are process wide, are difficult to chain, etc... This becomes particularly nasty when using multiple levels of libraries that register signal handlers, e.g. running an enclave via cgo inside of the Go runtime. In comes vDSO to save the day. Now that vDSO can fixup exceptions, add a function, __vdso_sgx_enter_enclave(), to wrap enclave transitions and intercept any exceptions that occur when running the enclave. __vdso_sgx_enter_enclave() accepts four parameters: - The ENCLU leaf to execute (must be EENTER or ERESUME). - A pointer to a Thread Control Structure (TCS). A TCS is a page within the enclave that defines/tracks the context of an enclave thread. - An optional 'struct sgx_enclave_regs' pointer. If defined, the corresponding registers are loaded prior to entering the enclave and saved after (cleanly) exiting the enclave. The effective enclave register ABI follows the kernel x86-64 ABI. The x86-64 userspace ABI is not used due to RCX being usurped by hardware to pass the return RIP to the enclave. - An optional 'struct sgx_enclave_exception' pointer. If provided, the struct is filled with the faulting ENCLU leaf, trapnr, error code and address if an unhandled exception occurs on ENCLU or in the enclave. An unhandled exception is an exception that would normally be delivered to userspace via a signal, e.g. SIGSEGV. Note that this means that not all enclave exits are reported to the caller, e.g. interrupts and faults that are handled by the kernel do not trigger fixup and IRET back to ENCLU[ERESUME], i.e. unconditionally resume the enclave.

But not EFLAGS.DF, that's real helpful. I can think of three options that are at least somewhat reasonable: 1) Save/restore MXCSR and FCW + 100% compliant with the x86-64 ABI + Callable from any code + Minimal documentation required - Restoring MXCSR/FCW is likely unnecessary 99% of the time - Slow 2) Clear EFLAGS.DF but not save/restore MXCSR and FCW + Mostly compliant with the x86-64 ABI + Callable from any code that doesn't use SIMD registers - Need to document deviations from x86-64 ABI 3) Require the caller to save/restore everything. + Fast + Userspace can pass all GPRs to the enclave (minus EAX, RBX and RCX) - Completely custom ABI - For all intents and purposes must be called from an assembly wrapper Option (3) actually isn't all that awful. RCX can be used to pass an optional pointer to a 'struct sgx_enclave_exception' and we can still return standard error codes, e.g. -EFAULT.

Entering and exiting a syscall requires an assembly wrapper, and that doesn't seem completely unreasonable. It's an easy bit of inline assembly.

It's an easy bit of inline > assembly. The code I posted had a few typos (stupid AT&T syntax), but with those fixed the idea checks out. My initial reaction to a barebones ABI was that it would be a "documentation nightmare", but it's not too bad if it returns actual error codes and fills in a struct on exceptions instead of stuffing registers. And with the MXCSR/FCW issues it might actually be less documentation in the long run since we can simply say that all state is the caller's responsibility. I *really* like that we basically eliminate bikeshedding on which GPRs to pass to/from the enclave.

That usually > indicates a bad pointer. I’m not sure I have a better suggestion. Hmm, one idea would be to return positive signal numbers, e.g. SIGILL for #UD. I don't like that approach though as it adds a fair amount of code to the fixup handler for dubious value, e.g. userspace would still need to check the exception error code to determine if the EPC is lost. And we'd have to update the vDSO if a new exception and/or signal was added, e.g. #CP for CET. Encapsulating "you faulted" in a single error code seems cleaner for both kernel and userspace code, and -EFAULT makes that pretty obvious even though we're bastardizing its meaning a bit. In general, I'd prefer to return only 0 or negative values so that userspace can easily merge in their own (positive value) error codes from the enclave, e.g. in the vDSO wrapper: /* Enclave's return value is in RDI, overwrite RAX on success */ test%rax, %rax cmove %rdi, %rax ret

Trying to balance flexibility/usability with unecessary overhead.

Clearing RAX early avoids the use of another label, though obviously that's not exactly critical.

Ugh. Technically MXCSR and the x87 CW also need to be preserved. What if rather than treating the enclave as hostile we require it to be compliant with the x86-64 ABI like any other function? That would solve the EFLAGS.DF, MXCSR and x87 issues without adding unnecessary overhead. And we wouldn't have to save/restore R12-R15. It'd mean we couldn't use the stack's red zone to hold @regs and @e, but that's poor form anyways. > > -- > Jethro Beekman | Fortanix >

But not EFLAGS.DF, that's real helpful.
