From: Rick Edgecombe <rick.p.edgecombe@intel.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.5-rc7 commit 1f69383b203e28cf8a4ca9570e572da1699f76cd category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I9NZ3E Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i... -------------------------------- The thread flag TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD indicates that the FPU saved state is valid and should be reloaded when returning to userspace. However, the kernel will skip doing this if the FPU registers are already valid as determined by fpregs_state_valid(). The logic embedded there considers the state valid if two cases are both true: 1: fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx points to the current tasks FPU state 2: the last CPU the registers were live in was the current CPU. This is usually correct logic. A CPU’s fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx is set to the current FPU during the fpregs_restore_userregs() operation, so it indicates that the registers have been restored on this CPU. But this alone doesn’t preclude that the task hasn’t been rescheduled to a different CPU, where the registers were modified, and then back to the current CPU. To verify that this was not the case the logic relies on the second condition. So the assumption is that if the registers have been restored, AND they haven’t had the chance to be modified (by being loaded on another CPU), then they MUST be valid on the current CPU. Besides the lazy FPU optimizations, the other cases where the FPU registers might not be valid are when the kernel modifies the FPU register state or the FPU saved buffer. In this case the operation modifying the FPU state needs to let the kernel know the correspondence has been broken. The comment in “arch/x86/kernel/fpu/context.h” has: /* ... * If the FPU register state is valid, the kernel can skip restoring the * FPU state from memory. * * Any code that clobbers the FPU registers or updates the in-memory * FPU state for a task MUST let the rest of the kernel know that the * FPU registers are no longer valid for this task. * * Either one of these invalidation functions is enough. Invalidate * a resource you control: CPU if using the CPU for something else * (with preemption disabled), FPU for the current task, or a task that * is prevented from running by the current task. */ However, this is not completely true. When the kernel modifies the registers or saved FPU state, it can only rely on __fpu_invalidate_fpregs_state(), which wipes the FPU’s last_cpu tracking. The exec path instead relies on fpregs_deactivate(), which sets the CPU’s FPU context to NULL. This was observed to fail to restore the reset FPU state to the registers when returning to userspace in the following scenario: 1. A task is executing in userspace on CPU0 - CPU0’s FPU context points to tasks - fpu->last_cpu=CPU0 2. The task exec()’s 3. While in the kernel the task is preempted - CPU0 gets a thread executing in the kernel (such that no other FPU context is activated) - Scheduler sets task’s fpu->last_cpu=CPU0 when scheduling out 4. Task is migrated to CPU1 5. Continuing the exec(), the task gets to fpu_flush_thread()->fpu_reset_fpregs() - Sets CPU1’s fpu context to NULL - Copies the init state to the task’s FPU buffer - Sets TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD on the task 6. The task reschedules back to CPU0 before completing the exec() and returning to userspace - During the reschedule, scheduler finds TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD is set - Skips saving the registers and updating task’s fpu→last_cpu, because TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD is the canonical source. 7. Now CPU0’s FPU context is still pointing to the task’s, and fpu->last_cpu is still CPU0. So fpregs_state_valid() returns true even though the reset FPU state has not been restored. So the root cause is that exec() is doing the wrong kind of invalidate. It should reset fpu->last_cpu via __fpu_invalidate_fpregs_state(). Further, fpu__drop() doesn't really seem appropriate as the task (and FPU) are not going away, they are just getting reset as part of an exec. So switch to __fpu_invalidate_fpregs_state(). Also, delete the misleading comment that says that either kind of invalidate will be enough, because it’s not always the case.
