stable inclusion from stable-v4.19.191 commit 2db22ba4e0e103f00e0512e0ecce36ac78c644f8 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I932VC CVE: CVE-2021-46990
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...
--------------------------------
commit aec86b052df6541cc97c5fca44e5934cbea4963b upstream.
The entry flush mitigation can be enabled/disabled at runtime via a debugfs file (entry_flush), which causes the kernel to patch itself to enable/disable the relevant mitigations.
However depending on which mitigation we're using, it may not be safe to do that patching while other CPUs are active. For example the following crash:
sleeper[15639]: segfault (11) at c000000000004c20 nip c000000000004c20 lr c000000000004c20
Shows that we returned to userspace with a corrupted LR that points into the kernel, due to executing the partially patched call to the fallback entry flush (ie. we missed the LR restore).
Fix it by doing the patching under stop machine. The CPUs that aren't doing the patching will be spinning in the core of the stop machine logic. That is currently sufficient for our purposes, because none of the patching we do is to that code or anywhere in the vicinity.
