stable inclusion from stable-v6.6.7 commit 73bbca1298645b995ce105d0290f05cbe37fc35a category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I8SSQ4
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...
--------------------------------
[ Upstream commit 27d25348d42161837be08fc63b04a2559d2e781c ]
A write-access violation page fault kernel crash was observed while running cpuhotplug LTP testcases on SEV-ES enabled systems. The crash was observed during hotplug, after the CPU was offlined and the process was migrated to different CPU. setup_ghcb() is called again which tries to update ghcb_version in sev_es_negotiate_protocol(). Ideally this is a read_only variable which is initialised during booting.
Trying to write it results in a pagefault:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffba556e70 #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0003) - permissions violation [ ...] Call Trace: <TASK> ? __die_body.cold+0x1a/0x1f ? __die+0x2a/0x35 ? page_fault_oops+0x10c/0x270 ? setup_ghcb+0x71/0x100 ? __x86_return_thunk+0x5/0x6 ? search_exception_tables+0x60/0x70 ? __x86_return_thunk+0x5/0x6 ? fixup_exception+0x27/0x320 ? kernelmode_fixup_or_oops+0xa2/0x120 ? __bad_area_nosemaphore+0x16a/0x1b0 ? kernel_exc_vmm_communication+0x60/0xb0 ? bad_area_nosemaphore+0x16/0x20 ? do_kern_addr_fault+0x7a/0x90 ? exc_page_fault+0xbd/0x160 ? asm_exc_page_fault+0x27/0x30 ? setup_ghcb+0x71/0x100 ? setup_ghcb+0xe/0x100 cpu_init_exception_handling+0x1b9/0x1f0
The fix is to call sev_es_negotiate_protocol() only in the BSP boot phase, and it only needs to be done once in any case.
