i386: fix return to 16-bit stack from NMI handler
Returning to a task with a 16-bit stack requires special care: the iret instruction does not restore the high word of esp in that case. The espfix code fixes this, but currently is not invoked on NMIs. This means that a running task gets the upper word of esp clobbered due intervening NMIs. To reproduce, compile and run the following program with the nmi watchdog enabled (nmi_watchdog=2 on the command line). Using gdb you can see that the high bits of esp contain garbage, while the low bits are still correct. This patch puts the espfix code back into the NMI code path. The patch is slightly complicated due to the irqtrace infrastructure not being NMI-safe. The NMI return path cannot call TRACE_IRQS_IRET. Otherwise, the tail of the normal iret-code is correct for the nmi code path too. To be able to share this code-path, the TRACE_IRQS_IRET was move up a bit. The espfix code exists after the TRACE_IRQS_IRET, but this code explicitly disables interrupts. This short interrupts-off section is now not traced anymore. The return-to-kernel path now always includes the preliminary test to decide if the espfix code should be called. This is never the case, but doing it this way keeps the patch as simple as possible and the few extra instructions should not affect timing in any significant way. #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <asm/ldt.h> int modify_ldt(int func, void *ptr, unsigned long bytecount) { return syscall(SYS_modify_ldt, func, ptr, bytecount); } /* this is assumed to be usable */ #define SEGBASEADDR 0x10000 #define SEGLIMIT 0x20000 /* 16-bit segment */ struct user_desc desc = { .entry_number = 0, .base_addr = SEGBASEADDR, .limit = SEGLIMIT, .seg_32bit = 0, .contents = 0, /* ??? */ .read_exec_only = 0, .limit_in_pages = 0, .seg_not_present = 0, .useable = 1 }; int main(void) { setvbuf(stdout, NULL, _IONBF, 0); /* map a 64 kb segment */ char *pointer = mmap((void *)SEGBASEADDR, SEGLIMIT+1, PROT_EXEC|PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); if (pointer == NULL) { printf("could not map space\n"); return 0; } /* write ldt, new mode */ int err = modify_ldt(0x11, &desc, sizeof(desc)); if (err) { printf("error modifying ldt: %i\n", err); return 0; } for (int i=0; i<1000; i++) { asm volatile ( "pusha\n\t" "mov %ss, %eax\n\t" /* preserve ss:esp */ "mov %esp, %ebp\n\t" "push $7\n\t" /* index 0, ldt, user mode */ "push $65536-4096\n\t" /* esp */ "lss (%esp), %esp\n\t" /* switch to new stack */ "push %eax\n\t" /* save old ss:esp on new stack */ "push %ebp\n\t" "add $17*65536, %esp\n\t" /* set high bits */ "mov %esp, %edx\n\t" "mov $10000000, %ecx\n\t" /* wait... */ "1: loop 1b\n\t" /* ... a bit */ "cmp %esp, %edx\n\t" "je 1f\n\t" "ud2\n\t" /* esp changed inexplicably! */ "1:\n\t" "sub $17*65536, %esp\n\t" /* restore high bits */ "lss (%esp), %esp\n\t" /* restore old ss:esp */ "popa\n\t"); printf("\rx%ix", i); } return 0; } Signed-off-by: NAlexander van Heukelum <heukelum@fastmail.fm> Acked-by: NStas Sergeev <stsp@aknet.ru> Signed-off-by: NH.
