Check the repeat_nmi .. end_repeat_nmi special case first. The next patch will rework the RSP check and, as a side effect, the RSP check will no longer detect repeat_nmi .. end_repeat_nmi, so we'll need this ordering of the checks. Note: this is more subtle than it appears. The check for repeat_nmi .. end_repeat_nmi jumps straight out of the NMI code instead of adjusting the "iret" frame to force a repeat. This is necessary, because the code between repeat_nmi and end_repeat_nmi sets "NMI executing" and then writes to the "iret" frame itself. If a nested NMI comes in and modifies the "iret" frame while repeat_nmi is also modifying it, we'll end up with garbage. The old code got this right, as does the new code, but the new code is a bit more explicit. If we were to move the check right after the "NMI executing" check, then we'd get it wrong and have random crashes. ( Because the "NMI executing" check would jump to the code that would modify the "iret" frame without checking if the interrupted NMI was currently modifying it. ) Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> |
