Subject: [PATCH v1 3/4] x86/mce: add EX_TYPE_EFAULT_REG as in-kernel recovery context to fix copy-from-user operations regression
Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2025 14:01:59 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250211060200.33845-4-xueshuai@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250211060200.33845-1-xueshuai@linux.alibaba.com>
Commit 4c132d1d844a ("x86/futex: Remove .fixup usage") introduced a new
extable fixup type, EX_TYPE_EFAULT_REG, and later patches updated the
extable fixup type for copy-from-user operations, changing it from
EX_TYPE_UACCESS to EX_TYPE_EFAULT_REG.
Specifically, commit 99641e094d6c ("x86/uaccess: Remove .fixup usage")
altered the extable fixup type for the get_user family, while commit
4c132d1d844a ("x86/futex: Remove .fixup usage") addressed the futex
operations. This change inadvertently caused a regression where the error
context for some copy-from-user operations no longer functions as an
in-kernel recovery context, leading to kernel panics with the message:
"Machine check: Data load in unrecoverable area of kernel."
To fix the regression, add EX_TYPE_EFAULT_REG as a in-kernel recovery
context for copy-from-user operations.
