 [Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH] x86/smpboot: Unconditionally call memguard_unguard_stack() in cpu_smpboot_free()
 For simplicity between various configuration, Xen always uses shadow stack
mappings (Read-only + Dirty) for the guard page, irrespective of whether
CET-SS is enabled.
memguard_guard_stack() writes shadow stack tokens with plain writes.  This is
necessary to configure the BSP shadow stack correctly, and cannot be
implemented with WRSS.
Therefore, unconditionally call memguard_unguard_stack() to return the
mappings to fully writeable, so a subsequent call to memguard_guard_stack()
will succeed.
Fixes: 91d26ed304f ("x86/shstk: Create shadow stacks")

This can more easily be demonstrated with CPU hotplug than S3, and the absence
of bug reports goes to show how rarely hotplug is used.
