    x86/xen: Add xenpv_restore_regs_and_return_to_usermode() · 5c8f6a2e
    Lai Jiangshan authored
    In the native case, PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_tss_rw + TSS_sp0) is the
    trampoline stack. But XEN pv doesn't use trampoline stack, so
    PER_CPU_VAR(cpu_tss_rw + TSS_sp0) is also the kernel stack.
    
    In that case, source and destination stacks are identical, which means
    that reusing swapgs_restore_regs_and_return_to_usermode() in XEN pv
    would cause %rsp to move up to the top of the kernel stack and leave the
    IRET frame below %rsp.
    
    This is dangerous as it can be corrupted if #NMI / #MC hit as either of
    these events occurring in the middle of the stack pushing would clobber
    data on the (original) stack.
    
    And, with  XEN pv, swapgs_restore_regs_and_return_to_usermode() pushing
    the IRET frame on to the original address is useless and error-prone
    when there is any future attempt to modify the code.
