commit 6d991ba5 upstream The seccomp speculation control operates on all tasks of a process, but only the current task of a process can update the MSR immediately. For the other threads the update is deferred to the next context switch. This creates the following situation with Process A and B: Process A task 2 and Process B task 1 are pinned on CPU1. Process A task 2 does not have the speculation control TIF bit set. Process B task 1 has the speculation control TIF bit set. CPU0 CPU1 MSR bit is set ProcB.T1 schedules out ProcA.T2 schedules in MSR bit is cleared ProcA.T1 seccomp_update() set TIF bit on ProcA.T2 ProcB.T1 schedules in MSR is not updated <-- FAIL This happens because the context switch code tries to avoid the MSR update if the speculation control TIF bits of the incoming and the outgoing task are the same. In the worst case ProcB.T1 and ProcA.T2 are the only tasks scheduling back and forth on CPU1, which keeps the MSR stale forever. In theory this could be remedied by IPIs, but chasing the remote task which could be migrated is complex and full of races. The straight forward solution is to avoid the asychronous update of the TIF bit and defer it to the next context switch. The speculation control state is stored in task_struct::atomic_flags by the prctl and seccomp updates already. Add a new TIF_SPEC_FORCE_UPDATE bit and set this after updating the atomic_flags. Check the bit on context switch and force a synchronous update of the speculation control if set. Use the same mechanism for updating the current task.
