The state/owner of the FPU is saved to fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx by pointing to the context that is currently loaded. It never changed during the lifetime of a task - it remained stable/constant. After deferred FPU registers loading until return to userland was implemented, the content of fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx may change during preemption and must not be cached. This went unnoticed for some time and was now noticed, in particular since gcc 9 is caching that load in copy_fpstate_to_sigframe() and reusing it in the retry loop: copy_fpstate_to_sigframe() load fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx and save on stack fpregs_lock() copy_fpregs_to_sigframe() /* failed */ fpregs_unlock() *** PREEMPTION, another uses FPU, changes fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx *** fault_in_pages_writeable() /* succeed, retry */ fpregs_lock() __fpregs_load_activate() fpregs_state_valid() /* uses fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx from stack */ copy_fpregs_to_sigframe() /* succeeds, random FPU content */ This is a comparison of the assembly produced by gcc 9, without vs with this patch: | # arch/x86/kernel/fpu/signal.c:173: if (!access_ok(buf, size)) | cmpq %rdx, %rax # tmp183, _4 | jb .L190 #, |-# arch/x86/include/asm/fpu/internal.h:512: return fpu == this_cpu_read_stable(fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx) && cpu == fpu->last_cpu; |-#APP |-# 512 "arch/x86/include/asm/fpu/internal.h" 1 |- movq %gs:fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx,%rax #, pfo_ret__ |-# 0 "" 2 |-#NO_APP |- movq %rax, -88(%rbp) # pfo_ret__, %sfp … |-# arch/x86/include/asm/fpu/internal.h:512: return fpu == this_cpu_read_stable(fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx) && cpu == fpu->last_cpu; |- movq -88(%rbp), %rcx # %sfp, pfo_ret__ |- cmpq %rcx, -64(%rbp) # pfo_ret__, %sfp |+# arch/x86/include/asm/fpu/internal.h:512: return fpu == this_cpu_read(fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx) && cpu == fpu->last_cpu; |+#APP |+# 512 "arch/x86/include/asm/fpu/internal.h" 1 |+ movq %gs:fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx(%rip),%rax # fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx, pfo_ret__ |+# 0 "" 2 |+# arch/x86/include/asm/fpu/internal.h:512: return fpu == this_cpu_read(fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx) && cpu == fpu->last_cpu; |+#NO_APP |+ cmpq %rax, -64(%rbp) # pfo_ret__, %sfp Use this_cpu_read() instead this_cpu_read_stable() to avoid caching of fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx during preemption points. The Fixes: tag points to the commit where deferred FPU loading was added. Since this commit, the compiler is no longer allowed to move the load of fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx somewhere else / outside of the locked section. A task preemption will change its value and stale content will be observed.
