[PATCH 3.12 14/66] x86_64, traps: Stop using IST for #SS
From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Sat Dec 06 2014 - 10:20:01 EST
From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
===============
commit 6f442be2fb22be02cafa606f1769fa1e6f894441 upstream.
On a 32-bit kernel, this has no effect, since there are no IST stacks.
On a 64-bit kernel, #SS can only happen in user code, on a failed iret
to user space, a canonical violation on access via RSP or RBP, or a
genuine stack segment violation in 32-bit kernel code. The first two
cases don't need IST, and the latter two cases are unlikely fatal bugs,
and promoting them to double faults would be fine.
This fixes a bug in which the espfix64 code mishandles a stack segment
violation.
This saves 4k of memory per CPU and a tiny bit of code.
