[PATCH 4.14 47/70] x86/speculation: Prevent deadlock on ssb_state::lock
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Apr 24 2019 - 13:52:51 EST
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 2f5fb19341883bb6e37da351bc3700489d8506a7 upstream.
Mikhail reported a lockdep splat related to the AMD specific ssb_state
lock:
CPU0 CPU1
lock(&st->lock);
local_irq_disable();
lock(&(&sighand->siglock)->rlock);
lock(&st->lock);
<Interrupt>
lock(&(&sighand->siglock)->rlock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
The connection between sighand->siglock and st->lock comes through seccomp,
which takes st->lock while holding sighand->siglock.
Make sure interrupts are disabled when __speculation_ctrl_update() is
invoked via prctl() -> speculation_ctrl_update(). Add a lockdep assert to
catch future offenders.
Fixes: 1f50ddb4f418 ("x86/speculation: Handle HT correctly on AMD")
