[PATCH] x86/fpu: Fault-in user stack if copy_fpstate_to_sigframe() fails

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior
Date: Mon Apr 29 2019 - 12:40:14 EST


In the compacted form, the XSAVES may save only XMM+SSE but skip FP.
This is denoted by header->xfeatures = 6. The fastpath
(copy_fpregs_to_sigframe()) does that but _also_ initialises the FP
state (cwd to 0x37f, mxcsr as we do, remaining fields to 0).
The slowpath (copy_xstate_to_user()) leaves most of the FP untouched.
Only mxcsr and mxcsr_flags are set due to xfeatures_mxcsr_quirk().
Now that XFEATURE_MASK_FP is set unconditionally we load on return from
signal random garbage as the FP state.

Instead of utilizing copy_xstate_to_user() fault-in the user memory and
retry the fast path. Ideally the fast path succeeds on the second
attempt but may be retried again if the memory is swapped out due to
memory pressure. If the user memory can not be faulted-in then
get_user_pages() returns an error so we don't loop forever.

Fault in memory via get_user_pages() so copy_fpregs_to_sigframe()
succeeds without a fault.
