[PATCH 4.4 129/241] x86/irq/64: Limit IST stack overflow check to #DB stack
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Jun 09 2019 - 13:05:54 EST
[ Upstream commit 7dbcf2b0b770eeb803a416ee8dcbef78e6389d40 ]
Commit
37fe6a42b343 ("x86: Check stack overflow in detail")
added a broad check for the full exception stack area, i.e. it considers
the full exception stack area as valid.
That's wrong in two aspects:
1) It does not check the individual areas one by one
2) #DF, NMI and #MCE are not enabling interrupts which means that a
regular device interrupt cannot happen in their context. In fact if a
device interrupt hits one of those IST stacks that's a bug because some
code path enabled interrupts while handling the exception.
Limit the check to the #DB stack and consider all other IST stacks as
'overflow' or invalid.
