[RFC PATCH v8 1/3] selftests/x86: sysret_rip: Handle syscall on the Intel FRED architecture
From: Ammar Faizi
Date: Sun Feb 19 2023 - 22:03:39 EST
The current selftest asserts %r11 == %rflags after the 'syscall' returns
to userspace. However, such an assertion doesn't apply to the Intel FRED
system because, in that system, the 'syscall' instruction does not set
%r11=%rflags and %rcx=%rip.
Handle the FRED system case. Now, test that:
A) 'syscall' in a FRED system preserves %rcx and %r11.
B) 'syscall' in a non-FRED system sets %rcx=%rip and %r11=%rflags.
Note for the '__raise()' helper:
Those tests must manipulate registers before the 'syscall' instruction
is invoked. However, the current 'raise()' function from libc cannot
accomplish it. Therefore, create a syscall wrapper in inline Assembly to
control them.
Fixes: 660602140103 ("selftests/x86: Add a selftest for SYSRET to noncanonical addresses")
