3.16.7-ckt22 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Dave Hansen <dave.han...@linux.intel.com> commit ab6b52947545a5355154f64f449f97af9d05845f upstream. (This should have gone to LKML originally. Sorry for the extra noise, folks on the cc.) Background: Signal frames on x86 have two formats: 1. For 32-bit executables (whether on a real 32-bit kernel or under 32-bit emulation on a 64-bit kernel) we have a 'fpregset_t' that includes the "FSAVE" registers. 2. For 64-bit executables (on 64-bit kernels obviously), the 'fpregset_t' is smaller and does not contain the "FSAVE" state. When creating the signal frame, we have to be aware of whether we are running a 32 or 64-bit executable so we create the correct format signal frame. Problem: save_xstate_epilog() uses 'fx_sw_reserved_ia32' whenever it is called for a 32-bit executable. This is for real 32-bit and ia32 emulation. But, fpu__init_prepare_fx_sw_frame() only initializes 'fx_sw_reserved_ia32' when emulation is enabled, *NOT* for real 32-bit kernels. This leads to really wierd situations where 32-bit programs lose their extended state when returning from a signal handler. The kernel copies the uninitialized (zero) 'fx_sw_reserved_ia32' out to userspace in save_xstate_epilog(). But when returning from the signal, the kernel errors out in check_for_xstate() when it does not see FP_XSTATE_MAGIC1 present (because it was zeroed). This leads to the FPU/XSAVE state being initialized. For MPX, this leads to the most permissive state and means we silently lose bounds violations. I think this would also mean that we could lose *ANY* FPU/SSE/AVX state. I'm not sure why no one has spotted this bug. I believe this was broken by: 72a671ced66d ("x86, fpu: Unify signal handling code paths for x86 and x86_64 kernels") way back in 2012.
