[PATCH 1/2] KVM: x86: Fix potential put_fpu() w/o load_fpu() on MPX platform

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Unlike most state managed by XSAVE, MPX is initialized to zero on INIT.
Because INITs are usually recognized in the context of a VCPU_RUN call,
kvm_vcpu_reset() puts the guest's FPU so that the FPU state is resident
in memory, zeros the MPX state, and reloads FPU state to hardware.  But,
in the unlikely event that an INIT is recognized during
kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_get_mpstate() via kvm_apic_accept_events(),
kvm_vcpu_reset() will call kvm_put_guest_fpu() without a preceding
kvm_load_guest_fpu() and corrupt the guest's FPU state (and possibly
userspace's FPU state as well).

Given that MPX is being removed from the kernel[*], fix the bug with the
simple-but-ugly approach of loading the guest's FPU during
KVM_GET_MP_STATE.

[*] See commit f240652b6032b ("x86/mpx: Remove MPX APIs").

Tagged for stable since failure would trigger a WARN in the FPU subsystem.
I highly doubt anything outside of syzkaller would actually hit this.
