The following commit has been merged into the x86/fsgsbase branch of tip: Commit-ID: 96b2371413e8f636a5f25c42a933af21c35a2a41 Gitweb: https://git.kernel.org/tip/96b2371413e8f636a5f25c42a933af21c35a2a41 Author: Chang S. Bae <chang.seok.bae@xxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Thu, 28 May 2020 16:13:55 -04:00 Committer: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Thu, 18 Jun 2020 15:47:03 +02:00 x86/entry/64: Switch CR3 before SWAPGS in paranoid entry When FSGSBASE is enabled, the GSBASE handling in paranoid entry will need to retrieve the kernel GSBASE which requires that the kernel page table is active. As the CR3 switch to the kernel page tables (PTI is active) does not depend on kernel GSBASE, move the CR3 switch in front of the GSBASE handling. Comment the EBX content while at it. No functional change. [ tglx: Rewrote changelog and comments ] Signed-off-by: Chang S.
