A page table upgrade in a kernel section that uses secondary address
mode will mess up the kernel instructions as follows:
Consider the following scenario: two threads are sharing memory.
On CPU1 thread 1 does e.g. strnlen_user(). That gets to
old_fs = enable_sacf_uaccess();
len = strnlen_user_srst(src, size);
and
" la %2,0(%1)\n"
" la %3,0(%0,%1)\n"
" slgr %0,%0\n"
" sacf 256\n"
"0: srst %3,%2\n"
in strnlen_user_srst(). At that point we are in secondary space mode,
control register 1 points to kernel page table and instruction fetching
happens via c1, rather than usual c13. Interrupts are not disabled, for
obvious reasons.
On CPU2 thread 2 does MAP_FIXED mmap(), forcing the upgrade of page table
from 3-level to e.g. 4-level one. We'd allocated new top-level table,
set it up and now we hit this:
notify = 1;
spin_unlock_bh(&mm->page_table_lock);
}
if (notify)
on_each_cpu(__crst_table_upgrade, mm, 0);
OK, we need to actually change over to use of new page table and we
need that to happen in all threads that are currently running. Which
happens to include the thread 1. IPI is delivered and we have
static void __crst_table_upgrade(void *arg)
{
struct mm_struct *mm = arg;
if (current->active_mm == mm)
set_user_asce(mm);
__tlb_flush_local();
}
run on CPU1. That does
static inline void set_user_asce(struct mm_struct *mm)
{
S390_lowcore.user_asce = mm->context.asce;
OK, user page table address updated...
__ctl_load(S390_lowcore.user_asce, 1, 1);
... and control register 1 set to it.
clear_cpu_flag(CIF_ASCE_PRIMARY);
}
IPI is run in home space mode, so it's fine - insns are fetched
using c13, which always points to kernel page table. But as soon
as we return from the interrupt, previous PSW is restored, putting
CPU1 back into secondary space mode, at which point we no longer
get the kernel instructions from the kernel mapping.
The fix is to only fixup the control registers that are currently in use
for user processes during the page table update. We must also disable
interrupts in enable_sacf_uaccess to synchronize the cr and
thread.mm_segment updates against the on_each-cpu.
