Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] x86/mce: Avoid infinite loop for copy from user recovery
Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2021 13:44:50 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210111214452.1826-2-tony.luck@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210111214452.1826-1-tony.luck@intel.com>

Recovery action when get_user() triggers a machine check uses the fixup
path to make get_user() return -EFAULT.  Also queue_task_work() sets up
so that kill_me_maybe() will be called on return to user mode to send a
SIGBUS to the current process.

But there are places in the kernel where the code assumes that this
EFAULT return was simply because of a page fault. The code takes some
action to fix that, and then retries the access. This results in a second
machine check.

While processing this second machine check queue_task_work() is called
again. But since this uses the same callback_head structure that
was used in the first call, the net result is an entry on the
current->task_works list that points to itself. When task_work_run()
is called it loops forever in this code:

		do {
			next = work->next;
			work->func(work);
			work = next;
			cond_resched();
		} while (work);

Add a "mce_busy" flag bit to detect this situation and panic
when it happens.
