[PATCH v2 3/4] x86/split_lock: Handle #AC exception for split lock
From: Fenghua Yu
Date: Fri Jun 29 2018 - 10:35:05 EST
There may be different considerations on how to handle #AC for split lock,
e.g. how to handle system hang caused by split lock issue in firmware, if
need to emulate faulting instruction, etc. We use a simple method to
handle user and kernel split lock and may extend the method in the future.
When #AC exception for split lock is triggered from user process, the
process is killed by SIGBUS. To execute the process properly, user
application developer needs to fix the split lock issue.
When #AC exception for split lock is triggered from a kernel instruction,
disable #AC for split lock on local CPU and warn the split lock issue.
After the exception, the faulting instruction will be executed and kernel
execution continues. #AC for split lock is only disabled on the local CPU
not globally. It will be re-enabled if the CPU is offline and then online.
Kernel developer should check the warning and fix the split lock issue
one by one. Then further split lock may be captured and fixed.
After bit 29 in MSR_TEST_CTL is set as one in kernel, firmware inherits
the setting when firmware is executed in S4, S5, run time services, SMI,
etc. Split lock issue in firmware triggers #AC and may hang the system
depending on how firmware handles the #AC. It's up to firmware developer
to fix the split lock issues in firmware.
