<title>x86/mpx, selftests: Only check bounds-vs-shadow when we keep shadow</title>

<id>5f2173e056b2a5c215b862f136192744c447844e</id>
<content type='text'>
The check between the hardware state and our shadow of it is
checked in the signal handler for all bounds exceptions,
even for the ones where we don't keep the shadow up2date.
This is a problem because when no shadow is kept the handler
fails at this point and hides the real reason of the
exception.

Move the check into the code-path evaluating normal bounds
exceptions to prevent this.

<title>selftests/x86/ldt_gdt_32: Work around a glibc sigaction() bug</title>
<updated>2017-03-23T07:25:07+00:00</updated>

<name>Andy Lutomirski</name>
<email>luto@kernel.org</email>

<published>2017-03-22T21:32:29+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=65973dd3fd31151823f4b8c289eebbb3fb7e6bc0'/>
<id>65973dd3fd31151823f4b8c289eebbb3fb7e6bc0</id>
<content type='text'>
i386 glibc is buggy and calls the sigaction syscall incorrectly.

This is asymptomatic for normal programs, but it blows up on
programs that do evil things with segmentation.  The ldt_gdt
self-test is an example of such an evil program.

This doesn't appear to be a regression -- I think I just got lucky
with the uninitialized memory that glibc threw at the kernel when I
wrote the test.

This hackish fix manually issues sigaction(2) syscalls to undo the
damage.  Without the fix, ldt_gdt_32 segfaults; with the fix, it
passes for me.

Kernel erases R8..R11 registers prior returning to userspace
from int80:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/1/164

GCC can reuse these registers and doesn't expect them to change
during syscall invocation. I met this kind of bug in CRIU once
GCC 6.1 and CLANG stored local variables in those registers
and the kernel zerofied them during syscall:

  https://github.com/xemul/criu/commit/990d33f1a1cdd17bca6c2eb059ab3be2564f7fa2

By that reason I suggest to add those registers to clobbers
in selftests.  Also, as noted by Andy - removed unneeded clobber
for flags in INT $0x80 inline asm.
