ARM: 9410/1: vfp: Use asm volatile in fmrx/fmxr macros
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Floating point instructions in userspace can crash some arm kernels
built with clang/LLD 17.0.6:

    Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
    ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt ]---

This is a minimal userspace reproducer on a Raspberry Pi Zero W:

    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <math.h>

    int main(void)
    {
            double v = 1.0;
            printf("%fn", NAN + *(volatile double *)&v);
            return 0;
    }

Another way to consistently trigger the oops is:

    calvin@raspberry-pi-zero-w ~$ python -c "import json"

The bug reproduces only when the kernel is built with DYNAMIC_DEBUG=n,
because the pr_debug() calls act as barriers even when not activated.

This is the output from the same kernel source built with the same
compiler and DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y, where the userspace reproducer works as
expected:

    VFP: bounce: trigger ec532b17 fpexc c0000780
    VFP: emulate: INST=0xee377b06 SCR=0x00000000
    VFP: bounce: trigger eef1fa10 fpexc c0000780
    VFP: emulate: INST=0xeeb40b40 SCR=0x00000000
    VFP: raising exceptions 30000000

    calvin@raspberry-pi-zero-w ~$ ./vfp-reproducer
    nan

Crudely grepping for vmsr/vmrs instructions in the otherwise nearly
idential text for vfp_support_entry() makes the problem obvious:

    vmlinux.llvm.good [0xc0101cb8] <+48>:  vmrs   r7, fpexc
    vmlinux.llvm.good [0xc0101cd8] <+80>:  vmsr   fpexc, r0

    vmlinux.llvm.good [0xc0101eb8] <+560>: vmrs   r10, fpinst2

    vmlinux.llvm.bad  [0xc0101d6c] <+228>: vmsr   fpexc, r0
    vmlinux.llvm.bad  [0xc0101d70] <+232>: vmrs   r0, fpsid
    vmlinux.llvm.bad  [0xc0101da4] <+284>: vmrs   r10, fpinst

I think LLVM's reordering is valid as the code is currently written: the
compiler doesn't know the instructions have side effects in hardware.

Fix by using "asm volatile" in fmxr() and fmrx(), so they cannot be
reordered with respect to each other. The original compiler now produces
working kernels on my hardware with DYNAMIC_DEBUG=n.

This is the relevant piece of the diff of the vfp_support_entry() text,
from the original oopsing kernel to a working kernel with this patch:

         vmrs r0, fpscr
         tst r0, #4096
         bne 0xc0101d48
         tst r0, #458752
         beq 0xc0101ecc
         orr r7, r7, #536870912
         ldr r0, [r4, #0x3c]
         mov r9, torvalds#16
        -vmrs r6, fpscr
         orr r9, r9, #251658240
         add r0, r0, #4
         str r0, [r4, #0x3c]
         mvn r0, torvalds#159
         sub r0, r0, #-1207959552
         and r0, r7, r0
         vmsr fpexc, r0
         vmrs r0, fpsid
        +vmrs r6, fpscr
         and r0, r0, #983040
         cmp r0, #65536
         bne 0xc0101d88
