Subject: [PATCH v2] xen: x86_32: do not enable iterrupts when returning from exception in interrupt context
Date: Thu,  1 Sep 2011 13:46:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1314877615-18280-1-git-send-email-imammedo@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4E5EB794.7050909@goop.org>

If vmalloc page_fault happens inside of interrupt handler with interrupts
disabled then on exit path from exception handler when there is no pending
interrupts, the following code (arch/x86/xen/xen-asm_32.S:112):

	cmpw $0x0001, XEN_vcpu_info_pending(%eax)
	sete XEN_vcpu_info_mask(%eax)

will enable interrupts even if they has been previously disabled according to
eflags from the bounce frame (arch/x86/xen/xen-asm_32.S:99)

	testb $X86_EFLAGS_IF>>8, 8+1+ESP_OFFSET(%esp)
	setz XEN_vcpu_info_mask(%eax)

Solution is in setting XEN_vcpu_info_mask only when it should be set
according to
	cmpw $0x0001, XEN_vcpu_info_pending(%eax)
but not clearing it if there isn't any pending events.

Reproducer for bug is attached to RHBZ 707552
