Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] x86/vdso: choose the right GDT_ENTRY_CPUNODE for 32-bit getcpu() on 64-bit kernel
Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2023 23:17:58 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230322061758.10639-1-xin3.li@intel.com> (raw)
The vDSO getcpu() reads CPU ID from the GDT_ENTRY_CPUNODE entry when the RDPID
instruction is not available. And GDT_ENTRY_CPUNODE is defined as 28 on 32-bit
Linux kernel and 15 on 64-bit. But the 32-bit getcpu() on 64-bit Linux kernel
is compiled with 32-bit Linux kernel GDT_ENTRY_CPUNODE, i.e., 28, beyond the
64-bit Linux kernel GDT limit. Thus, it just fails _silently_.
When BUILD_VDSO32_64 is defined, choose the 64-bit Linux kernel GDT definitions
to compile the 32-bit getcpu().
Fixes: 877cff5296faa6e ("x86/vdso: Fake 32bit VDSO build on 64bit compile for vgetcpu")

Change since v1:
* Define all of the GDT_ENTRY_* macros in *one* place, then make that *one*
place depend on BUILD_VDSO32_64 (Dave Hansen).
