Subject: [PATCH] x86/fpu: Delay instruction pointer fixup until after after warning
Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2025 12:33:13 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250618193313.17F0EF2E@davehans-spike.ostc.intel.com> (raw)
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>
Right now, if XRSTOR fails a console message like this is be printed:
Bad FPU state detected at restore_fpregs_from_fpstate+0x9a/0x170, reinitializing FPU registers.
However, the text location (...+0x9a in this case) is the instruction
*AFTER* the XRSTOR. The highlighted instruction in the "Code:" dump
also points one instruction late.
The reason is that the "fixup" moves RIP up to pass the bad XRSTOR
and keep on running after returning from the #GP handler. But it
does this fixup before warning.
The resulting warning output is nonsensical because it looks like
e non-FPU-related instruction is #GP'ing.
Do not fix up RIP until after printing the warning.
