SDM mentioned that "The MXCSR has several reserved bits, and attempting to write
a 1 to any of these bits will cause a general-protection exception(#GP) to be
generated". The syzkaller forks' testcase overrides xsave area w/ random values
and steps on the reserved bits of MXCSR register. The damaged MXCSR register
values of guest will be restored to SSEx MXCSR register before vmentry. This
patch fixes it by catching userspace override MXCSR register reserved bits w/
random values and bails out immediately.

<title>x86/fpu: Rename XSAVE macros</title>

<id>d91cab78133d33b1dfd3d3fa7167fcbf74fb5f99</id>
<content type='text'>
There are two concepts that have some confusing naming:
 1. Extended State Component numbers (currently called
    XFEATURE_BIT_*)
 2. Extended State Component masks (currently called XSTATE_*)

The numbers are (currently) from 0-9.  State component 3 is the
bounds registers for MPX, for instance.

But when we want to enable "state component 3", we go set a bit
in XCR0.  The bit we set is 1&lt;&lt;3.  We can check to see if a
state component feature is enabled by looking at its bit.

The current 'xfeature_bit's are at best xfeature bit _numbers_.
Calling them bits is at best inconsistent with ending the enum
list with 'XFEATURES_NR_MAX'.

This patch renames the enum to be 'xfeature'.  These also
happen to be what the Intel documentation calls a "state
component".

We also want to differentiate these from the "XSTATE_*" macros.
The "XSTATE_*" macros are a mask, and we rename them to match.

These macros are reasonably widely used so this patch is a
wee bit big, but this really is just a rename.

The only non-mechanical part of this is the

	s/XSTATE_EXTEND_MASK/XFEATURE_MASK_EXTEND/

We need a better name for it, but that's another patch.

<title>x86/fpu: Move XSAVE-disabling code to a helper</title>

When we want to _completely_ disable XSAVE support as far as
the kernel is concerned, we have a big set of feature flags
to clear.  We currently only do this in cases where the user
asks for it to be disabled, but we are about to expand the
places where we do it to handle errors too.

Move the code in to xstate.c, and put it in the xstate.h
header.  We will use it in the next patch too.

<title>x86/fpu/math-emu: Fix math-emu boot crash</title>

<id>5fc960380ea44ba529c78b558b6cd4250e5e1958</id>
<content type='text'>
On a math-emu bootup the following crash occurs:

	Initializing CPU#0
	------------[ cut here ]------------
	kernel BUG at arch/x86/kernel/traps.c:779!
	invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
	[...]
	EIP is at do_device_not_available+0xe/0x70
	[...]
	Call Trace:
	 [&lt;c18238e6&gt;] error_code+0x5a/0x60
	 [&lt;c1002bd0&gt;] ? math_error+0x140/0x140

	 [&lt;c1b542b4&gt;] i386_start_kernel+0x82/0x86

The reason is that in the following commit:

  b1276c48e91b ("x86/fpu: Initialize fpregs in fpu__init_cpu_generic()")

I failed to consider math-emu's limitation that it cannot execute the
FNINIT instruction in kernel mode.

The long term fix might be to allow math-emu to execute (certain) kernel
mode FPU instructions, but for now apply the safe (albeit somewhat ugly)
fix: initialize the emulation state explicitly without trapping out to
the FPU emulator.

<content type='text'>
Don't burden architectures without dynamic task_struct sizing
with the overhead of dynamic sizing.

Also optimize the x86 code a bit by caching task_struct_size.

<title>x86/fpu, sched: Dynamically allocate 'struct fpu'</title>

<id>0c8c0f03e3a292e031596484275c14cf39c0ab7a</id>
<content type='text'>
The FPU rewrite removed the dynamic allocations of 'struct fpu'.
But, this potentially wastes massive amounts of memory (2k per
task on systems that do not have AVX-512 for instance).

Instead of having a separate slab, this patch just appends the
space that we need to the 'task_struct' which we dynamically
allocate already.  This saves from doing an extra slab
allocation at fork().

The only real downside here is that we have to stick everything
and the end of the task_struct.  But, I think the
BUILD_BUG_ON()s I stuck in there should keep that from being too
fragile.

<title>x86/fpu: Fix boot crash in the early FPU code</title>
<updated>2015-07-04T08:05:56+00:00</updated>

<id>b96fecbfa8c88b057e2bbf10021521c232bb3650</id>
<content type='text'>
Jan Kara and Thomas Gleixner reported boot crashes in the FPU
code:

  general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP
  RIP: 0010:[&lt;ffffffff81048a6c&gt;]  [&lt;ffffffff81048a6c&gt;] mxcsr_feature_mask_init+0x1c/0x40

  2b:*  0f ae 85 00 fe ff ff    fxsave -0x200(%rbp)

and bisected it down to the following FPU commit:

   91a8c2a5b43f ("x86/fpu: Clean up and fix MXCSR handling")

The reason is that the on-stack FPU registers state variable,
used by the FXSAVE instruction, did not have the required
minimum alignment of 16 bytes, causing the general protection
fault.

This is most likely a GCC bug in older GCC versions, but the
offending commit also added a bogus extra 32-byte alignment
(which GCC ignored too).

So fix this bug by making the variable static again, but also
mark it __initdata this time, because fpu__init_system_mxcsr()
is now an __init function.
