![]() Mikhail reported the following lockdep splat:
WARNING: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected
CPU 0/KVM/10284 just changed the state of lock:
000000000d538a88 (&st->lock){+...}, at:
speculative_store_bypass_update+0x10b/0x170
but this lock was taken by another, HARDIRQ-safe lock
in the past:
(&(&sighand->siglock)->rlock){-.-.}
and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.
Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&st->lock);
local_irq_disable();
lock(&(&sighand->siglock)->rlock);
lock(&st->lock);
<Interrupt>
lock(&(&sighand->siglock)->rlock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
The code path which connects those locks is:
speculative_store_bypass_update()
ssb_prctl_set()
do_seccomp()
do_syscall_64()
In svm_vcpu_run() speculative_store_bypass_update() is called with
interupts enabled via x86_virt_spec_ctrl_set_guest/host().
This is actually a false positive, because GIF=0 so interrupts are
disabled even if IF=1; however, we can easily move the invocations of
x86_virt_spec_ctrl_set_guest/host() into the interrupt disabled region to
cure it, and it's a good idea to keep the GIF=0/IF=1 area as small
and self-contained as possible.
Fixes:

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
