      x86/kprobes: Fix kernel crash when probing .entry_trampoline code · c07a8f8b
      Francis Deslauriers authored
      Disable the kprobe probing of the entry trampoline:
      
      .entry_trampoline is a code area that is used to ensure page table
      isolation between userspace and kernelspace.
      
      At the beginning of the execution of the trampoline, we load the
      kernel's CR3 register. This has the effect of enabling the translation
      of the kernel virtual addresses to physical addresses. Before this
      happens most kernel addresses can not be translated because the running
      process' CR3 is still used.
      
      If a kprobe is placed on the trampoline code before that change of the
      CR3 register happens the kernel crashes because int3 handling pages are
      not accessible.
      
      To fix this, add the .entry_trampoline section to the kprobe blacklist
      to prohibit the probing of code before all the kernel pages are
      accessible.

      x86/cpu_entry_area: Sync cpu_entry_area to initial_page_table · 945fd17a
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      The separation of the cpu_entry_area from the fixmap missed the fact that
      on 32bit non-PAE kernels the cpu_entry_area mapping might not be covered in
      initial_page_table by the previous synchronizations.
      
      This results in suspend/resume failures because 32bit utilizes initial page
      table for resume. The absence of the cpu_entry_area mapping results in a
      triple fault, aka. insta reboot.
      
      With PAE enabled this works by chance because the PGD entry which covers
      the fixmap and other parts incindentally provides the cpu_entry_area
      mapping as well.
      
      Synchronize the initial page table after setting up the cpu entry
      area. Instead of adding yet another copy of the same code, move it to a
      function and invoke it from the various places.
      
      It needs to be investigated if the existing calls in setup_arch() and
      setup_per_cpu_areas() can be replaced by the later invocation from
      setup_cpu_entry_areas(), but that's beyond the scope of this fix.
      
      Fixes: 92a0f81d ("x86/cpu_entry_area: Move it out of the fixmap")
