From feed36cde0a10adb957445a37e48f957f30b2273 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Fri, 3 Jul 2015 12:44:25 -0700 Subject: x86/entry: Add enter_from_user_mode() and use it in syscalls Changing the x86 context tracking hooks is dangerous because there are no good checks that we track our context correctly. Add a helper to check that we're actually in CONTEXT_USER when we enter from user mode and wire it up for syscall entries. Subsequent patches will wire this up for all non-NMI entries as well. NMIs are their own special beast and cannot currently switch overall context tracking state. Instead, they have their own special RCU hooks. This is a tiny speedup if !CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING (removes a branch) and a tiny slowdown if CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACING (adds a layer of indirection). Eventually, we should fix up the core context tracking code to supply a function that does what we want (and can be much simpler than user_exit), which will enable us to get rid of the extra call.
