When the flush is needed the code jumps # out-of-line to do the flush, and then intends to jump back to continue # the syscall return. # # However the branch back to label 1b doesn't return to the correct # location, instead branching back just prior to the return to userspace, # causing bogus register values to be used by the rfi. # # The breakage was introduced by commit 6f76a01173cc # ("powerpc/syscall: implement system call entry/exit logic in C for PPC32") which # inadvertently removed the "1" label and reused it elsewhere. # # Fix it by adding named local labels in the correct locations. Note that # the return label needs to be outside the ifdef so that CONFIG_PPC_47x=n # compiles. # # Fixes: 6f76a01173cc ("powerpc/syscall: implement system call entry/exit logic in C for PPC32") # Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v5.12+ # Reported-by: Eddie James # Tested-by: Eddie James # Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/fdaadc46-7476-9237-e104-1d2168526e72@linux.ibm.com/ # Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman # Link: https://msgid.link/20231010114750.847794-1-mpe@ellerman.id.au # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-gcc --version # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-ld --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 6865920b3f27b31bb9280088f3a837fd2090a327 # make -s -j 40 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_ppc44x_defconfig_powerpc-gcc5 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- ppc44x_defconfig # < make -s -j 40 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_ppc44x_defconfig_powerpc-gcc5 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- help # make -s -j 40 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_ppc44x_defconfig_powerpc-gcc5 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- olddefconfig # make -s -j 40 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_ppc44x_defconfig_powerpc-gcc5 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-5.5.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- Completed OK # rm -rf /kisskb/build/powerpc-fixes_ppc44x_defconfig_powerpc-gcc5 # Build took: 0:00:39.631000
