Subject: [PATCH] x86: sgx: Don't track poisoned pages for reclaiming
Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2025 16:01:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250211150150.519006-1-andrew.zaborowski@intel.com> (raw)

Pages used by an enclave only get page->poison set in
arch_memory_failure() but stay on sgx_active_page_list.
page->poison is not checked in the reclaimer logic meaning that a page could be
reclaimed and go through ETRACK, EBLOCK and EWB.  This can lead to the
firmware receiving and MCE in one of those operations and going into
"unbreakable shutdown" and triggering a kernel panic on remaining cores.

Remove the affected page from sgx_active_page_list but don't add it
immediately to &node->sgx_poison_page_list to keep most of the current
semantics.  It'll be added to &node->sgx_poison_page_list later in
sgx_encl_release()->sgx_free_epc_page()

Tested with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING as suggested by Tony Luck.
