Subject: [PATCH v7 1/3] x86/entry_32: Do not clobber user EFLAGS.ZF
Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2024 15:25:38 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240925-fix-dosemu-vm86-v7-1-1de0daca2d42@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240925-fix-dosemu-vm86-v7-0-1de0daca2d42@linux.intel.com>

Opportunistic SYSEXIT executes VERW to clear CPU buffers after user EFLAGS
are restored. This can clobber user EFLAGS.ZF.

Move CLEAR_CPU_BUFFERS before the user EFLAGS are restored. This ensures
that the user EFLAGS.ZF is not clobbered.

Fixes: a0e2dab44d22 ("x86/entry_32: Add VERW just before userspace transition")
Reported-by: Jari Ruusu <jariruusu@protonmail.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/yVXwe8gvgmPADpRB6lXlicS2fcHoV5OHHxyuFbB_MEleRPD7-KhGe5VtORejtPe-KCkT8Uhcg5d7-IBw4Ojb4H7z5LQxoZylSmJ8KNL3A8o=@protonmail.com/
