This does rely on interrupts\nremaining disabled for the entire duration of the switch.\n\nThis condition is guaranteed for normal process creation and context\nswitching between already running processes, because both 'prev' and\n'next' already have interrupts disabled in their saved copies of the\nstatus register.\n\nThe situation is different for newly created kernel threads. The status\nregister is set to PS_S in copy_thread(), which does leave the IPL at 0.\nUpon restoring the 'next' thread's status register in switch_to() aka\nresume(), interrupts then become enabled prematurely. resume() then\nreturns via ret_from_kernel_thread() and schedule_tail() where run queue\nlock is released (see finish_task_switch() and finish_lock_switch()).\n\nA timer interrupt calling scheduler_tick() before the lock is released\nin finish_task_switch() will find the lock already taken, with the\ncurrent task as lock owner. This causes a spinlock recursion warning as\nreported by Guenter Roeck.\n\nAs far as I can ascertain, this race has been opened in commit\n533e6903bea0 (\"m68k: split ret_from_fork(), simplify kernel_thread()\")\nbut I haven't done a detailed study of kernel history so it may well\npredate that commit.\n\nInterrupts cannot be disabled in the saved status register copy for\nkernel threads (init will complain about interrupts disabled when\nfinally starting user space). Disable interrupts temporarily when\nswitching the tasks' register sets in resume().\n\nNote that a simple oriw 0x700,%sr after restoring sr is not enough here\n- this leaves enough of a race for the 'spinlock recursion' warning to\nstill be observed.\n\nTested on ARAnyM and qemu (Quadra 800 emulation)."}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo":

El cambio de contexto se encarga de retener el propietario del bloqueo correcto durante el cambio de las tareas 'anteriores' a las 'siguientes'. Esto depende de que las interrupciones permanezcan deshabilitadas durante toda la duraci\u00f3n del cambio. Esta condici\u00f3n est\u00e1 garantizada para la creaci\u00f3n normal de procesos y el cambio de contexto entre procesos que ya se est\u00e1n ejecutando, porque tanto 'anterior' como 'siguiente' ya tienen las interrupciones deshabilitadas en sus copias guardadas del registro de estado. La situaci\u00f3n es diferente para los subprocesos del kernel reci\u00e9n creados. El registro de estado se establece en PS_S en copy_thread(), lo que deja la IPL en 0. Al restaurar el registro de estado del 'siguiente' subproceso en switch_to() tambi\u00e9n conocido como resume(), las interrupciones se habilitan prematuramente. resume() luego regresa a trav\u00e9s de ret_from_kernel_thread() y Schedule_tail() donde se libera el bloqueo de la cola de ejecuci\u00f3n (consulte Finish_task_switch() y Finish_lock_switch()).
