From 246f2d2ee1d715e1077fc47d61c394569c8ee692 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H. Peter Anvin" Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2014 14:03:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86-32, espfix: Remove filter for espfix32 due to race It is not safe to use LAR to filter when to go down the espfix path, because the LDT is per-process (rather than per-thread) and another thread might change the descriptors behind our back. Fortunately it is always *safe* (if a bit slow) to go down the espfix path, and a 32-bit LDT stack segment is extremely rare. Signed-off-by: H.
