From f0a97af83f6287357dcc100c859ec0066f164f32 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2015 22:03:21 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86/traps: Weaken context tracking entry assertions We were asserting that we were all the way in CONTEXT_KERNEL when exception handlers were called. While having this be true is, I think, a nice goal (or maybe a variant in which we assert that we're in CONTEXT_KERNEL or some new IRQ context), we're not quite there. In particular, if an IRQ interrupts the SYSCALL prologue and the IRQ handler in turn causes an exception, the exception entry will be called in RCU IRQ mode but with CONTEXT_USER. This is okay (nothing goes wrong), but until we fix up the SYSCALL prologue, we need to avoid warning.
