I have reproduced this on qemu, not managed to get the real hardwre
working with this branch yet.
I have a working hypothesis now, having added debug to check the
sstatus.SR_SUM flag and reviewed the assembly, I think this is
what is happening:
C code of "put_user(func(), address)" is generating code to do:
1: __enable_user_access();
2: cpu_reg = func();
3: assembly for *address = cpu_reg;
4: __disable_user_access();
I think the call to func() with all the sanitisers enabled allow
the func() to possibly schedule out. The __swtich_to() code does
not restore the original status registers which means that if
there is IO during the sleep SR_SUM may end up being cleared and
never re-set. We get back to 3 and fault as 2 cleared the result of 1.
It is very possible no-one has seen this before as generally the
functions involved in feeding put_user() are fairly small and thus
this system is both under load and has some reason to schedule then
this bug has probably been rare to unseen.
I think the correct solution is to store the SR_SUM bit status in
the thread_struct and make __switch_to() save/restore this when
changing between tasks/threads. Trying to re-order the code to
force swapping of 1 and 2 may reduce the bug's window.
Further thinking of the order of 1 and 2 is that we should probably
fix that order so that func() is not run with the user-space access
protection disabled.
I'll try and make some sort of of small test case to avoid having
to run syz-stress to provoke this.
