[PATCH 4.6 021/100] crypto: sha1-mb - make sha1_x8_avx2() conform to C function ABI

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon May 30 2016 - 17:26:22 EST


4.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4a6b27b79da5ccc6b85dc05bbe6a091e58be896a upstream.

Megha Dey reported a kernel panic in crypto code. The problem is that
sha1_x8_avx2() clobbers registers r12-r15 without saving and restoring
them.

Before commit aec4d0e301f1 ("x86/asm/crypto: Simplify stack usage in
sha-mb functions"), those registers were saved and restored by the
callers of the function. I removed them with that commit because I
didn't realize sha1_x8_avx2() clobbered them.

Fix the potential undefined behavior associated with clobbering the
registers and make the behavior less surprising by changing the
registers to be callee saved/restored to conform with the C function
call ABI.

Also, rdx (aka RSP_SAVE) doesn't need to be saved: I verified that none
of the callers rely on it being saved, and it's not a callee-saved
register in the C ABI.

Fixes: aec4d0e301f1 ("x86/asm/crypto: Simplify stack usage in sha-mb functions")
