"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nx86/kexec: Disable KCOV instrumentation after load_segments()\n\nThe load_segments() function changes segment registers, invalidating GS base\n(which KCOV relies on for per-cpu data). When CONFIG_KCOV is enabled, any\nsubsequent instrumented C code call (e.g. native_gdt_invalidate()) begins\ncrashing the kernel in an endless loop.\n\nTo reproduce the problem, it's sufficient to do kexec on a KCOV-instrumented\nkernel:\n\n $ kexec -l /boot/otherKernel\n $ kexec -e\n\nThe real-world context for this problem is enabling crash dump collection in\nsyzkaller. For this, the tool loads a panic kernel before fuzzing and then\ncalls makedumpfile after the panic. This workflow requires both CONFIG_KEXEC\nand CONFIG_KCOV to be enabled simultaneously.\n\nAdding safeguards directly to the KCOV fast-path (__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc())\nis also undesirable as it would introduce an extra performance overhead.\n\nDisabling instrumentation for the individual functions would be too fragile,\nso disable KCOV instrumentation for the entire machine_kexec_64.c and\nphysaddr.c. If coverage-guided fuzzing ever needs these components in the\nfuture, other approaches should be considered.\n\nThe problem is not relevant for 32 bit kernels as CONFIG_KCOV is not supported\nthere.\n\n [ bp: Space out comment for better readability. ]"
