Alexander Gordeev e7ec1d2eac s390/mcck: cleanup user process termination path ... If a machine check interrupt hits while user process is running __s390_handle_mcck() helper function is called directly from the interrupt handler and terminates the current process by calling make_task_dead() routine. The make_task_dead() is not allowed to be called from interrupt context which forces the machine check handler switch to the kernel stack and enable local interrupts first. The __s390_handle_mcck() could also be called to service pending work, but this time from the external interrupts handler. It is the machine check handler that establishes the work and schedules the external interrupt, therefore the machine check interrupt itself should be disabled while reading out the corresponding variable: local_mcck_disable(); mcck = *this_cpu_ptr(&cpu_mcck); memset(this_cpu_ptr(&cpu_mcck), 0, sizeof(mcck)); local_mcck_enable(); However, local_mcck_disable() does not have effect when __s390_handle_mcck() is called directly form the machine check handler, since the machine check interrupt is still disabled. Therefore, it is not the opening bracket to the following local_mcck_enable() function. Simplify the user process termination flow by scheduling the external interrupt and killing the affected process from the interrupt context. Assume a kernel-generated signal is always delivered and ignore a value returned by do_send_sig_info() funciton.
