this has been brought into a shape which is maintainable and actually
works.
This final version was done by Sasha Levin who took it up after Intel
dropped the ball. Sasha discovered that the SGX (sic!) offerings out there
ship rogue kernel modules enabling FSGSBASE behind the kernels back which
opens an instantanious unpriviledged root hole.
The FSGSBASE instructions provide a considerable speedup of the context
switch path and enable user space to write GSBASE without kernel
interaction. This enablement requires careful handling of the exception
entries which go through the paranoid entry path as they cannot longer rely
on the assumption that user GSBASE is positive (as enforced via prctl() on
non FSGSBASE enabled systemn). All other entries (syscalls, interrupts and
exceptions) can still just utilize SWAPGS unconditionally when the entry
comes from user space. Converting these entries to use FSGSBASE has no
benefit as SWAPGS is only marginally slower than WRGSBASE and locating and
retrieving the kernel GSBASE value is not a free operation either. The real
benefit of RD/WRGSBASE is the avoidance of the MSR reads and writes.
The changes come with appropriate selftests and have held up in field
testing against the (sanitized) Graphene-SGX driver.
