Commit 3cded4179481 ("x86/paravirt: Optimize native
pv_lock_ops.vcpu_is_preempted()") introduced a paravirt op with bool
return type [*]
It turns out that the PVOP_CALL*() macros miscompile when rettype is
bool. Code that looked like:
83 ef 01 sub $0x1,%edi
ff 15 32 a0 d8 00 callq *0xd8a032(%rip) # ffffffff81e28120 <pv_lock_ops+0x20>
84 c0 test %al,%al
ended up looking like so after PVOP_CALL1() was applied:
83 ef 01 sub $0x1,%edi
48 63 ff movslq %edi,%rdi
ff 14 25 20 81 e2 81 callq *0xffffffff81e28120
48 85 c0 test %rax,%rax
Note how it tests the whole of %rax, even though a typical bool return
function only sets %al, like:
0f 95 c0 setne %al
c3 retq
This is because ____PVOP_CALL() does:
__ret = (rettype)__eax;
and while regular integer type casts truncate the result, a cast to
bool tests for any !0 value. Fix this by explicitly truncating to
sizeof(rettype) before casting.
[*] The actual bug should've been exposed in commit 446f3dc8cc0a
("locking/core, x86/paravirt: Implement vcpu_is_preempted(cpu) for KVM
and Xen guests") but that didn't properly implement the paravirt call.
