Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
s390: Revert support for DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS<br />
<br />
load_unaligned_zeropad() reads eight bytes from unaligned addresses and may<br />
cross page boundaries. It handles exceptions which may happen if reading<br />
from the second page results in an exception.<br />
<br />
For pages which are donated to the Ultravisor for secure execution purposes<br />
the do_secure_storage_access() exception handler however does not handle<br />
such exceptions correctly. Such an exception may result in an endless<br />
exception loop which will never be resolved.<br />
<br />
An attempt to fix this [1] turned out to be not sufficient. For now revert<br />
load_unaligned_zeropad() until this problem has been resolved in a proper<br />
way.<br />
<br />
Note that the implementation of load_unaligned_zeropad() itself is<br />
correct. The revert is just a temporary workaround until there is complete<br />
fix for secure storage access exceptions.<br />
<br />
