When the hypervisor receives a SError or synchronous exception (EL2h)
while running with the __kvm_hyp_vector and if ELR_EL2 doesn't point to
an extable entry, it panics indirectly by overwriting ELR with the
address of a panic handler in order for the asm routine it returns to to
ERET into the handler. This is done (instead of a simple function call)
to ensure that the panic handler runs with the SPSel that was in use
when the exception was triggered, necessary to support features such as
the shadow call stack.

However, this clobbers ELR_EL2 for the handler itself. As a result,
hyp_panic(), when retrieving what it believes to be the PC where the
exception happened, actually ends up reading the address of the panic
handler that called it! This results in an erroneous and confusing panic
message where the source of any synchronous exception (e.g. BUG() or
kCFI) appears to be __guest_exit_panic, making it hard to locate the
actual BRK instruction.

Therefore, store the original ELR_EL2 in a per-CPU struct and point the
sysreg to a routine that first restores it to its previous value before
running __guest_exit_panic.

nit: since this also affects SError, $subject seems wrong.

I don't understand this. Who changes SPsel? At any given point, SP_EL0
is that of either the host or the guest, but never the hypervisor's.
If something was touching SP_EL0 behind our back, it would result in
corruption (see 6e977984f6d8 for a bit of rationale about it).

Can you elaborate on *which* per-CPU structure you are using?

The name of the function isn't great. Crucially, 'with_restored_elr'
implies that ELR is already restored, while it is the hunk below that
does the 'restore' part.

Something like '__guest_exit_restore_elr_and_panic' seems more
appropriate.

nit: placing the saving of ELR_EL2 before overriding the sysreg makes
the whole thing a bit more readable, specially given the poor choice
of 'elr_el2' as a variable (visually clashing with 'elr_el2' as a
system register).

Thanks,
