[PATCH 6.1.y] riscv: uprobes: Add missing fence.i after building the XOL buffer
Posted by Rahul Sharma 2 days, 7 hours ago
From: Björn Töpel <bjorn@rivosinc.com>

[ Upstream commit 7d1d19a11cfbfd8bae1d89cc010b2cc397cd0c48 ]

The XOL (execute out-of-line) buffer is used to single-step the
replaced instruction(s) for uprobes. The RISC-V port was missing a
proper fence.i (i$ flushing) after constructing the XOL buffer, which
can result in incorrect execution of stale/broken instructions.

This was found running the BPF selftests "test_progs:
uprobe_autoattach, attach_probe" on the Spacemit K1/X60, where the
uprobes tests randomly blew up.
