x86/mm: Make in_compat_syscall() work during exec
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The x86 mmap() code selects the mmap base for an allocation depending on
the bitness of the syscall. For 64bit sycalls it select mm->mmap_base and
for 32bit mm->mmap_compat_base.

On execve the registers of the task invoking exec() are copied to the child
pt_regs. So child->pt_regs->orig_ax contains the execve syscall number of the
parent.

exec() calls mmap() which in turn uses in_compat_syscall() to check whether
the mapping is for a 32bit or a 64bit task. The decision is made on the
following criteria:

  ia32	  child->thread.status & TS_COMPAT
   x32	  child->pt_regs.orig_ax & __X32_SYSCALL_BIT
  ia64	  !ia32 && !x32 

child->thread.status is corretly set up in set_personality_*(), but the
syscall number in child->pt_regs.orig_ax is left unmodified.

Therefore the parent/child combinations work or fail in the following way:

Parent Child Child->thread_status  child->pt_regs.orig_ax  in_compat()  Works
ia64    ia64   TS_COMPAT == 0	   __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0     false       Y
ia64    ia32   TS_COMPAT == 1	   __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0     true        Y
ia64     x32   TS_COMPAT == 0	   __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0     false       N
ia32    ia64   TS_COMPAT == 0	   __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0     false       Y
ia32    ia32   TS_COMPAT == 1	   __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0     true        Y
ia32     x32   TS_COMPAT == 0	   __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 0     false       N
 x32    ia64   TS_COMPAT == 0	   __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 1     true        N
 x32    ia32   TS_COMPAT == 1	   __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 1     true        Y
 x32     x32   TS_COMPAT == 0	   __X32_SYSCALL_BIT == 1     true        Y

Make set_personality_*() store the syscall number incl. __X32_SYSCALL_BIT
which corresponds to the newly started ELF executable in the childs
pt_regs, i.e. pretend that the exec was invoked from a task with the same
executable format.

So both thread.status and pt_regs.orig_ax correspond to the new ELF format
and in_compat_syscall() returns the correct result.
