From 1eec6cd08b4feb72a73aff468ab72bdd21e1dc61 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yong Zhang Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2011 09:54:54 +0800 Subject: MIPS: Compat: Use 32-bit wrapper for compat_sys_futex. We can't trust userspace to pass signed-extend arguments. Not correctly sign-extended arguments to futex-wait result in architecturally undefined operation of 32-bit arithmetic instructions. For example, if 'val' is too big and bit-31 is 1, the caller may enter endless loop at: futex_wait_setup() { ... if (uval != val) { queue_unlock(q, *hb); ret = -EWOULDBLOCK; ... } Signed-off-by: Yong Zhang To: linux-mips@linux-mips.org To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/2714/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle --- arch/mips/kernel/scall64-o32.S | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'arch/mips/kernel/scall64-o32.S') diff --git a/arch/mips/kernel/scall64-o32.S b/arch/mips/kernel/scall64-o32.S index 4d7c982..1d81316 100644 --- a/arch/mips/kernel/scall64-o32.S +++ b/arch/mips/kernel/scall64-o32.S @@ -441,7 +441,7 @@ sys_call_table: PTR sys_fremovexattr /* 4235 */ PTR sys_tkill PTR sys_sendfile64 - PTR compat_sys_futex + PTR sys_32_futex PTR compat_sys_sched_setaffinity PTR compat_sys_sched_getaffinity /* 4240 */ PTR compat_sys_io_setup -- cgit v1.1
