Subject: [PULL 5/8] linux-user: report EINVAL for a misaligned mincore() start
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2026 11:38:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260925093844.5685-6-deller@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260925093844.5685-1-deller@kernel.org>

From: Igor Shevlyakov <igor@tachyum.com>

mincore(2) rejects a misaligned start address before it looks the range
up, so a start that is both misaligned and unmapped is EINVAL.  Here
lock_user() runs first and fails, and the call reports ENOMEM instead.

When the range is mapped this changes nothing -- the host syscall
receives the misaligned pointer and answers EINVAL by itself -- which is
why only the unmapped case is visibly wrong.

Caught by glibc's misc/test-errno-linux.
