So this problem isn't specific to Android's libc. >From objdump -d /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: 00000000000f4db0 : f4db0: 64 8b 04 25 18 00 00 mov %fs:0x18,%eax f4db7: 00 f4db8: 85 c0 test %eax,%eax f4dba: 75 14 jne f4dd0 f4dbc: b8 13 00 00 00 mov $0x13,%eax f4dc1: 0f 05 syscall ... There's some code for pthread cancellation, but no zeroing of the upper half of the fd and vlen arguments, which are in %edi and %edx respectively. But the glibc function prototype uses 'int' for them, not 'unsigned long' 'ssize_t readv(int fd, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt);'. So the high halves of the fd and iovcnt registers can contain garbage. Or at least that's what gcc (9.3.0) and clang (9.0.1) assume; they both compile the following void g(unsigned int x); void f(unsigned long x) { g(x); } into f() making a tail call to g(), without zeroing the top half of %rdi. Also note the following program succeeds on Linux 5.9 on x86_64. On kernels that have this bug, it should fail. (I couldn't get it to actually fail, so it must depend on the compiler and/or the kernel config...) #include #include #include #include #include int main() { int fd = open("/dev/zero", O_RDONLY); char buf[1000]; struct iovec iov = { .iov_base = buf, .iov_len = sizeof(buf) }; long ret; ret = syscall(__NR_readv, fd, &iov, 0x100000001); if (ret < 0) perror("readv failed"); else printf("read %ld bytes\n", ret); } I think the right fix is to change the readv() (and writev(), etc.) syscalls to take 'unsigned int' rather than 'unsigned long', as that is what the users are assuming... - Eric _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
