Subject: [03/08] fix ia64 syscall auditing
Date: Tue, 05 Apr 2005 16:46:48 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050405164647.GD17299@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20050405164539.GA17299@kroah.com>

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

Attached is a patch against David's audit.17 kernel that adds checks
for the TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT thread flag to the ia64 system call and
signal handling code paths.  The patch enables auditing of system
calls set up via fsys_bubble_down, as well as ensuring that
audit_syscall_exit() is called on return from sigreturn.

Neglecting to check for TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT at these points results in
incorrect information in audit_context, causing frequent system panics
when system call auditing is enabled on an ia64 system.

I have tested this patch and have seen no problems with it.
