Subject: [PATCH v4.1 backport 15/15] powerpc/vdso64: Use double word compare on pointers
Date: Fri, 2 Mar 2018 15:45:49 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180302044549.14930-16-mpe@ellerman.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180302044549.14930-1-mpe@ellerman.id.au>
From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
commit 5045ea37377ce8cca6890d32b127ad6770e6dce5 upstream.
__kernel_get_syscall_map() and __kernel_clock_getres() use cmpli to
check if the passed in pointer is non zero. cmpli maps to a 32 bit
compare on binutils, so we ignore the top 32 bits.
A simple test case can be created by passing in a bogus pointer with
the bottom 32 bits clear. Using a clk_id that is handled by the VDSO,
then one that is handled by the kernel shows the problem:
printf("%d\n", clock_getres(CLOCK_REALTIME, (void *)0x100000000));
printf("%d\n", clock_getres(CLOCK_BOOTTIME, (void *)0x100000000));
And we get:
0
-1
The bigger issue is if we pass a valid pointer with the bottom 32 bits
clear, in this case we will return success but won't write any data
to the pointer.
I stumbled across this issue because the LLVM integrated assembler
doesn't accept cmpli with 3 arguments. Fix this by converting them to
cmpldi.
Fixes: a7f290dad32e ("[PATCH] powerpc: Merge vdso's and add vdso support to 32 bits kernel")
