Subject: [patch 25/38] hrtimer: fix *rmtp handling in hrtimer_nanosleep()
Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2008 16:31:09 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080223003109.GZ7268@suse.de> (raw)

[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 5655 bytes --]

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

------------------
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>

commit 080344b98805553f9b01de0f59a41b1533036d8d

Spotted by Pavel Emelyanov and Alexey Dobriyan.

hrtimer_nanosleep() sets restart_block->arg1 = rmtp, but this rmtp points to
the local variable which lives in the caller's stack frame. This means that
if sys_restart_syscall() actually happens and it is interrupted as well, we
don't update the user-space variable, but write into the already dead stack
frame.

Introduced by commit 04c227140fed77587432667a574b14736a06dd7f
hrtimer: Rework hrtimer_nanosleep to make sys_compat_nanosleep easier

Change the callers to pass "__user *rmtp" to hrtimer_nanosleep(), and change
hrtimer_nanosleep() to use copy_to_user() to actually update *rmtp.

Small problem remains. man 2 nanosleep states that *rtmp should be written if
nanosleep() was interrupted (it says nothing whether it is OK to update *rmtp
if nanosleep returns 0), but (with or without this patch) we can dirty *rem
even if nanosleep() returns 0.

NOTE: this patch doesn't change compat_sys_nanosleep(), because it has other
bugs. Fixed by the next patch.
