[PATCH v5 02/17] x86/entry/64/compat: Fix bad fast syscall arg failure path

Andy Lutomirski
2015-07-03T19:45:09Z

If user code does SYSCALL32 or SYSENTER without a valid stack, then
our attempt to determine the syscall args will result in a failed
uaccess fault. Previously, we would try to recover by jumping to
the syscall exit code, but we'd run the syscall exit work even
though we never made it to the syscall entry work.

Clean it up by treating the failure path as a non-syscall entry and
exit pair.

This fixes strace's output when running the syscall_arg_fault test.
Without this fix, strace would get out of sync and would fail to
associate syscall entries with syscall exits.
