[PATCH v2] Alpha: unbreak osf_setsysinfo(SSI_NVPAIRS, [SSIN_UACPROC, UAC_SIGBUS])
From: Sergei Trofimovich <hidden>
Date: 2011-08-12 20:58:25
The bug was accidentally found by the following program:
#include <asm/sysinfo.h>
#include <asm/unistd.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
static int setsysinfo(unsigned long op, void *buffer, unsigned long size,
int *start, void *arg, unsigned long flag) {
return syscall(__NR_osf_setsysinfo, op, buffer, size, start, arg, flag);
}
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
short x[10];
unsigned int buf[2] = { SSIN_UACPROC, UAC_SIGBUS, };
setsysinfo(SSI_NVPAIRS, buf, 1, 0, 0, 0);
int *y = (int*) (x+1);
*y = 0;
return 0;
}
The program shoud fail on SIGBUS, but didn't.
The patch is a second part of userspace flag fix:commit 745dd2405e281d96c0a449103bdf6a895048f28c Author: Michael Cree [off-list ref] Date: Mon Nov 30 22:44:40 2009 -0500 Alpha: Rearrange thread info flags fixing two regressions Both regressions fixed by (1) rearranging TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag to be in lower 8 bits of the thread info flags, and (2) making sure that ALPHA_UAC_SHIFT matches the rearrangement of the thread info flags.
Deleted outdated out-of-sync 'UAC_SHIFT' (the cause of bug) in favour of 'ALPHA_UAC_SHIFT'.
