Subject: [PATCH] Circumvent bug in uClibc-ng syscall() on x86_64 systems
|
||
|
|
||
|
On uClibc at least up to v1.0.32, syscall() for x86_64 is defined in
|
||
|
libc/sysdeps/linux/x86_64/syscall.S as
|
||
|
|
||
|
syscall:
|
||
|
movq %rdi, %rax /* Syscall number -> rax. */
|
||
|
movq %rsi, %rdi /* shift arg1 - arg5. */
|
||
|
movq %rdx, %rsi
|
||
|
movq %rcx, %rdx
|
||
|
movq %r8, %r10
|
||
|
movq %r9, %r8
|
||
|
movq 8(%rsp),%r9 /* arg6 is on the stack. */
|
||
|
syscall /* Do the system call. */
|
||
|
cmpq $-4095, %rax /* Check %rax for error. */
|
||
|
jae __syscall_error /* Branch forward if it failed. */
|
||
|
ret /* Return to caller. */
|
||
|
|
||
|
And __syscall_error is defined in
|
||
|
libc/sysdeps/linux/x86_64/__syscall_error.c as
|
||
|
|
||
|
int __syscall_error(void) attribute_hidden;
|
||
|
int __syscall_error(void)
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
register int err_no __asm__ ("%rcx");
|
||
|
__asm__ ("mov %rax, %rcx\n\t"
|
||
|
"neg %rcx");
|
||
|
__set_errno(err_no);
|
||
|
return -1;
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
Notice that __syscall_error returns -1 as a 32-bit int in %rax, a 64-bit
|
||
|
register i.e. 0x00000000ffffffff (decimal 4294967295). When this value
|
||
|
is compared to -1 in _sys_chk_seccomp_flag_kernel() the result is false,
|
||
|
leading the function to always return 0.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Prevent the error by coercing the return value of syscall() to int in a
|
||
|
temporary variable before comparing it to -1. We could use just an (int)
|
||
|
cast but the variable makes the code more readable and the machine code
|
||
|
generated by the compiler is the same in both cases.
|
||
|
|
||
|
All other syscall() invocations were inspected and they either already
|
||
|
coerce the result to int or do not compare it to -1.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The same problem probably occurs on other 64-bit systems but so far only
|
||
|
x86_64 was tested.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A bug report is being submitted to uClibc.
