There are very few explicit set_fs(USER_DS) calls and they are on the thread exit path (or exec). That's unless we try to make a generic set_fs(USER_DS) addition to something like setup_new_exec() and we wouldn't need the SET_PERSONALITY changes: diff --git a/fs/exec.c b/fs/exec.c index c4010b8207a1..54cc537f5986 100644 --- a/fs/exec.c +++ b/fs/exec.c @@ -1226,6 +1226,9 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOL(would_dump); void setup_new_exec(struct linux_binprm * bprm) { + /* set the address limit for the new executable */ + set_fs(USER_DS); + arch_pick_mmap_layout(current->mm); /* This is the point of no return */ > #define get_fs() (current_thread_info()->addr_limit) > > static inline void set_fs(mm_segment_t fs) > diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/process.c b/arch/arm64/kernel/process.c > index 8062482..2b25930 100644 > --- a/arch/arm64/kernel/process.c > +++ b/arch/arm64/kernel/process.c > @@ -211,17 +211,13 @@ static void tls_thread_flush(void) > { > asm ("msr tpidr_el0, xzr"); > > - if (is_compat_task()) { > - current->thread.tp_value = 0; > - > - /* > - * We need to ensure ordering between the shadow state and the > - * hardware state, so that we don't corrupt the hardware state > - * with a stale shadow state during context switch. > - */ > - barrier(); > - asm ("msr tpidrro_el0, xzr"); > - } > + /* > + * We need to ensure ordering between the shadow state and the > + * hardware state, so that we don't corrupt the hardware state > + * with a stale shadow state during context switch. > + */ > + barrier(); > + asm ("msr tpidrro_el0, xzr"); > } Why did you dropped tp_value initialisation? Context switching on native 64-bit tasks rely on copying the tpidr_el0 in and out of tp_value. However, compat tasks use the read-only tpidrro_el0 register set explicitly via a system call. Until this call happens, the TLS register would contain some garbage after the thread has been switched back in. -- Catalin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arch" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
