[PATCH 2/3] fs/binfmts: Better handling of binfmt loops

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



With these changes, when a binfmt loop is encountered,
the ELOOP will propogate back to the 0 depth. At this point the
argv and argc values will be reset to what they were originally and an
attempt is made to continue with the following binfmt handlers.

Caveats:
- binfmt_misc is skipped as a whole. To allow for a more generic
  solution that works for any binfmt without a lot of duplicated code
  and added complexity, the error detection code is applied on the
  binfmt level.
- This is a fallback solution. It attempts to restore the state to allow
  executing most binaries without side effects, but it may not work for
  everything and should not be depended on for regular usage.

My (rough, but functional) test scripts for this issue are available at:
    https://gist.github.com/zml2008/6075418
