[PATCH v2] proc: fix test for "vsyscall=xonly" boot option

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

 



Booting with vsyscall=xonly results in the following vsyscall VMA:

	ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff601000 --xp ... [vsyscall]\n

Test does read from fixed vsyscall address to determine if kernel
supports vsyscall page but it doesn't work because, well, vsyscall
page is execute only.

Fix test by trying to execute from the first byte of the page which
contains gettimeofday() stub. This should work because vsyscall
entry points have stable addresses by design.

	Alexey, avoiding parsing .config, /proc/config.gz and
	/proc/cmdline at all costs.

	v2: add rcx, r11 clobbers, how could I forget

	I'm not sure who reported what, so please add tested-by and
	reported-by lines.
