Hi! I must admit I didn't follow close the overall series (so can't
comment much here :) but I have a slightly unrelated question -- is
there a way to figure out if task is running in x32 mode say with
some ptrace or procfs sign?
You should be able to figure out of a *syscall* is x32 by simply
looking at bit 30 in the syscall number. (This is unlike i386, which
is currently not reflected in ptrace.)
The process could be stopped with PTRACE_SEIZE and I think, it'll not
have x32 syscall bit at that moment.
I guess the question comes from that we're releasing CRIU 3.0 with
32-bit C/R and some other cool stuff, but we don't support x32 yet.
As we don't want release a thing that we aren't properly testing.
So for a while we should error on dumping x32 applications.
I think, the best way for now is to check physicall address of vdso
from /proc/.../pagemap. If it's CONFIG_VDSO=n kernel, I guess we could
also add check for %ds from ptrace's register set. For x32 it's set to
__USER_DS, while for native it's 0 (looking at start_thread() and
compat_start_thread()). The application can simply change it without
any consequence - so it's not very reliable, we could only warn at
catching it, not rely on this.
Do we actually have an x32 per-task mode at all? If so, maybe we can
just remove it on top of Dmitry's series.
