[PATCH] MIPS: Check the range of the syscall number for o32 syscall on 64bit kernel.

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

 



From: Vlad Malov <Vlad.Malov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

On a 64 bit kernel if an o32 syscall was made with a syscall number
less than 4000, we would read the function from outside of the bounds
of the syscall table.  This led to non-deterministic behavior
including system crashes.

While we were at it we reworked the 32 bit version as well to use
fewer instructions.
