This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled kselftest/arm64: Fix validatation termination record after EXTRA_CONTEXT to the 6.0-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: kselftest-arm64-fix-validatation-termination-record-.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.0 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit e99b742f17dbde7a4ec125d0ff86b7485a3209d2 Author: Mark Brown <broonie@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Aug 29 17:06:56 2022 +0100 kselftest/arm64: Fix validatation termination record after EXTRA_CONTEXT [ Upstream commit 5c152c2f66f9368394b89ac90dc7483476ef7b88 ] When arm64 signal context data overflows the base struct sigcontext it gets placed in an extra buffer pointed to by a record of type EXTRA_CONTEXT in the base struct sigcontext which is required to be the last record in the base struct sigframe. The current validation code attempts to check this by using GET_RESV_NEXT_HEAD() to step forward from the current record to the next but that is a macro which assumes it is being provided with a struct _aarch64_ctx and uses the size there to skip forward to the next record. Instead validate_extra_context() passes it a struct extra_context which has a separate size field. This compiles but results in us trying to validate a termination record in completely the wrong place, at best failing validation and at worst just segfaulting. Fix this by passing the struct _aarch64_ctx we meant to into the macro.
