[PATCH 3.18 41/60] MIPS: Save static registers before sysmips

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

 



3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 49955d84cd9ccdca5a16a495e448e1a06fad9e49 upstream.

The MIPS sysmips system call handler may return directly from the
MIPS_ATOMIC_SET case (mips_atomic_set()) to syscall_exit. This path
restores the static (callee saved) registers, however they won't have
been saved on entry to the system call.

Use the save_static_function() macro to create a __sys_sysmips wrapper
function which saves the static registers before calling sys_sysmips, so
that the correct static register state is restored by syscall_exit.

Fixes: f1e39a4a616c ("MIPS: Rewrite sysmips(MIPS_ATOMIC_SET, ...) in C with inline assembler")
