[PATCH 12/13] futex: Fix incorrect should_fail_futex() handling

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

 



From: Mateusz Nosek <mateusznosek0@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 921c7ebd1337d1a46783d7e15a850e12aed2eaa0 upstream.

If should_futex_fail() returns true in futex_wake_pi(), then the 'ret'
variable is set to -EFAULT and then immediately overwritten. So the failure
injection is non-functional.

Fix it by actually leaving the function and returning -EFAULT.

The Fixes tag is kinda blury because the initial commit which introduced
failure injection was already sloppy, but the below mentioned commit broke
it completely.
