[PATCH 5.15 208/279] powerpc/signal32: Fix sigset_t copy

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

 



From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5499802b2284331788a440585869590f1bd63f7f upstream.

The conversion from __copy_from_user() to __get_user() by
commit d3ccc9781560 ("powerpc/signal: Use __get_user() to copy
sigset_t") introduced a regression in __get_user_sigset() for
powerpc/32. The bug was subsequently moved into
unsafe_get_user_sigset().

The bug is due to the copied 64 bit value being truncated to
32 bits while being assigned to dst->sig[0]

The regression was reported by users of the Xorg packages distributed in
Debian/powerpc --

    "The symptoms are that the fb screen goes blank, with the backlight
    remaining on and no errors logged in /var/log; wdm (or startx) run
    with no effect (I tried logging in in the blind, with no effect).
    And they are hard to kill, requiring 'kill -KILL ...'"

Fix the regression by copying each word of the sigset, not only the
first one.

__get_user_sigset() was tentatively optimised to copy 64 bits at once
in order to minimise KUAP unlock/lock impact, but the unsafe variant
doesn't suffer that, so it can just copy words.
