      [PATCH] x86_64: TASK_SIZE fixes for compatibility mode processes · 84929801
      Suresh Siddha 提交于
      Appended patch will setup compatibility mode TASK_SIZE properly.  This will
      fix atleast three known bugs that can be encountered while running
      compatibility mode apps.
      
      a) A malicious 32bit app can have an elf section at 0xffffe000.  During
         exec of this app, we will have a memory leak as insert_vm_struct() is
         not checking for return value in syscall32_setup_pages() and thus not
         freeing the vma allocated for the vsyscall page.  And instead of exec
         failing (as it has addresses > TASK_SIZE), we were allowing it to
         succeed previously.
      
      b) With a 32bit app, hugetlb_get_unmapped_area/arch_get_unmapped_area
         may return addresses beyond 32bits, ultimately causing corruption
         because of wrap-around and resulting in SEGFAULT, instead of returning
         ENOMEM.
      
      c) 32bit app doing this below mmap will now fail.
      
        mmap((void *)(0xFFFFE000UL), 0x10000UL, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
      	MAP_FIXED|MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON, 0, 0);
