Subject: [ 26/31] sparc64: do not clobber personality flags in sys_sparc64_personality()
Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2012 17:04:33 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121026000217.605739577@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20121026000214.941721299@linuxfoundation.org>
3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
[ Upstream commit a27032eee8cb6e16516f13c8a9752e9d5d4cc430 ]
There are multiple errors in how sys_sparc64_personality() handles
personality flags stored in top three bytes.
- directly comparing current->personality against PER_LINUX32 doesn't work
in cases when any of the personality flags stored in the top three bytes
are used.
- directly forcefully setting personality to PER_LINUX32 or PER_LINUX
discards any flags stored in the top three bytes
Fix the first one by properly using personality() macro to compare only
PER_MASK bytes.
Fix the second one by setting only the bits that should be set, instead of
overwriting the whole value.
