Subject: [PATCH v3] m68k: Fix kernel_clone_args.flags in m68k_clone()
Date: Sun, 11 Aug 2024 10:12:29 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3463f1e5d4e95468dc9f3368f2b78ffa7b72199b.1723335149.git.fthain@linux-m68k.org> (raw)

Stan Johnson recently reported a failure from the 'dump' command:

  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Fri Aug  9 23:37:15 2024
  DUMP: Dumping /dev/sda (an unlisted file system) to /dev/null
  DUMP: Label: none
  DUMP: Writing 10 Kilobyte records
  DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
  DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]
  DUMP: estimated 3595695 blocks.
  DUMP: Context save fork fails in parent 671

The dump program uses the clone syscall with the CLONE_IO flag, that is,
flags == 0x80000000. When that value is promoted from long int to u64 by
m68k_clone(), it undergoes sign-extension. The new value includes
CLONE_INTO_CGROUP so the validation in cgroup_css_set_fork() fails and
the syscall returns -EBADF. Avoid sign-extension by casting to u32.

Reported-by: Stan Johnson <userm57@yahoo.com>
Closes: https://lists.debian.org/debian-68k/2024/08/msg00000.html
Fixes: 6aabc1facdb2 ("m68k: Implement copy_thread_tls()")
Signed-off-by: Finn Thain <fthain@linux-m68k.org>

Changed since v1:
 - Cast to u32 instead of using lower_32_bits() as suggested by Geert.
Changed since v2:
 - Commit log ammended with -EBADF instead of -EBADFD.
