x86: Introduce TS_COMPAT_RESTART to fix get_nr_restart_syscall()
The comment in get_nr_restart_syscall() says:
* The problem is that we can get here when ptrace pokes
* syscall-like values into regs even if we're not in a syscall
* at all.
Yes, but if not in a syscall then the
status & (TS_COMPAT|TS_I386_REGS_POKED)
check below can't really help:
- TS_COMPAT can't be set
- TS_I386_REGS_POKED is only set if regs->orig_ax was changed by
32bit debugger; and even in this case get_nr_restart_syscall()
is only correct if the tracee is 32bit too.
Suppose that a 64bit debugger plays with a 32bit tracee and
* Tracee calls sleep(2) // TS_COMPAT is set
* User interrupts the tracee by CTRL-C after 1 sec and does
"(gdb) call func()"
* gdb saves the regs by PTRACE_GETREGS
* does PTRACE_SETREGS to set %rip='func' and %orig_rax=-1
* PTRACE_CONT // TS_COMPAT is cleared
* func() hits int3.
* Debugger catches SIGTRAP.
* Restore original regs by PTRACE_SETREGS.
* PTRACE_CONT
get_nr_restart_syscall() wrongly returns __NR_restart_syscall==219, the
tracee calls ia32_sys_call_table[219] == sys_madvise.
Add the sticky TS_COMPAT_RESTART flag which survives after return to user
mode. It's going to be removed in the next step again by storing the
information in the restart block. As a further cleanup it might be possible
to remove also TS_I386_REGS_POKED with that.
Test-case:
$ cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs:[email protected]:/cvs/systemtap co ptrace-tests
$ gcc -o erestartsys-trap-debuggee ptrace-tests/tests/erestartsys-trap-debuggee.c --m32
$ gcc -o erestartsys-trap-debugger ptrace-tests/tests/erestartsys-trap-debugger.c -lutil
$ ./erestartsys-trap-debugger
Unexpected: retval 1, errno 22
erestartsys-trap-debugger: ptrace-tests/tests/erestartsys-trap-debugger.c:421
Fixes: 609c19a ("x86/ptrace: Stop setting TS_COMPAT in ptrace code")
