From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Mon, 10 Apr 2017 15:14:28 +0000 (+0200) Subject: x86/vdso: Plug race between mapping and ELF header setup X-Git-Tag: v3.12.74~61 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3ebb1b606820857986b4310e5012f78352478774;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git x86/vdso: Plug race between mapping and ELF header setup commit 6fdc6dd90272ce7e75d744f71535cfbd8d77da81 upstream. The vsyscall32 sysctl can racy against a concurrent fork when it switches from disabled to enabled: arch_setup_additional_pages() if (vdso32_enabled) --> No mapping sysctl.vsysscall32() --> vdso32_enabled = true create_elf_tables() ARCH_DLINFO_IA32 if (vdso32_enabled) { --> Add VDSO entry with NULL pointer Make ARCH_DLINFO_IA32 check whether the VDSO mapping has been set up for the newly forked process or not.
