[PATCH x86 for review III] [12/29] x86_64: 32-bit ptrace mangles sixth system call argument

[Andi Kleen]

From: Jeff Dike <jdike@xxxxxxxxxxx>

The 32-bit sysenter entry point mangles the sixth system call argument for
both 32-bit and 64-bit ptrace.  In both cases, strace shows the frame
pointer (ebp) as the sixth argument.

Here's a snippet of a 64-bit strace of a 32-bit test program which
calls mmap through sysenter:

mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0xfff00fcc) = 0xfffffffff7f7a000
fstat64(0x1, 0xfff008d8)                = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0xfff0089c) = 0xfffffffff7f79000
write(1, "mmap returns 0xf7f7a000\n", 24mmap returns 0xf7f7a000
) = 24

Here's a 32-bit strace of the same program:

mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0xffc224ec) = 0xf7fcb000
fstat64(1, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0620, st_rdev=makedev(136, 1), ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0xffc21dbc) = 0xf7fca000
write(1, "mmap returns 0xf7fcb000\n", 24mmap returns 0xf7fcb000
) = 24

The first mmap is the one made by the test - its final argument (the
offset) is 0, but strace shows 0xfff00fcc, which is the value of ebp.
The second is a guilty bystander which is also showing the bug.

The patch below copies %r9 (where the sixth argument has been
stashed) into the RBP slot of pt_regs before syscall_trace_enter is
called.  This fixes ptrace.

To allow a successful return to userspace, the original value of rbp
must be restored.  This is done by storing the current value of rbp
into the RBP slot of pt_regs before the RESTORE_REST.

With this patch, the straces now look like this:

64-bit:

mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xfffffffff7f5a000
fstat64(0x1, 0xff926ee8)                = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xfffffffff7f59000
write(1, "mmap returns 0xf7f5a000\n", 24mmap returns 0xf7f5a000
) = 24

32-bit:

mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xf7fa9000
fstat64(1, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0620, st_rdev=makedev(136, 1), ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xf7fa8000
write(1, "mmap returns 0xf7fa9000\n", 24mmap returns 0xf7fa9000
) = 24
