[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 18/18] fs/signalfd.c: fix inconsistent return codes for signalfd4
From: Sasha Levin
Date: Wed Aug 19 2020 - 20:07:12 EST
From: Helge Deller <deller@xxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit a089e3fd5a82aea20f3d9ec4caa5f4c65cc2cfcc ]
The kernel signalfd4() syscall returns different error codes when called
either in compat or native mode. This behaviour makes correct emulation
in qemu and testing programs like LTP more complicated.
Fix the code to always return -in both modes- EFAULT for unaccessible user
memory, and EINVAL when called with an invalid signal mask.
