hrtimer: fix *rmtp handling in hrtimer_nanosleep()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Spotted by Pavel Emelyanov and Alexey Dobriyan.

hrtimer_nanosleep() sets restart_block->arg1 = rmtp, but this rmtp points to
the local variable which lives in the caller's stack frame. This means that
if sys_restart_syscall() actually happens and it is interrupted as well, we
don't update the user-space variable, but write into the already dead stack
frame.

Introduced by commit 04c2271
hrtimer: Rework hrtimer_nanosleep to make sys_compat_nanosleep easier

Change the callers to pass "__user *rmtp" to hrtimer_nanosleep(), and change
hrtimer_nanosleep() to use copy_to_user() to actually update *rmtp.

Small problem remains. man 2 nanosleep states that *rtmp should be written if
nanosleep() was interrupted (it says nothing whether it is OK to update *rmtp
if nanosleep returns 0), but (with or without this patch) we can dirty *rem
even if nanosleep() returns 0.

NOTE: this patch doesn't change compat_sys_nanosleep(), because it has other
bugs. Fixed by the next patch.
