syscalls/x86: Use 'struct pt_regs' based syscall calling for IA32_EMULATION and x32
Extend ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER for i386 emulation and for x32 on 64-bit x86. For x32, all we need to do is to create an additional stub for each compat syscall which decodes the parameters in x86-64 ordering, e.g.: asmlinkage long __compat_sys_x32_xyzzy(struct pt_regs *regs) { return c_SyS_xyzzy(regs->di, regs->si, regs->dx); } For i386 emulation, we need to teach compat_sys_*() to take struct pt_regs as its only argument, e.g.: asmlinkage long __compat_sys_ia32_xyzzy(struct pt_regs *regs) { return c_SyS_xyzzy(regs->bx, regs->cx, regs->dx); } In addition, we need to create additional stubs for common syscalls (that is, for syscalls which have the same parameters on 32-bit and 64-bit), e.g.: asmlinkage long __sys_ia32_xyzzy(struct pt_regs *regs) { return c_sys_xyzzy(regs->bx, regs->cx, regs->dx); } This approach avoids leaking random user-provided register content down the call chain. This patch is based on an original proof-of-concept | From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> | Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> and was split up and heavily modified by me, in particular to base it on ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER.
