In 30d6e0a4190d ("futex: Remove duplicated code and fix undefined behaviour"), I let FUTEX_WAKE_OP to fail on invalid op. Namely when op should be considered as shift and the shift is out of range (< 0 or > 31).
But strace's test suite does this madness: futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xa0caffee); futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xbadfaced); futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xffffffff); When I pick the first 0xa0caffee, it decodes as: 0x80000000 & 0xa0caffee: oparg is shift 0x70000000 & 0xa0caffee: op is FUTEX_OP_OR 0x0f000000 & 0xa0caffee: cmp is FUTEX_OP_CMP_EQ 0x00fff000 & 0xa0caffee: oparg is sign-extended 0xcaf = -849 0x00000fff & 0xa0caffee: cmparg is sign-extended 0xfee = -18 That means the op tries to do this: (futex |= (1 << (-849))) == -18 which is completely bogus. The new check of op in the code is: if (encoded_op & (FUTEX_OP_OPARG_SHIFT << 28)) { if (oparg < 0 || oparg > 31) return -EINVAL; oparg = 1 << oparg; } which results obviously in the "Invalid argument" errno: ----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<---- FAIL: futex =========== futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xa0caffee) = -1: Invalid argument futex.test: failed test: ../futex failed with code 1 ----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<---- So let us soften the failure to print only a (ratelimited) message and return 0 silently in these cases until userspace keeps up.
