I too don't understand, memcpy(mm->saved_auxv, user_auxv, len) will
copy 1 byte...
And why task_lo

What? It won't save everything, only the 1 byte. What am I not see

There is another (non-security) one. Compat 32-bit process will report
2 longs to

Applied directly, since I'm just about to tag rc3 and was just looking
that there were no last-minute pull requests.
Andrew, no need to pick it up into your queue.
Side note: I think we should return -EINVAL more aggressively: right
now we fill up potentially all of user_auxv[] and return success
prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_AUXV, addr, 1);
will copy 1 byte from userspace to (quite big) on-stack array
and then stash everything to mm->saved_auxv.
AT_NULL terminator will be inserted at the very end.
/proc/*/auxv handler will find that AT_NULL terminator
and copy original stack content
14 matches
