Yes, I will. But is the patch that only modifies a comment acceptable? >> Signed-off-by: AKASHI Takahiro <takahiro.akashi@linaro.org> >> --- >> arch/arm64/include/asm/syscall.h | 6 ++++++ >> 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) >> >> diff --git a/arch/arm64/include/asm/syscall.h b/arch/arm64/include/asm/syscall.h >> index c89821f..01bb8cc 100644 >> --- a/arch/arm64/include/asm/syscall.h >> +++ b/arch/arm64/include/asm/syscall.h >> @@ -63,6 +63,9 @@ static inline void syscall_get_arguments(struct task_struct *task, >> unsigned int i, unsigned int n, >> unsigned long *args) >> { >> + if (n == 0) >> + return; >> + >> if (i + n > SYSCALL_MAX_ARGS) { >> unsigned long *args_bad = args + SYSCALL_MAX_ARGS - i; >> unsigned int n_bad = n + i - SYSCALL_MAX_ARGS; >> @@ -86,6 +89,9 @@ static inline void syscall_set_arguments(struct task_struct *task, >> unsigned int i, unsigned int n, >> const unsigned long *args) >> { >> + if (n == 0) >> + return; >> + > > Looks sensible.

But is the patch that only modifies a comment acceptable? Well, if the comment is wrong is should either be fixed or removed. Leaving it alone just serves to confuse other architectures trying to implement the backend API. Of course, if the comment is *correct*, then the tracer is broken, but we can have that discussion off the back of the patch (just be sure to CC the right people). > > Looks sensible.

In ftrace_syscall_enter(), syscall_get_arguments(..., 0, n, ...) if (i == 0) { <handle orig_x0> ...; n--;} memcpy(..., n * sizeof(args[0])); If 'number of arguments(n)' is zero and 'argument index(i)' is also zero in syscall_get_arguments(), none of arguments should be copied by memcpy(). Otherwise 'n--' can be a big positive number and unexpected amount of data will be copied. Tracing system calls which take no argument, say sync(void), may hit this case and eventually make the system corrupted. This patch fixes the issue both in syscall_get_arguments() and syscall_set_arguments(). Please note, however, that asm-generic/syscall.h says, * syscall_get_arguments - extract system call parameter values * @i: argument index [0,5] * @n: number of arguments; n+i must be [1,6]. and so we'd better change the caller's code(ftrace_syscall_enter).
