  4. Subject: [PATCH] ARM: start_thread: restore registers on ELF load for noMMU
    5. 

  5. 

  6. The binfmt_elf-fdpic loader is capable of loading constant displacement
    7. 

  7. ELF format binaries (like those compiled -pie) on noMMU systems as well
    8. 

  8. as elf-fdpic format binaries. The traditional ELF loader cannot be
    9. 

  9. enabled on noMMU systems.
    10. 

  10. 

  11. Commit 5e588114329c ("ARM: start_thread(): don't always clear all regs")
    12. 

  12. fixed the start_thread() code so that it maintains the required
    13. 

  13. elf-fdpic registers through to the new process, but it only does that if
    14. 

  14. current has its personality FDPIC_FUNCPTRS bit set. That is true for
    15. 

  15. elf-fdpic format binaries but will not be true for non-fdpic ELF
    16. 

  16. binaries.
    17. 

  17. 

  18. Modify the test of the FDPIC_FUNCPTRS personality bit to also carry out
    19. 

  19. the register restore if this is a noMMU system. This is not perfect,
    20. 

  20. since it will also preserve these registers on noMMU systems for all
    21. 

  21. binary format types (could be flat format for example). That won't break
    22. 

  22. anything, but it is potentially leaking some information into the new
    23. 

  23. process. But for the noMMU case we need those start time registers set to
    24. 

  24. be able to finalize the runtime loading of the -pie style ELF binary
    25. 

  25. (carry out its segment and dynamic relocation processing).
    26. 

  26. 

  27. Unfortunately the FDPIC_FUNCPTRS flag cannot just be enabled for all
    28. 

  28. elf-fdpic loaded binaries. That personality bit is used for other things
    29. 

  29. like the controlling the changed behavior for signal handling.
    30. 

  30. 

  31. There is no change in behavior for normal ELF loading on MMU systems.
    32. 

  32. A -pie style ELF binary built for noMMU systems can be load and run using
    33. 

  33. the usual ELF loader on an MMU system (elf-fdpic loader not required in
    34. 

  34. this case).
    35.
