From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Thu, 5 Mar 2015 00:09:44 +0000 (+0100) Subject: x86/asm/entry/64: Remove a bogus 'ret_from_fork' optimization X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=956421fbb74c3a6261903f3836c0740187cf038b;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git x86/asm/entry/64: Remove a bogus 'ret_from_fork' optimization 'ret_from_fork' checks TIF_IA32 to determine whether 'pt_regs' and the related state make sense for 'ret_from_sys_call'. This is entirely the wrong check. TS_COMPAT would make a little more sense, but there's really no point in keeping this optimization at all. This fixes a return to the wrong user CS if we came from int 0x80 in a 64-bit task. Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski Cc: Borislav Petkov Cc: Denys Vlasenko Cc: H.
