This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled metag: Fix KSTK_EIP() and KSTK_ESP() macros to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt9. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From a21f68bd8c6d53f82bf2b6de722c586a3eaf912d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com> Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2015 12:25:25 +0000 Subject: metag: Fix KSTK_EIP() and KSTK_ESP() macros commit c2996cb29bfb73927a79dc96e598a718e843f01a upstream. The KSTK_EIP() and KSTK_ESP() macros should return the user program counter (PC) and stack pointer (A0StP) of the given task. These are used to determine which VMA corresponds to the user stack in /proc/<pid>/maps, and for the user PC & A0StP in /proc/<pid>/stat. However for Meta the PC & A0StP from the task's kernel context are used, resulting in broken output. For example in following /proc/<pid>/maps output, the 3afff000-3b021000 VMA should be described as the stack: # cat /proc/self/maps ... 100b0000-100b1000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] 3afff000-3b021000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 And in the following /proc/<pid>/stat output, the PC is in kernel code (1074234964 = 0x40078654) and the A0StP is in the kernel heap (1335981392 = 0x4fa17550): # cat /proc/self/stat 51 (cat) R ... 1335981392 1074234964 ... Fix the definitions of KSTK_EIP() and KSTK_ESP() to use task_pt_regs(tsk)->ctx rather than (tsk)->thread.kernel_context. This gets the registers from the user context stored after the thread info at the base of the kernel stack, which is from the last entry into the kernel from userland, regardless of where in the kernel the task may have been interrupted, which results in the following more correct /proc/<pid>/maps output: # cat /proc/self/maps ... 0800b000-08070000 r-xp 00000000 00:02 207 /lib/libuClibc-0.9.34-git.so ... 100b0000-100b1000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] 3afff000-3b021000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] And /proc/<pid>/stat now correctly reports the PC in libuClibc (134320308 = 0x80190b4) and the A0StP in the [stack] region (989864576 = 0x3b002280): # cat /proc/self/stat 51 (cat) R ... 989864576 134320308 ...
