From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2015 22:40:39 +0000 (-0800) Subject: x86/asm/entry/64: Remove a bogus 'ret_from_fork' optimization X-Git-Tag: v4.1-rc1~182^2~104 X-Git-Url: https://asedeno.scripts.mit.edu/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1e3fbb8a1d814f35e2e689cf87714d38d9f3564d;p=linux.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.
