[ Upstream commit d19d638b1e6cf746263ef60b7d0dee0204d8216a ]
Modern (fortified) memcpy() prefers to avoid writing (or reading) beyond
the end of the addressed destination (or source) struct member:
In function ‘fortify_memcpy_chk’,
inlined from ‘syscall_get_arguments’ at ./arch/x86/include/asm/syscall.h:85:2,
inlined from ‘populate_seccomp_data’ at kernel/seccomp.c:258:2,
inlined from ‘__seccomp_filter’ at kernel/seccomp.c:1231:3:
./include/linux/fortify-string.h:580:25: error: call to ‘__read_overflow2_field’ declared with attribute warning: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Werror=attribute-warning]
580 | __read_overflow2_field(q_size_field, size);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As already done for x86_64 and compat mode, do not use memcpy() to
extract syscall arguments from struct pt_regs but rather just perform
direct assignments. Binary output differences are negligible, and actually
ends up using less stack space:
- sub $0x84,%esp
+ sub $0x6c,%esp
and less text size:
text data bss dec hex filename

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
