Hi again,

Thanks for your work so far!

Can we see what that was after the macro jungle? Like, the actual
preprocessed code?

Sorry for previous misunderstanding

Here is the code:

#define __put_user_asm(x, addr, err, op) \
__asm__ __volatile__( \
"1: " op "%U2%X2 %1,%2 # put_user\n" \
"2:\n" \
".section .fixup,\"ax\"\n" \
"3: li %0,%3\n" \
" b 2b\n" \
".previous\n" \
EX_TABLE(1b, 3b) \
: "=r" (err) \
: "r" (x), "m<>" (*addr), "i" (-EFAULT), "0" (err))

Yeah I don't see it. I'll have to look at compiler debug dumps, but I
don't have any working 4.9 around, and I cannot reproduce this with
either older or newer compilers.

I reproduced it with 4.8.5


It is complainig that constrain_operands just does not work *at all* on
this "m<>" constraint apparently, which doesn't make much sense.


Here is a small reproducer:

#include <linux/elf.h>
#include <linux/ptrace.h>
#include <linux/uaccess.h>

struct mcontext {
elf_gregset_t32 mc_gregs;
elf_fpregset_t mc_fregs;
unsigned int mc_pad[2];
elf_vrregset_t32 mc_vregs __attribute__((__aligned__(16)));
elf_vsrreghalf_t32 mc_vsregs __attribute__((__aligned__(16)));
};

int save_general_regs(struct pt_regs *regs, struct mcontext __user *frame)
{
elf_greg_t64 *gregs = (elf_greg_t64 *)regs;
int i;

for (i = 0; i <= PT_RESULT; i ++) {
if (i == 14)
i = 32;
if (__put_user((unsigned int)gregs[i], &frame->mc_gregs[i]))
return -EFAULT;
}
return 0;
}


If you remove the "if i == 14 ..." you get no failure.

Preprocessor result:

int save_general_regs(struct pt_regs *regs, struct mcontext *frame)
{
elf_greg_t64 *gregs = (elf_greg_t64 *)regs;
int i;

for (i = 0; i <= 43; i ++) {
if (i == 14)
i = 32;
if (({ long __pu_err; __typeof__(*((&frame->mc_gregs[i]))) *__pu_addr = ((&frame->mc_gregs[i])); __typeof__(*((&frame->mc_gregs[i]))) __pu_val = ((__typeof__(*(&frame->mc_gregs[i])))((unsigned int)gregs[i])); __typeof__(sizeof(*(&frame->mc_gregs[i]))) __pu_size = (sizeof(*(&frame->mc_gregs[i]))); if (!(((unsigned long)__pu_addr) >= 0x8000000000000000ul)) might_fault(); (void)0; do { allow_write_to_user(__pu_addr, __pu_size); do { __pu_err = 0; switch (__pu_size) { case 1: __asm__ __volatile__( "1: " "stb" "%U2%X2 %1,%2 # put_user\n" "2:\n" ".section .fixup,\"ax\"\n" "3: li %0,%3\n" " b 2b\n" ".previous\n" ".section __ex_table,\"a\";" " " ".balign 4;" " " ".long (1b) - . ;" " " ".long (3b) - . ;" " " ".previous" " " : "=r" (__pu_err) : "r" (__pu_val), "m<>" (*__pu_addr), "i" (-14), "0" (__pu_err)); break; case 2: __asm__ __volatile__( "1: " "sth" "%U2%X2 %1,%2 # put_user\n" "2:\n" ".section .fixup,\"ax\"\n" "3: li %0,%3\n" " b 2b\n" ".previous\n" ".section __ex_table,\"a\";" " " ".balign 4;" " " ".long (1b) - . ;" " " ".long (3b) - . ;" " " ".previous" " " : "=r" (__pu_err) : "r" (__pu_val), "m<>" (*__pu_addr), "i" (-14), "0" (__pu_err)); break; case 4: __asm__ __volatile__( "1: " "stw" "%U2%X2 %1,%2 # put_user\n" "2:\n" ".section .fixup,\"ax\"\n" "3: li %0,%3\n" " b 2b\n" ".previous\n" ".section __ex_table,\"a\";" " " ".balign 4;" " " ".long (1b) - . ;" " " ".long (3b) - . ;" " " ".previous" " " : "=r" (__pu_err) : "r" (__pu_val), "m<>" (*__pu_addr), "i" (-14), "0" (__pu_err)); break; case 8: __asm__ __volatile__( "1: " "std" "%U2%X2 %1,%2 # put_user\n" "2:\n" ".section .fixup,\"ax\"\n" "3: li %0,%3\n" " b 2b\n" ".previous\n" ".section __ex_table,\"a\";" " " ".balign 4;" " " ".long (1b) - . ;" " " ".long (3b) - . ;" " " ".previous" " " : "=r" (__pu_err) : "r" (__pu_val), "m<>" (*__pu_addr), "i" (-14), "0" (__pu_err)); break; default: __put_user_bad(); } } while (0); prevent_write_to_user(__pu_addr, __pu_size); } while (0); __pu_err; }))
