[PATCH RFC] powerpc: catch 32/64bit mix

Serge E. Hallyn serue at us.ibm.com
Wed Nov 25 08:22:50 PST 2009


The arch-specific restore_thread() and restore_cpu() are called after
restore_task_obj()s.  This means that when a 32-bit task calls
sys_restart() with a 64-bit image, we'll be reloading memory mappings
before those are called, and get a 'mysterious' -EINVAL for trying to
map libc into an area > TASK_SIZE.

This patch just adds a set of arch-specific flags to the cpu_hdr_task
struct.  s390 can use this to note TIF_31BIT, and powerpc uses it to
mark TIF_32BIT.

With this patch, a 32-bit task restarting a 64-bit image at least gets
a meaningful message in the user logfile and syslog:
	32-bit task trying to restart a 64-bit one

If we keep this patch, then we'll want to drop bitness_test from
restore_cpu() in powerpc, and maybe use that code instead of the code
I used.  We also may eventually want to actually switch the task
personality.
