Commit Message

Helge Deller Feb. 10, 2021, 6:12 a.m. UTC
On the hppa target userspace binaries may call signalfd4() and
eventfd2() with an old TARGET_O_NONBLOCK value of 000200004 instead of
000200000 for the "mask" syscall parameter, in which case the current
emulation doesn't handle the translation to the native O_NONBLOCK value
correctly.

The 0x04 bit is not masked out before the new O_NONBLOCK bit is set and
as such when calling the native syscall errors out with EINVAL.

Fix this by introducing TARGET_O_NONBLOCK_MASK which is used to mask off
all possible bits. This define defaults to TARGET_O_NONBLOCK when not
defined otherwise, so for all other targets the implementation will
behave as before.

This patch needs to be applied on top of my previous two patches.

Bug was found and patch was verified by using qemu-hppa as debian buildd
server on x86_64.

You might also update fcntl_flags_tbl[], the first column is the mask.

No, I intentionally did not updated the fcntl_flags_tbl[] entry.
The check in target_to_host_bitmask() is:
         if ((target_mask & btp->target_mask) == btp->target_bits)
and the table entry is:
  { TARGET_O_NONBLOCK,  TARGET_O_NONBLOCK,  O_NONBLOCK,  O_NONBLOCK,  },

Application may hand in 000200000 *or* 000200004 as value.
So checking (value & 000200000) == 000200000 is correct for both cases.
