sparc32: fix a user-triggerable oops in clear_user()
commit 7780918b36489f0b2f9a3749d7be00c2ceaec513 upstream. Back in 2.1.29 the clear_user() guts (__bzero()) had been merged with memset(). Unfortunately, while all exception handlers had been copied, one of the exception table entries got lost. As the result, clear_user() starting at 128*n bytes before the end of page and spanning between 8 and 127 bytes into the next page would oops when the second page is unmapped. It's trivial to reproduce - all it takes is main() { int fd = open("/dev/zero", O_RDONLY); char *p = mmap(NULL, 16384, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON, -1, 0); munmap(p + 8192, 8192); read(fd, p + 8192 - 128, 192); } which had been oopsing since March 1997. Says something about the quality of test coverage... ;-/ And while today sparc32 port is nearly dead, back in '97 it had been very much alive; in fact, sparc64 had only been in mainline for 3 months by that point...
