Subject: binfmt_elf_fdpic: Fix clear_user() error handling
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.35-rc2~65
X-Git-Url: http://bbs.cooldavid.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e30c7c3b306312c157d67eedd6a01920518b756c;p=net-next-2.6.git

binfmt_elf_fdpic: Fix clear_user() error handling

clear_user() returns the number of bytes that could not be copied rather than
an error code.  So we should return -EFAULT rather than directly returning the
results.

Without this patch, positive values may be returned to elf_fdpic_map_file()
and the following error handlings do not function as expected.

1.
	ret = elf_fdpic_map_file_constdisp_on_uclinux(params, file, mm);
	if (ret < 0)
		return ret;
2.
	ret = elf_fdpic_map_file_by_direct_mmap(params, file, mm);
	if (ret < 0)
		return ret;
