From 1f474646fdc36b457606bbcd6a3592e6cbd31ac4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "David S. Miller" Date: Fri, 19 Feb 2010 15:19:52 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] sparc64: Fix sun4u execute bit check in TSB I-TLB load. Thanks to testcase and report from Brad Spengler: -------------------- #include typedef int (* _wee)(void); int main(void) { char buf[8] = { '\x81', '\xc7', '\xe0', '\x08', '\x81', '\xe8', '\x00', '\x00' }; _wee wee; printf("%p\n", &buf); wee = (_wee)&buf; wee(); return 0; } -------------------- TSB I-tlb load code tries to use andcc to check the _PAGE_EXEC_4U bit, but that's bit 12 so it gets sign extended all the way up to bit 63 and the test nearly always passes as a result. Use sethi to fix the bug. Signed-off-by: David S.
