Subject: [PATCH v2 resend] seccomp: Make syscall skipping and nr changes more consistent

This fixes two issues that could cause incompatibility between
kernel versions:

 - If a tracer uses SECCOMP_RET_TRACE to select a syscall number
   higher than the largest known syscall, emulate the unknown
   vsyscall by returning -ENOSYS.  (This is unlikely to make a
   noticeable difference on x86-64 due to the way the system call
   entry works.)

 - On x86-64 with vsyscall=emulate, skipped vsyscalls were buggy.

This updates the documentation accordingly.

This causes 9/10 of the tests in 'vsyscall' at
https://github.com/amluto/seccomp to pass.  Without this patch, only 3/10
pass.  (The one that fails is a different issue, and I don't see any urgency
to fixing it until another seccomp arch shows up.)

This is unchanged from the version that's been floating on lkml since
August 1.  It can be found at:

https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/luto/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/seccomp-vsyscall/patch_v2
(Although git.kernel.org is currently caching a bogus version that I put there.
Oops.)

Once this goes in and survives for a while, I'll forward it to -stable.

+
+Caveats
+-------
+
+The vDSO can cause some system calls to run entirely in userspace,
+leading to surprises when you run programs on different machines that
+fall back to real syscalls.  To minimize these surprises on x86, make
+sure you test with
+/sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource set to
+something like acpi_pm.
+
+On x86-64, vsyscall emulation is enabled by default.  (vsyscalls are
+legacy variants on vDSO calls.)  Currently, emulated vsyscalls will honor seccomp, with a few oddities:
+
+- A return value of SECCOMP_RET_TRAP will set a si_call_addr pointing to
+  the vsyscall entry for the given call and not the address after the
+  'syscall' instruction.  Any code which wants to restart the call
+  should be aware that (a) a ret instruction has been emulated and (b)
+  trying to resume the syscall will again trigger the standard vsyscall
+  emulation security checks, making resuming the syscall mostly
+  pointless.
+
+- A return value of SECCOMP_RET_TRACE will signal the tracer as usual,
+  but the syscall may not be changed to another system call using the
+  orig_rax register. It may only be changed to -1 order to skip the
+  currently emulated call. Any other change MAY terminate the process.
+  The rip value seen by the tracer will be the syscall entry address;
+  this is different from normal behavior.  The tracer MUST NOT modify
+  rip or rsp.  (Do not rely on other changes terminating the process.
+  They might work.  For example, on some kernels, choosing a syscall
+  that only exists in future kernels will be correctly emulated (by
+  returning -ENOSYS).
+
+To detect this quirky behavior, check for addr & ~0x0C00 ==
+0xFFFFFFFFFF600000.  (For SECCOMP_RET_TRACE, use rip.  For
+SECCOMP_RET_TRAP, use siginfo->si_call_addr.)  Do not check any other
+condition: future kernels may improve vsyscall emulation and current
+kernels in vsyscall=native mode will behave differently, but the
+instructions at 0xF...F600{0,4,8,C}00 will not be system calls in these
+cases.
+
+Note that modern systems are unlikely to use vsyscalls at all -- they
+are a legacy feature and they are considerably slower than standard
+syscalls.  New code will use the vDSO, and vDSO-issued system calls
+are indistinguishable from normal system calls.
