| |
To reduce the chance that random user space content leaks down the call chain in registers, also clear lower registers on syscall entry:
For 64-bit syscalls, extend the register clearing in PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS to %dx and %cx. This should not hurt at all, also on the other callers of that macro. We do not need to clear %rdi and %rsi for syscall entry, as those registers are used to pass the parameters to do_syscall_64().
For the 32-bit compat syscalls, do_int80_syscall_32() and do_fast_syscall_32() each only take one parameter. Therefore, extend the register clearing to %dx, %cx, and %si in entry_SYSCALL_compat and entry_INT80_compat.
