Which kernels? These two patches were pulled into 3.4-rc6 so they're already in the HEAD kernel. - -Jeff

Please apply to our Fedora kernels.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ARM: audit: fix treatment of saved ip register during syscall tracing Date: Fri, 4 May 2012 17:52:02 +0100 From: Will Deacon To: patches@arm.linux.org.uk CC: stable@vger.kernel.org

The ARM audit code incorrectly uses the saved application ip register value to infer syscall entry or exit. Additionally, the saved value will be clobbered if the current task is not being traced, which can lead to libc corruption if ip is live (apparently glibc uses it for the TLS pointer).

This patch fixes the syscall tracing code so that the why parameter is used to infer the syscall direction and the saved ip is only updated if we know that we will be signalling a ptrace trap.
