From 41a0c249cb8706a2efa1ab3d59466b23a27d0c8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Colin Ian King Date: Fri, 18 Dec 2015 14:22:01 -0800 Subject: proc: fix -ESRCH error when writing to /proc/$pid/coredump_filter Writing to /proc/$pid/coredump_filter always returns -ESRCH because commit 774636e19ed51 ("proc: convert to kstrto*()/kstrto*_from_user()") removed the setting of ret after the get_proc_task call and incorrectly left it as -ESRCH. Instead, return 0 when successful. Example breakage: echo 0 > /proc/self/coredump_filter bash: echo: write error: No such process Fixes: 774636e19ed51 ("proc: convert to kstrto*()/kstrto*_from_user()") Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King Acked-by: Kees Cook Cc: [4.3+] Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- fs/proc/base.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/fs/proc/base.c b/fs/proc/base.c index bd3e9e68125b..4bd5d3118acd 100644 --- a/fs/proc/base.c +++ b/fs/proc/base.c @@ -2494,6 +2494,7 @@ static ssize_t proc_coredump_filter_write(struct file *file, mm = get_task_mm(task); if (!mm) goto out_no_mm; + ret = 0; for (i = 0, mask = 1; i < MMF_DUMP_FILTER_BITS; i++, mask <<= 1) { if (val & mask) -- cgit v1.2.3-58-ga151
