This new test checks that all x86 registers are preserved across 32-bit syscalls. It tests syscalls through VDSO (if available) and through INT 0x80, normally and under ptrace. If kernel is a 64-bit one, high registers (r8..r15) are poisoned before the syscall is called and are checked afterwards. They must be either preserved, or cleared to zero (but r11 is special); r12..15 must be preserved for INT 0x80. EFLAGS is checked for changes too, but change there is not considered to be a bug (paravirt kernels do not preserve arithmetic flags). Run-tested on 64-bit kernel: $ ./test_syscall_vdso_32 [RUN] Executing 6-argument 32-bit syscall via VDSO [OK] Arguments are preserved across syscall [NOTE] R11 has changed:0000000000200ed7 - assuming clobbered by SYSRET insn [OK] R8..R15 did not leak kernel data [RUN] Executing 6-argument 32-bit syscall via INT 80 [OK] Arguments are preserved across syscall [OK] R8..R15 did not leak kernel data [RUN...
