From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
===============
commit 6fdc6dd90272ce7e75d744f71535cfbd8d77da81 upstream.
The vsyscall32 sysctl can racy against a concurrent fork when it switches from disabled to enabled:
arch_setup_additional_pages() if (vdso32_enabled) --> No mapping sysctl.vsysscall32() --> vdso32_enabled = true create_elf_tables() ARCH_DLINFO_IA32 if (vdso32_enabled) { --> Add VDSO entry with NULL pointer
Make ARCH_DLINFO_IA32 check whether the VDSO mapping has been set up for the newly forked process or not.
