Subject: [PATCH] pasta, util: Align stack area for clones to maximum natural alignment
Date: Fri, 12 Apr 2024 00:18:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240411221800.548140-1-sbrivio@redhat.com> (raw)
Given that we use this stack pointer as a location to store arbitrary
data types from the cloned process, we need to guarantee that its
alignment matches any of those possible data types.
runsisi reports that pasta gets a SIGBUS in pasta_open_ns() on
aarch64, where the alignment requirement for stack pointers is a
16 bytes (same as the size of a long double), and similar requirements
actually apply to most architectures we run on.
