From: Pavel Emelyanov Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2008 21:09:10 +0000 (-0700) Subject: binfmt_misc: fix false -ENOEXEC when coupled with other binary handlers X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27-rc4~13 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ff9bc512f198eb47204f55b24c6fe3d36ed89592;p=pandora-kernel.git binfmt_misc: fix false -ENOEXEC when coupled with other binary handlers In case the binfmt_misc binary handler is registered *before* the e.g. script one (when for example being compiled as a module) the following situation may occur: 1. user launches a script, whose interpreter is a misc binary; 2. the load_misc_binary sets the misc_bang and returns -ENOEVEC, since the binary is a script; 3. the load_script_binary loads one and calls for search_binary_hander to run the interpreter; 4. the load_misc_binary is called again, but refuses to load the binary due to misc_bang bit set. The fix is to move the misc_bang setting lower - prior to the actual call to the search_binary_handler.
