While zeroing the upper 32 bits of an 8-byte getuser on 32-bit x86 was fixed by commit8c860ed825("x86/uaccess: Fix missed zeroing of ia32 u64 get_user() range checking") it was broken again in commit8a2462df15("x86/uaccess: Improve the 8-byte getuser() case"). This is because the register which holds the upper 32 bits (%ecx) is being cleared _after_ the check_range, so if the range check fails, %ecx is never cleared. This can be reproduced with: ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --arch i386 usercopy Instead, clear %ecx _before_ check_range in the 8-byte case. This reintroduces a bit of the ugliness we were trying to avoid by adding another #ifndef CONFIG_X86_64, but at least keeps check_range from needing a separate bad_get_user_8 jump.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
