In commit 30d6e0a419 ("futex: Remove duplicated code and fix undefined
behaviour"), I let FUTEX_WAKE_OP to fail on invalid op. Namely when op
should be considered as shift and the shift is out of range (< 0 or > 31).
But strace's test suite does this madness:
futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xa0caffee);
futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xbadfaced);
futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xffffffff);
When I pick the first 0xa0caffee, it decodes as:
0x80000000 & 0xa0caffee: oparg is shift
0x70000000 & 0xa0caffee: op is FUTEX_OP_OR
0x0f000000 & 0xa0caffee: cmp is FUTEX_OP_CMP_EQ
0x00fff000 & 0xa0caffee: oparg is sign-extended 0xcaf = -849
0x00000fff & 0xa0caffee: cmparg is sign-extended 0xfee = -18
That means the op tries to do this:
(futex |= (1 << (-849))) == -18
which is completely bogus. The new check of op in the code is:
if (encoded_op & (FUTEX_OP_OPARG_SHIFT << 28)) {
if (oparg < 0 || oparg > 31)
return -EINVAL;
oparg = 1 << oparg;
}
which results obviously in the "Invalid argument" errno:
FAIL: futex
===========
futex(0x7fabd78bcffc, 0x5, 0xfacefeed, 0xb, 0x7fabd78bcffc, 0xa0caffee) = -1: Invalid argument
futex.test: failed test: ../futex failed with code 1
So let us soften the failure to print only a (ratelimited) message, crop
the value and continue as if it were right. When userspace keeps up, we
can switch this to return -EINVAL again.
[v2] Do not return 0 immediatelly, proceed with the cropped value.

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
