[ Upstream commit d6c5f06e46a836e6a70c7cfd95bb38a67d9252ec ] Currently, we store syscall nr in pt_regs::regs[11] and syscall execve() accidentally overrides it during its execution: sys_execve() -> do_execve() -> do_execveat_common() -> bprm_execve() -> exec_binprm() -> search_binary_handler() -> load_elf_binary() -> ELF_PLAT_INIT() ELF_PLAT_INIT() reset regs[11] to 0, so in syscall_exit_to_user_mode() we later get a wrong syscall nr. This breaks tools like execsnoop since it relies on execve() tracepoints. Skip pt_regs::regs[11] reset in ELF_PLAT_INIT() to fix the issue.

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 Restructured Text 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.
