Commit:
aa1f1a639621 ("lib/syscall: Pin the task stack in collect_syscall()")
... added logic to handle a process stack not existing, but left sp and pc
uninitialized, which can be later reported via /proc/$pid/syscall for zombie
processes, potentially exposing kernel memory to userspace.
Zombie /proc/$pid/syscall before:
-1 0xffffffff9a060100 0xffff92f42d6ad900
Zombie /proc/$pid/syscall after:
-1 0x0 0x0

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst 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.
