The return code -ENOEXEC serves to tell search_binary_handler that it
should continue searching for the binfmt to handle a given file. This
makes return -ENOEXEC with a bprm->buf that is needed to continue the
search problematic.
The current binfmt_script manages to escape problems as it closes and
clears bprm->file before return -ENOEXEC with bprm->buf modified.
This prevents search_binary_handler from looping as it explicitly
handles a NULL bprm->file.
I plan on moving all of the bprm->file managment into fs/exec.c and out
of the binary handlers so this will become a problem.
Move closing bprm->file and the test for BINPRM_PATH_INACCESSIBLE
down below the last return of -ENOEXEC.
Introduce i_sep and i_end to track the end of the first argument and
the end of the parameters respectively. Using those, constification
of all char * pointers, and the helpers next_terminator and
next_non_spacetab guarantee the parameter parsing will not modify
bprm->buf.
Only modify bprm->buf to terminate the strings i_arg and i_name with
'\0' for passing to copy_strings_kernel.
When replacing loops with next_non_spacetab and next_terminator care
has been take that the logic of the parsing code (short of replacing
characters by '\0') remains the same.
