vsyscall detection code uses direct call to the beginning of
the vsyscall page:
asm ("call %P0" :: "i" (0xffffffffff600000))
It generates "call rel32" instruction but it is not relocated if binary
is PIE, so binary segfaults into random userspace address and vsyscall
page status is detected incorrectly.
Do more direct:
asm ("call *%rax")
which doesn't do need any relocaltions.
Mark g_vsyscall as volatile for a good measure, I didn't find instruction
setting it to 0. Now the code is obviously correct:
xor eax, eax
mov rdi, rbp
mov rsi, rbp
mov DWORD PTR [rip+0x2d15], eax # g_vsyscall = 0
mov rax, 0xffffffffff600000
call rax
mov DWORD PTR [rip+0x2d02], 1 # g_vsyscall = 1
mov eax, DWORD PTR ds:0xffffffffff600000
mov DWORD PTR [rip+0x2cf1], 2 # g_vsyscall = 2
mov edi, [rip+0x2ceb] # exit(g_vsyscall)
call exit
Note: fixed proc-empty-vm test oopses 5.19.0-28-generic kernel
but this is separate story.

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.
