TIOCGWINSZmodifies its argument, so it needs to mutably borrow it. Unfortunately,ioctl()'s signature is not able to enforce this, and the write happens in the kernel, so I don't think anything like miri, valgrind, UBSan, etc. would have been able to catch this.The UB passing an immutable reference caused resulted, for me, in
get_win_size()returning(0, 0)since LLVM commitllvm/llvm-project@9a09c73 ("[BasicAA] Make isNotCapturedBeforeOrAt() check for calls more precise (#69931)").
I've had a look through the other
ioctl()calls in Cloud Hypervisor, and I don't think any others have the same problem.
