[PATCH] binfmt_script argv[0] fix
From: Arun Sharma <arun.sharma@intel.com> A script such as #!/bin/foo.bar ... where /bin/foo.bar is handled by binfmt_misc, is not handled correctly i.e. the interpreter of foo.bar doesn't receive the correct arguments. The binfmt_misc handler requires that bprm->filename is appropriately filled so that the argv[1] could be correctly passed to the interpreter. However, binfmt_script, as it exists today doesn't populate bprm->filename correctly. Another motivation for this patch is the output of ps. Emulators which use binfmt_misc may want to keep the output of ps consistent with native execution. This requires preserving bprm->filename. The attached patch guarantees this even if we have to go through several binfmt handlers (think of finite loops involving binfmt_script and binfmt_misc).
