Subject: [PATCH v6 1/7] exec: Change uselib(2) IS_SREG() failure to EACCES
From: Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org>
Change uselib(2)' S_ISREG() error return to EACCES instead of EINVAL so
the behavior matches execve(2), and the seemingly documented value.
The "not a regular file" failure mode of execve(2) is explicitly
documented[1], but it is not mentioned in uselib(2)[2] which does,
however, say that open(2) and mmap(2) errors may apply. The documentation
for open(2) does not include a "not a regular file" error[3], but mmap(2)
does[4], and it is EACCES.

[4] http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/mmap.2.html#ERRORS
