+Bugzilla: 1117942
+Upstream-status: Sent for 3.16 and seen by peterz
+
+The scheduler uses policy=-1 to preserve the current policy state to
+implement sched_setparam(). But, as (int) -1 is equals to 0xffffffff,
+it's matching the if (policy & SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK) on
+_sched_setscheduler(). This match changes the policy value to an
+invalid value, breaking the sched_setparam() syscall.
+
+This patch checks policy=-1 before check the SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag.
+
+The following program shows the bug:
+
+int main(void)
+{
+	struct sched_param param = {
+		.sched_priority = 5,
+	};
+
+	sched_setscheduler(0, SCHED_FIFO, &param);
+	param.sched_priority = 1;
+	sched_setparam(0, &param);
+	param.sched_priority = 0;
+	sched_getparam(0, &param);
+	if (param.sched_priority != 1)
+		printf("failed priority setting (found %d instead of 1)\n",
+			param.sched_priority);
+	else
+		printf("priority setting fine\n");
+}
