[PATCH v14 07/17] mm, arm64: untag user pointers in mm/gup.c

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch is a part of a series that extends arm64 kernel ABI to allow to
pass tagged user pointers (with the top byte set to something else other
than 0x00) as syscall arguments.

mm/gup.c provides a kernel interface that accepts user addresses and
manipulates user pages directly (for example get_user_pages, that is used
by the futex syscall). Since a user can provided tagged addresses, we need
to handle this case.

Add untagging to gup.c functions that use user addresses for vma lookups.
