[PATCH v4 4/7] mm, arm64: untag user addresses in mm/gup.c

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

 



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). Here we also need to handle the case of tagged user
pointers.

Add untagging to gup.c functions that use user pointers for vma lookup.
