[PATCH v5 06/10] arm64: untag user address in __do_user_fault

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

 



In __do_user_fault the fault address is being compared to TASK_SIZE to
find out whether the address lies in the kernel or in user space. Since
the fault address is coming from a user it can be tagged.

Untag the pointer before comparing.
