I need to triple-check this logic, as there have been some overlapping (or out-of-order) LOAD bugs in the past too, and I want to make sure we don't accidentally zero things that already got loaded, etc. David, has there been any work on adding a way to instantiate userspace VMAs in a KUnit test? I tried to write this myself, but I couldn't figure out how to make the userspace memory mappings appear. Here's my fumbling attempt: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux.git/log/?h=devel/kunit/usercopy I really wish KUnit had userspace mapping support -- I have a bunch of unit tests that need to get built up around checking for regressions here, etc. Anyway, I'll test this patch and get it applied and likely backported to earlier kernels in the next few days. -Kees -- Kees Cook
