[patch added to 3.12-stable] metag/usercopy: Add early abort to copy_to_user

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

 



From: James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit fb8ea062a8f2e85256e13f55696c5c5f0dfdcc8b upstream.

When copying to userland on Meta, if any faults are encountered
immediately abort the copy instead of continuing on and repeatedly
faulting, and worse potentially copying further bytes successfully to
subsequent valid pages.

Fixes: 373cd784d0fc ("metag: Memory handling")
