[PATCH 3/4] mce/copyin: fix to not SIGBUS when copying from user hits poison

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

 



Andy Lutomirski pointed out that sending SIGBUS to tasks that
hit poison in the kernel copying syscall parameters from user
address space is not the right semantic.

So stop doing that. Add a new kill_me_never() call back that
simply unmaps and offlines the poison page.

current-mce_vaddr is no longer used, so drop this field

---

Needs to be combined with other patches for bisectability
