Hi Helge I noted that you created this function in commit db080f9c530f78dad661257885a1893506077068 long probe_kernel_read(void *dst, const void *src, size_t size) { unsigned long addr = (unsigned long)src; if (size < 0 || addr < PAGE_SIZE) return -EFAULT; /* check for I/O space F_EXTEND(0xfff00000) access as well? */ return __probe_kernel_read(dst, src, size); } size_t is unsigned, so comparison size < 0 doesn't make sense. What exactly did you mean by this test?
