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

 



3.16.7-ckt26 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4cad67fca3fc952d6f2ed9e799621f07666a560f upstream.

Calling return copy_to_user(...) in an ioctl will not
do the right thing if there's a pagefault:
copy_to_user returns the number of bytes not copied
in this case.

Fix up kvm to do
	return copy_to_user(...)) ?  -EFAULT : 0;

everywhere.
