[PATCH 3/6] x86/sev-es: Use __put_user()/__get_user

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

 



From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@xxxxxxx>

The put_user() and get_user() functions do checks on the address which is
passed to them. They check whether the address is actually a user-space
address and whether its fine to access it. They also call might_fault()
to indicate that they could fault and possibly sleep.

All of these checks are neither wanted nor required in the #VC exception
handler, which can be invoked from almost any context and also for MMIO
instructions from kernel space on kernel memory. All the #VC handler
wants to know is whether a fault happened when the access was tried.

This is provided by __put_user()/__get_user(), which just do the access
no matter what.

Fixes: f980f9c31a92 ("x86/sev-es: Compile early handler code into kernel image")
