[PATCH 6.2 154/187] powerpc: Dont try to copy PPR for task with NULL pt_regs

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

 



From: Jens Axboe <axboe@xxxxxxxxx>

commit fd7276189450110ed835eb0a334e62d2f1c4e3be upstream.

powerpc sets up PF_KTHREAD and PF_IO_WORKER with a NULL pt_regs, which
from my (arguably very short) checking is not commonly done for other
archs. This is fine, except when PF_IO_WORKER's have been created and
the task does something that causes a coredump to be generated. Then we
get this crash:

Because ppr_get() is trying to copy from a PF_IO_WORKER with a NULL
pt_regs.

Check for a valid pt_regs in both ppc_get/ppr_set, and return an error
if not set. The actual error value doesn't seem to be important here, so
just pick -EINVAL.
