Subject: [PATCH 10/15] uprobes: no need to re-check vma_address() in write_opcode()
Date: Fri, 15 Jun 2012 17:43:47 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120615154347.GA9604@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120615154241.GA9524@redhat.com>
write_opcode() is called by register_for_each_vma() and uprobe_mmap()
paths. In both cases the caller has already verified this vaddr under
mmap_sem, no need to re-check.
Note also that this check is wrong anyway, we should not truncate
loff_t returned by vma_address() if we do not trust this mapping.
