Subject: [PATCH 3/3] arm64: ptrace: Fix incorrect get_user() use in compat_vfp_set()
Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2017 15:25:49 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1498746379-27340-4-git-send-email-Dave.Martin@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1498746379-27340-1-git-send-email-Dave.Martin@arm.com>
Now that compat_vfp_get() uses the regset API to copy the FPSCR
value out to userspace, compat_vfp_set() looks inconsistent. In
particular, compat_vfp_set() will fail if called with kbuf != NULL
&& ubuf == NULL (which is valid usage according to the regset API).
This patch fixes compat_vfp_set() to use user_regset_copyin(),
similarly to compat_vfp_get().
This also squashes a sparse warning triggered by the cast that
drops __user when calling get_user().
