Subject: [patch V5 01/12] ARM: uaccess: Implement missing __get_user_asm_dword()
Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2025 09:43:42 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251027083745.168468637@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20251027083700.573016505@linutronix.de
When CONFIG_CPU_SPECTRE=n then get_user() is missing the 8 byte ASM variant
for no real good reason. This prevents using get_user(u64) in generic code.
Implement it as a sequence of two 4-byte reads with LE/BE awareness and
make the unsigned long (or long long) type for the intermediate variable to
read into dependend on the the target type.
The __long_type() macro and idea was lifted from PowerPC. Thanks to
Christophe for pointing it out.
