Subject: [PATCH 3/4] x86: Implement strict user copy checks for x86_64
Date: Tue, 31 May 2011 11:14:32 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1306865673-20560-4-git-send-email-sboyd@codeaurora.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1306865673-20560-1-git-send-email-sboyd@codeaurora.org>

Strict user copy checks are only really supported on x86_32 even
though the config option is selectable on x86_64. Add the
necessary support to the 64 bit code to trigger copy_from_user()
warnings at compile time.
