Subject: [PATCH] staging: goldfish: fix direct copy_to_user() from __iomem
Date: Sun, 22 Jun 2014 03:29:38 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1403422178-20833-1-git-send-email-shack@linux.com> (raw)

This patch allocates a few pages and performs an ioread8_rep() from the bus
address, which are then copied to userspace.  This fixes the sparse warning:

drivers/staging/goldfish/goldfish_audio.c:136:43: warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different address spaces)
drivers/staging/goldfish/goldfish_audio.c:136:43:    expected void const *from
drivers/staging/goldfish/goldfish_audio.c:136:43:    got char [noderef] <asn:2>*read_buffer

which was a result of performing a copy_to_user() directly from the bus address
to the userspace, which can be unsafe across some architectures.
