Subject: [PATCH 0/4] Move copy_from_user out of preempt disabled context
Date: Tue,  2 Sep 2025 17:49:41 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250902094945.2957566-1-maobibo@loongson.cn> (raw)

Function copy_from_user() and copy_to_user() may sleep because of page
fault, and they cannot be called with preempt disabled context, such as
spin_lock hold context.

Here this patch set move copy_from_user out of preempt disabled context,
local variable is added in spinlock context at first and then put to user
memory from local variable without spinlock.
