Subject: [PULL 5/5] linux-user: permit sendto() with NULL buf and 0 len
Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2025 12:53:33 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251031115334.368165-6-richard.henderson@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251031115334.368165-1-richard.henderson@linaro.org>
From: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>
If you pass sendto() a NULL buffer, this is usually an error
(causing an EFAULT return); however if you pass a 0 length then
we should not try to validate the buffer provided. Instead we
skip the copying of the user data and possible processing
through fd_trans_target_to_host_data, and call the host syscall
with NULL, 0.
(unlock_user() permits a NULL buffer pointer for "do nothing"
so we don't need to special case the unlock code.)
