This is sometimes implemented using probe_kernel_address() with additional access_ok() verification, sometimes with get_user() enclosed in a pagefault_disable()/enable() pair, etc. : show_user_instructions() bad_stack_expansion() p9_hmi_special_emu() fsl_pci_mcheck_exception() read_user_stack_64() read_user_stack_32() on PPC64 read_user_stack_32() on PPC32 power_pmu_bhrb_to() In the same spirit as probe_kernel_read(), this patch adds probe_user_read(). probe_user_read() does the same as probe_kernel_read() but first checks that it is really a user address. Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy --- v2: Added "Returns:" comment and removed probe_user_address() Changes since RFC: Made a static inline function instead of weak function as recommended by Kees. include/linux/uaccess.h | 34 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 34 insertions(+) diff --git a/include/linux/uaccess.h b/include/linux/uaccess.h index 37b226e8df13..07f4f0ed69bc 100644 --- a/include/linux/uaccess.h +++ b/include/linux/uaccess.h @@ -263,6 +263,40 @@ extern long strncpy_from_unsafe(char *dst, const void *unsafe_addr, long count); #define probe_kernel_address(addr, retval) \ probe_kernel_read(&retval, addr, sizeof(retval)) +/** + * probe_user_read(): safely attempt to read from a user location + * @dst: pointer to the buffer that shall take the data + * @src: address to read from + * @size: size of the data chunk + * + * Returns: 0 on success, -EFAULT on error. + * + * Safely read from address @src to the buffer at @dst.
