Subject: [PATCH] mm: actually remap enough memory
Date: Sun, 8 Feb 2015 04:55:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1423364112-15487-1-git-send-email-notasas@gmail.com> (raw)
For whatever reason, generic_access_phys() only remaps one page, but
actually allows to access arbitrary size. It's quite easy to trigger
large reads, like printing out large structure with gdb, which leads to
a crash. Fix it by remapping correct size.
Fixes: 28b2ee20c7cb ("access_process_vm device memory infrastructure")
