Subject: [PATCH] mm: Fix access_remote_vm() regression on tagged addresses
Date: Wed, 9 Aug 2023 17:46:00 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230809144600.13721-1-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com> (raw)
GDB uses /proc/PID/mem to access memory of the target process. GDB
doesn't untag addresses manually, but relies on kernel to do the right
thing.
mem_rw() of procfs uses access_remote_vm() to get data from the target
process. It worked fine until recent changes in __access_remote_vm()
that now checks if there's VMA at target address using raw address.
Untag the address before looking up the VMA.
