commit 8926d88ced46700bf6117ceaf391480b943ea9f4 upstream. The get_user()/put_user() functions are meant to check for access_ok(), while the __get_user()/__put_user() functions don't. This broke in 4.19 for nds32, when it gained an extraneous check in __get_user(), but lost the check it needs in __put_user(). Fixes: 487913ab18c2 ("nds32: Extract the checking and getting pointer to a macro") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org @ v4.19+ Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
