commit 1f36cd05e0081f2c75769a551d584c4ffb2a5660 upstream. Fault handler used to make non-trivial calls, so it needed to set a stack frame up. Used to be save ... - grab a stack frame, old %o... become %i... .... ret - go back to address originally in %o7, currently %i7 restore - switch to previous stack frame, in delay slot Non-trivial calls had been gone since ab5e8b331244 and that code should have become retl - go back to address in %o7 clr %o0 - have return value set to 0 What it had become instead was ret - go back to address in %i7 - return address of *caller* clr %o0 - have return value set to 0 which is not good, to put it mildly - we forcibly return 0 from csum_and_copy_{from,to}_iter() (which is what the call of that thing had been inlined into) and do that without dropping the stack frame of said csum_and_copy_..._iter(). Confuses the hell out of the caller of csum_and_copy_..._iter(), obviously...

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.
