Date: Tue, 5 Apr 2011 16:24:31 +1000 (EST) From: Michael Ellerman <michael@...erman.id.au> To: <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Cc: <linux-mm@...ck.org>, <hughd@...gle.com>, <walken@...gle.com>, <aarcange@...hat.com>, <riel@...hat.com>, Andrew Morton <akpm@...l.org>, <linuxppc-dev@...abs.org>, Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@...nel.crashing.org> Subject: [PATCH] mm: Check we have the right vma in access_process_vm() In access_process_vm() we need to check that we have found the right vma, not the following vma, before we try to access it. Otherwise we might call the vma's access routine with an address which does not fall inside the vma.
