Subject: [07/11] compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()
2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@...ux.intel.com>
commit c41d68a513c71e35a14f66d71782d27a79a81ea6 upstream.
compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
access_ok() to verify the returned area. A missing call could
introduce problems on some architectures.
This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
implementation of the new global function.
This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
fail or access userspace on all architectures. This should be
followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
can also be removed.
