Subject: [PATCH v2] x86: Allow user accesses to the base of the guard page
Date: Sun, 24 Nov 2024 15:39:00 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0edca3e5d2194cdf9812a8ccb42216e9@AcuMS.aculab.com> (raw)
__access_ok() calls valid_user_address() with the address after
the last byte of the user buffer.
It is valid for a buffer to end with the last valid user address
so valid_user_address() must allow accesses to the base of the
guard page.
Fixes: 86e6b1547b3d0 ("x86: fix user address masking non-canonical speculation issue")
