Subject: [PATCH] futex: Take mmap_sem for get_user_pages in fault_in_user_writeable
Date: Tue, 8 Dec 2009 13:19:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091208121942.GA21298@basil.fritz.box> (raw)
futex: Take mmap_sem for get_user_pages in fault_in_user_writeable
gup() requires mmap_sem, so take it before running it. The
recent fault_in_user_writeable() didn't do that.
I didn't find a good futex test case, so untested.
Likely a stable candidate.
