Subject: [PATCH] x86/dumpstack: fix address space casting in show_opcodes()
Date: Thu, 30 Aug 2018 21:47:36 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180830194736.210039-1-jannh@google.com> (raw)
I sloppily passed a kernel-typed pointer to __range_not_ok(), and sparse
doesn't like that.
Make `prologue` a __user pointer (to protect against accidental
dereferences) and force-cast it to a kernel pointer when calling
probe_kernel_read(), which will then immediately force-cast it back to a
user pointer.
Fixes: a644cf538b11 ("x86/dumpstack: Don't dump kernel memory based on usermode RIP")
