Subject: [PATCH 5/5] signal: Use scoped_user_access() instead of __put/get_user()
Date: Sat, 20 Dec 2025 21:56:08 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251220215608.434614-6-david.laight.linux@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251220215608.434614-1-david.laight.linux@gmail.com>
From: David Laight <david.laight.linux@gmail.com>
Mechanically change the access_ok() and __get/put_user() to use
scoped_user_read/write_access() and unsafe_get/put_user().
This generates better code with fewer STAC/CLAC pairs.
It also ensures that access_ok() is called near the user accesses.
I failed to find the one for __save_altstack().
Looking at the change, perhaps there should be aliases:
#define scoped_put_user unsafe_put_user
#define scoped_get_user unsafe_get_user
