Great. > For EX_TYPE_UACCESS_ERR_ZERO, today we use it for kernel accesses in a > couple of cases, such as > get_user/futex/__user_cache_maint()/__user_swpX_asm(), Those are all user accesses. However, __get_kernel_nofault() and __put_kernel_nofault() use EX_TYPE_UACCESS_ERR_ZERO by way of __{get,put}_mem_asm(), so we'd need to refactor that code to split the user/kernel cases higher up the callchain. > your suggestion is: > get_user continues to use EX_TYPE_UACCESS_ERR_ZERO and the other cases use > new type EX_TYPE_FIXUP_ERR_ZERO? Yes, that's the rough shape. We could make the latter EX_TYPE_KACCESS_ERR_ZERO to be clearly analogous to EX_TYPE_UACCESS_ERR_ZERO, and with that I susepct we could remove EX_TYPE_FIXUP. Thanks, Mark.
