[PATCH v3 3/6] arm64: untag user addresses in access_ok and __uaccess_mask_ptr

From: Andrey Konovalov
Date: Fri May 25 2018 - 13:21:59 EST


copy_from_user (and a few other similar functions) are used to copy data
from user memory into the kernel memory or vice versa. Since a user can
provided a tagged pointer to one of the syscalls that use copy_from_user,
we need to correctly handle such pointers.

Do this by untagging user pointers in access_ok and in __uaccess_mask_ptr,
before performing access validity checks.
