[PATCH 4.15 055/202] [Variant 1/Spectre-v1] arm64: uaccess: Dont bother eliding access_ok checks in __{get, put}_user

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Feb 15 2018 - 11:46:32 EST


4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx>


Commit 84624087dd7e upstream.

access_ok isn't an expensive operation once the addr_limit for the current
thread has been loaded into the cache. Given that the initial access_ok
check preceding a sequence of __{get,put}_user operations will take
the brunt of the miss, we can make the __* variants identical to the
full-fat versions, which brings with it the benefits of address masking.

The likely cost in these sequences will be from toggling PAN/UAO, which
we can address later by implementing the *_unsafe versions.
