[PATCH 4.19 007/267] make user_access_begin() do access_ok()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Jun 19 2020 - 12:30:07 EST


From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 594cc251fdd0d231d342d88b2fdff4bc42fb0690 upstream.

Originally, the rule used to be that you'd have to do access_ok()
separately, and then user_access_begin() before actually doing the
direct (optimized) user access.

But experience has shown that people then decide not to do access_ok()
at all, and instead rely on it being implied by other operations or
similar. Which makes it very hard to verify that the access has
actually been range-checked.

If you use the unsafe direct user accesses, hardware features (either
SMAP - Supervisor Mode Access Protection - on x86, or PAN - Privileged
Access Never - on ARM) do force you to use user_access_begin(). But
nothing really forces the range check.

By putting the range check into user_access_begin(), we actually force
people to do the right thing (tm), and the range check vill be visible
near the actual accesses. We have way too long a history of people
trying to avoid them.
