The parisc kernel wrongly allows reading from read-protected userspace memory without faulting, e.g. when userspace uses mprotect() to read-protect a memory area and then uses a pointer to this memory in a write(2, addr, 1) syscall. To fix this issue, Dave Anglin developed a set of patches which use the proberi assembler instruction to additionally check read access permissions at runtime. Randy Dunlap contributed two patches to fix a minor typo and to explain why a 32-bit compiler is needed although a 64-bit kernel is built. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYKAB0WIQS86RI+GtKfB8BJu973ErUQojoPXwUCaIz+oAAKCRD3ErUQojoP Xy2WAQDMnAWKA62nvsWnwYYtHK7t8tA03XPJ4HlcEOW+EKdW1AEA3yKFBnDQMEm1 zXrjzavY044/00u1Wba3glExQ3Vo0go= =0F3R -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'parisc-for-6.17-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux Pull parisc updates from Helge Deller: - The parisc kernel wrongly allows reading from read-protected userspace memory without faulting, e.g. when userspace uses mprotect() to read-protect a memory area and then uses a pointer to this memory in a write(2, addr, 1) syscall.
