[PATCH 0/4] Move copy_from_user out of preempt disabled context
Posted by Bibo Mao 1 month ago
Function copy_from_user() and copy_to_user() may sleep because of page
fault, and they cannot be called with preempt disabled context, such as
spin_lock hold context.

Here this patch set move copy_from_user out of preempt disabled context,
local variable is added in spinlock context at first and then put to user
memory from local variable without spinlock.
