Subject: [PATCH 34/36] usercopy: Allow strict enforcement of whitelists
Date: Tue,  9 Jan 2018 12:56:03 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1515531365-37423-35-git-send-email-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1515531365-37423-1-git-send-email-keescook@chromium.org>

This introduces CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY_FALLBACK to control the
behavior of hardened usercopy whitelist violations. By default, whitelist
violations will continue to WARN() so that any bad or missing usercopy
whitelists can be discovered without being too disruptive.

If this config is disabled at build time or a system is booted with
"slab_common.usercopy_fallback=0", usercopy whitelists will BUG() instead
of WARN(). This is useful for admins that want to use usercopy whitelists
immediately.
