Subject: [PATCH pidfd] signal: Add missing __user annotation to copy_siginfo_from_user_any
Date: Mon,  7 Dec 2020 01:02:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201207000252.138564-1-jannh@google.com> (raw)

copy_siginfo_from_user_any() takes a userspace pointer as second
argument; annotate the parameter type accordingly.

I'm messing around with clang's version of __user annotation checking
and it spotted this issue:

kernel/signal.c:3759:44: warning: casting to dereferenceable pointer removes 'noderef' attribute [-Wnoderef]
                ret = copy_siginfo_from_user_any(&kinfo, info);
                                                         ^~~~
Untracked cast to function pointer at kernel/signal.c:4294:26


Christian, since this is pidfd code, can you take this through your tree?
Or should I send this to akpm (or someone else)?
