The patch titled Subject: mm/usercopy: use memory range to be accessed for wraparound check has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-usercopy-use-memory-range-to-be-accessed-for-wraparound-check.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------ From: "Isaac J. Manjarres" isaacm@codeaurora.org Subject: mm/usercopy: use memory range to be accessed for wraparound check
Currently, when checking to see if accessing n bytes starting at address "ptr" will cause a wraparound in the memory addresses, the check in check_bogus_address() adds an extra byte, which is incorrect, as the range of addresses that will be accessed is [ptr, ptr + (n - 1)].
This can lead to incorrectly detecting a wraparound in the memory address, when trying to read 4 KB from memory that is mapped to the the last possible page in the virtual address space, when in fact, accessing that range of memory would not cause a wraparound to occur.
Use the memory range that will actually be accessed when considering if accessing a certain amount of bytes will cause the memory address to wrap around.
