26 #include <linux/sched.h>
27 #include <linux/mm.h>
28 #include <asm/segment.h>
29 #include <asm/sections.h>
32 * access_ok: - Checks if a user space pointer is valid
33 * @type: Type of access: %VERIFY_READ or %VERIFY_WRITE. Note that
34 * %VERIFY_WRITE is a superset of %VERIFY_READ - if it is safe
35 * to write to a block, it is always safe to read from it.
36 * @addr: User space pointer to start of block to check
37 * @size: Size of block to check
39 * Context: User context only. This function may sleep.
41 * Checks if a pointer to a block of memory in user space is valid.
43 * Returns true (nonzero) if the memory block *may* be valid, false (zero)
44 * if it is definitely invalid.
46 * User address space in Hexagon, like x86, goes to 0xbfffffff, so the
47 * simple MSB-based tests used by MIPS won't work. Some further
48 * optimization is probably possible here, but for now, keep it
49 * reasonably simple and not *too* slow. After all, we've got the
50 * MMU for backup.

61 * When a kernel-mode page fault is taken, the faulting instruction
62 * address is checked against a table of exception_table_entries.
63 * Each entry is a tuple of the address of an instruction that may
64 * be authorized to fault, and the address at which execution should
65 * be resumed instead of the faulting instruction, so as to effect
66 * a workaround.
