From fd7276189450110ed835eb0a334e62d2f1c4e3be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Sun, 26 Mar 2023 16:15:57 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Don't try to copy PPR for task with NULL pt_regs powerpc sets up PF_KTHREAD and PF_IO_WORKER with a NULL pt_regs, which from my (arguably very short) checking is not commonly done for other archs. This is fine, except when PF_IO_WORKER's have been created and the task does something that causes a coredump to be generated. Then we get this crash: Kernel attempted to read user page (160) - exploit attempt?

Check for a valid pt_regs in both ppc_get/ppr_set, and return an error if not set. The actual error value doesn't seem to be important here, so just pick -EINVAL.
