Subject: [PATCH v6 07/13] x86, __get_user: use __uaccess_begin_nospec
Quoting Linus:
I do think that it would be a good idea to very expressly document
the fact that it's not that the user access itself is unsafe. I do
agree that things like "get_user()" want to be protected, but not
because of any direct bugs or problems with get_user() and friends,
but simply because get_user() is an excellent source of a pointer
that is obviously controlled from a potentially attacking user
space. So it's a prime candidate for then finding _subsequent_
accesses that can then be used to perturb the cache.
__uaccess_begin_nospec() covers __get_user() and copy_from_iter() where
the limit check is far away from the user pointer de-reference. In those
cases a barrier_nospec() prevents speculation with a potential pointer to
privileged memory.
