This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled IB/ehca: Returns an error on ib_copy_to_udata() failure to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.13.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11.1. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.13.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 40629dc92e703d45da5e8b2d8effea06d908d64d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yann Droneaud <ydroneaud@opteya.com> Date: Mon, 10 Mar 2014 23:06:25 +0100 Subject: IB/ehca: Returns an error on ib_copy_to_udata() failure commit 5bdb0f02add5994b0bc17494f4726925ca5d6ba1 upstream. In case of error when writing to userspace, function ehca_create_cq() does not set an error code before following its error path. This patch sets the error code to -EFAULT when ib_copy_to_udata() fails. This was caught when using spatch (aka. coccinelle) to rewrite call to ib_copy_{from,to}_udata().
