This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled IB/mthca: Return an error on ib_copy_to_udata() failure to the linux-3.11.y-queue branch of the 3.11.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-3.11.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.11.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 141d9504167d46524dd5f6159f4cde406de553e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yann Droneaud <ydroneaud@opteya.com> Date: Mon, 10 Mar 2014 23:06:26 +0100 Subject: IB/mthca: Return an error on ib_copy_to_udata() failure commit 08e74c4b00c30c232d535ff368554959403d0432 upstream. In case of error when writing to userspace, the function mthca_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().
