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-3.13.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 18ceb330ccece9b16dd75d8ca635ddcff31fa42b 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().
