[PATCH pidfd] signal: Add missing __user annotation to copy_siginfo_from_user_any

2020-12-06 Thread Jann Horn
copy_siginfo_from_user_any() takes a userspace pointer as second
argument; annotate the parameter type accordingly.

I'm messing around with clang's version of __user annotation checking
and it spotted this issue:

kernel/signal.c:3759:44: warning: casting to dereferenceable pointer removes 
'noderef' attribute [-Wnoderef]
ret = copy_siginfo_from_user_any(, info);
 ^~~~
Untracked cast to function pointer at kernel/signal.c:4294:26


Christian, since this is pidfd code, can you take this through your tree?
Or should I send this to akpm (or someone else)?
