Refactor the functions to validate and fixup struct binder_buffer pointer objects to avoid using vm_area pointers. Instead copy to/from kernel space using binder_alloc_copy_to_buffer() and binder_alloc_copy_from_buffer(). The following functions were refactored: refactor binder_validate_ptr() binder_validate_fixup() binder_fixup_parent() Signed-off-by: Todd Kjos <tkjos@google.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
