From 4393c4f6788cee65095dd838cfeca6edefbfeb52 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Date: Wed, 1 Nov 2006 15:11:39 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] [POWERPC] Make alignment exception always check exception table The alignment exception used to only check the exception table for -EFAULT, not for other errors. That opens an oops window if we can coerce the kernel into getting an alignment exception for other reasons in what would normally be a user-protected accessor, which can be done via some of the futex ops. This fixes it by always checking the exception tables.
