Cover letter [RFC v1 0/6] pseries/papr-hvpipe: Fix and simplify papr-hvpipe
Haren reported a UAF / null ptr deref issue here [1]. While reviewing that and going over papr-hvpipe code, I found couple of more issues around the usage of copy_to_user() and few refactoring which simplifies the code.
This patch series is an attempt to that. Note that this is only compile tested on pseries for now.
Haren, I will kindly need your help in verifying this please. Let me know if we have a selftests or any other test framework for this, which I can utilize too.
