Hi, "copy_mount_options" function came to my eyes. It splits copy into 2 pieces - over page boundaries. I wonder what is the real reason for doing this? Original comment was that we need exact bytes and some user memcpy functions do not return correct number on page fault.
But how would all other cases work? https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/fs/namespace.c#L3075 if (size != PAGE_SIZE) { if (copy_from_user(copy + size, data + size, PAGE_SIZE - size)) memset(copy + size, 0, PAGE_SIZE - size); } This looks like some options may be just discarded? What if it is an important security option? Why it does not return EFAULT, but just memset? -- Thanks, Dmitry
