I'm not 100% sure, but the pointers that I added the annotation to end up being used as user memory. (eg. passed to copy_to_user, etc.) Sometimes these pointers are passed to functions that already have __user annotation in their signatures (eg. ll_getname, copy_and_ioctl, ll_fid2path, etc.). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
