The SUM bit is enabled at the beginning of the copy_{to,from}_user and
{get,put}_user routines, and cleared before they return. But these user
copy helper can be interrupted by exceptions, in which case the SUM bit
will remain set, which leads to elevated privileges for the code running
in exception context, as that can now access userspace address space
unconditionally. This frequently happens when the user copy routines
access freshly allocated user memory that hasn't been faulted in, and a
pagefault needs to be taken before the user copy routines can continue.
Fix this by unconditionally clearing SUM when the exception handler is
called - the restore code will automatically restore it based on the
saved value.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
