[Patch] Fix raw device ioctl pass-through Raw character devices are supposed to pass ioctls through to the block devices they are bound to. Unfortunately, they are using the wrong function for this: ioctl_by_bdev(), instead of blkdev_ioctl(). ioctl_by_bdev() performs a set_fs(KERNEL_DS) before calling the ioctl, redirecting the user-space buffer access to the kernel address space. This is, needless to say, a bad thing. This was noticed first on s390, where raw IO was non-functioning. The s390 driver config does not actually allow raw IO to be enabled, which was the first part of the problem. Secondly, the s390 kernel address space is distinct from user, causing legal raw ioctls to fail. I've reproduced this on a kernel built with 4G:4G split on x86, which fails in the same way (-EFAULT if the address does not exist kernel-side; returns success without actually populating the user buffer if it does.) The patch below fixes both the config and address-space problems. It's based closely on a patch by Jan Glauber <jang@de.ibm.com>, which has been tested on s390 at IBM. I've tested it on x86 4G:4G (split address space) and x86_64 (common address space). Kernel-address-space access has been assigned CAN-2005-1264.
