From 0aea86a2176c22647a5b683768f858d880d5e05b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Date: Mon, 5 Mar 2012 11:49:32 +0000 Subject: arm64: User access library functions This patch add support for various user access functions. These functions use the standard LDR/STR instructions and not the LDRT/STRT variants in order to allow kernel addresses (after set_fs(KERNEL_DS)).
