From 0b92ed09cb9ffada29ca05510ef28252b6059d6d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Mon, 30 Jan 2023 23:46:10 -0500 Subject: hexagon: fix livelock in uaccess hexagon equivalent of 26178ec11ef3 "x86: mm: consolidate VM_FAULT_RETRY handling" If e.g. get_user() triggers a page fault and a fatal signal is caught, we might end up with handle_mm_fault() returning VM_FAULT_RETRY and not doing anything to page tables. In such case we must *not* return to the faulting insn - that would repeat the entire thing without making any progress; what we need instead is to treat that as failed (user) memory access.
