vsprintf: Consistent %pK handling for kptr_restrict == 0
restricted_pointer() pretends that it prints the address when kptr_restrict is set to zero. But it is never called in this situation. Instead, pointer() falls back to ptr_to_id() and hashes the pointer. This patch removes the potential confusion. klp_restrict is checked only in restricted_pointer(). It actually fixes a small race when the address might get printed unhashed: CPU0 CPU1 pointer() if (!kptr_restrict) /* for example set to 2 */ restricted_pointer() /* echo 0 >/proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict */ proc_dointvec_minmax_sysadmin() klpr_restrict = 0; switch(kptr_restrict) case 0: break: number() Fixes: ef0010a30935de4e0211 ("vsprintf: don't use 'restricted_pointer()' when not restricting") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190417115350.20479-3-pmladek@suse.com To: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> To: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: "Tobin C .
