* copy_from_user_nmi - NMI safe copy from user

* @to: Pointer to the destination buffer
|
|
* @from: Pointer to a user space address of the current task
|
|
* @n: Number of bytes to copy
|
|
*
|
|
* Returns: The number of not copied bytes. 0 is success, i.e. all bytes copied
|
|
*
|
|
* Contrary to other copy_from_user() variants this function can be called
|
|
* from NMI context. Despite the name it is not restricted to be called
|
|
* from NMI context. It is safe to be called from any other context as
|
|
* well. It disables pagefaults across the copy which means a fault will
|
|
* abort the copy.
|
|
*
|
|
* For NMI context invocations this relies on the nested NMI work to allow
|
|
* atomic faults from the NMI path; the nested NMI paths are careful to
|
|
* preserve CR2.
