Linux内核有一个usercopy whitelist机制,只允许这里面的region来做usercopy。如果是用kmem_cache_create申请的kmem_cache申请的内存空间来copy to user或者copy from user,那么就会报这个错。这时要用kmem_cache_create_usercopy,来将申请的区域加入到usercopy whitelist中。
/**
* kmem_cache_create_usercopy - Create a cache with a region suitable
* for copying to userspace
* @name: A string which is used in /proc/slabinfo to identify this cache.
* @size: The size of objects to be created in this cache.
* @align: The required alignment for the objects.
* @flags: SLAB flags
* @useroffset: Usercopy region offset
* @usersize: Usercopy region size
* @ctor: A constructor for the objects.
*
* Cannot be called within a interrupt, but can be interrupted.
* The @ctor is run when new pages are allocated by the cache.
*
* The flags are
*
* %SLAB_POISON - Poison the slab with a known test pattern (a5a5a5a5)
* to catch references to uninitialised memory.
*
* %SLAB_RED_ZONE - Insert `Red` zones around the allocated memory to check
* for buffer overruns.
*
* %SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN - Align the objects in this cache to a hardware
* cacheline. This can be beneficial if you're counting cycles as closely
* as davem.
*
* Return: a pointer to the cache on success, NULL on failure.

struct kmem_cache *
kmem_cache_create_usercopy(const char *name,
unsigned int size, unsigned int align,
slab_flags_t flags,
unsigned int useroffset, unsigned int usersize,
void (*ctor)(void *))
其中offset是指region相对于申请的内存的首地址的偏移量。如果整个区域都是,那么就设置为0。
