So here you have the extra -ENOENT return value, but at the direct/indirect call sites you ignore -EINVAL or everything. > +static int mpx_unmap_tables(struct mm_struct *mm, > + unsigned long start, unsigned long end) > + ret = unmap_edge_bts(mm, start, end); > + if (ret == -EFAULT) > + return ret; So here you ignore EINVAL despite claiming that it will cause a SIGSEGV. So this should be: switch (ret) { case 0: case -ENOENT: break; default: return ret; } > + for (bd_entry = bde_start + 1; bd_entry < bde_end; bd_entry++) { > + ret = get_bt_addr(mm, bd_entry, &bt_addr); > + /* > + * If we encounter an issue like a bad bounds-directory > + * we should still try the next one. > + */ > + if (ret) > + continue; You ignore all error returns. switch (ret) { case 0: break; case -ENOENT: continue; default: return ret; } Other than that, this all looks very reasonable now.
