Guarded Userspace Access Prevention is a security mechanism that prevents
the kernel from being able to read and write userspace addresses outside of
the allowed paths, most commonly copy_{to/from}_user().
At present, the only CPU that supports this is POWER9, and only
Guarded Userspace Access Prevention is a security mechanism that prevents
the kernel from being able to read and write userspace addresses outside of
the allowed paths, most commonly copy_{to/from}_user().
At present, the only CPU that supports this is POWER9, and only while using
the Radix MMU.
