[PATCH 4.9 43/50] lkdtm: Add tests for NULL pointer dereference

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Apr 18 2019 - 14:08:49 EST


[ Upstream commit 59a12205d3c32aee4c13ca36889fdf7cfed31126 ]

Introduce lkdtm tests for NULL pointer dereference: check access or exec
at NULL address, since these errors tend to be reported differently from
the general fault error text. For example from x86:

pr_alert("BUG: unable to handle kernel %s at %px\n",
address < PAGE_SIZE ? "NULL pointer dereference" : "paging request",
(void *)address);
