__get_user - Get a simple variable from user space, with less checking.
"__get_user(" "x" ", " "ptr" ");"
x
Variable to store result.ptrSource address, in user space.
User context only. This function may sleep.
This macro copies a single simple variable from user space to kernel space. It supports simple types like char and int, but not larger data types like structures or arrays.
ptr must have pointer-to-simple-variable type, and the result of dereferencing ptr must be assignable to x without a cast.
Caller must check the pointer with access_okfR
before calling this function.Returns zero on success, or -EFAULT on error. On error, the variable x is set to zero.
