Revision 032146cda85566abcd1c4884d9d23e4e30a07e9a authored by Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) on 18 October 2021, 22:16:12 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 19 October 2021, 06:22:03 UTC
If we open a file without read access and then pass the fd to a syscall
whose implementation calls kernel_read_file_from_fd(), we get a warning
from __kernel_read():

        if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!(file->f_mode & FMODE_READ)))

This currently affects both finit_module() and kexec_file_load(), but it
could affect other syscalls in the future.
