All instructions copying data between kernel and user memory are tagged with either _ASM_EXTABLE_UA or _ASM_EXTABLE_CPY entries in the exception table. ex_fault_handler_type() returns EX_HANDLER_UACCESS for both of these. Recovery is only possible when the machine check was triggered on a read from user memory. In this case the same strategy for recovery applies as if the user had made the access in ring3. If the fault was in kernel memory while copying to user there is no current recovery plan. For MOV and MOVZ instructions a full decode of the instruction is done to find the source address. For MOVS instructions the source address is in the %rsi register. The function fault_in_kernel_space() determines whether the source address is kernel or user, upgrade it from "static" so it can be used here.
