[PATCH 4/4] Check on-disk chunk size.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Check on-disk chunk size.

The previous code blindly used the chunk size stored on disk. This is wrong
because it can lead to a crash if the disk storage is corrupted. See

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461506

This code passes on-disk size through similar checks as size specified
on the table argument line, thus it won't allow to use bogus values (such
as zero, in case of that bug).
