Even assuming something silly like having 10 characters for each domain,bus,dev,fn that would still be only 55 bytes. So based on that even something like 64 bytes should be more than enough AFAICS. The other thing that strikes me as bit odd in this code is that it just ignores whatever data is left over after it's done parsing the string. But it returns the full count to userspace, indicating it ate all of it. I guess that's fairly sane when userspace just uses a fixed size buffer and checks that the kernel consumed it all. But maybe there should be an actual check to see that there's a '\0' or maybe <any amount of whitespace>+'\0' after the parsed string. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel OTC _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
