In theory, all the callers should check EXT4_INODE_SIZE() beforehand... ...but that doesn't seem to be happening for the *INODE_[SG]ET_XTIME macros. I think it's time to turn all those macros into proper static inline functions and make them do the size checks rather than hoping we open-code it correctly. (Also, the XTIME macros themselves are ugly.) --D > > David > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
