[PATCH 09/15] fscrypt: drop empty name check from fname_decrypt()

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

 



From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

fname_decrypt() is validating that the encrypted filename is nonempty.
However, earlier a stronger precondition was already enforced: the
encrypted filename must be at least 16 (FS_CRYPTO_BLOCK_SIZE) bytes.

Drop the redundant check for an empty filename.
