While this avoids the integer overflow from before, any user can cause the kernel to kmalloc up to INT_MAX bytes. Probably not a huge deal because it's freed at the end of the syscall, but generally not a great idea. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
