[PATCH 1/4] firmware_loader: EFI firmware loader must handle pre-allocated buffer

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

 



The EFI platform firmware fallback would clobber any pre-allocated
buffers. Instead, correctly refuse to reallocate when too small (as
already done in the sysfs fallback), or perform allocation normally
when needed.

Fixes: e4c2c0ff00ec ("firmware: Add new platform fallback mechanism and firm ware_request_platform()")
