[PATCH] tpm/eventlog: Limit memory allocations for event logs with excessive size

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

 



The TPM2 ACPI BIOS eventlog of a particular machine indicates that the
length of the log is 4MB, even though the actual length of its useful data,
when dumped, are only 69kb. To avoid allocating excessive amounts of memory
for the event log, limit the size of any eventlog to 128kb. This should be
sufficient memory and also not unnecessarily truncate event logs on any
other machine.
