[patch] bfa: integer overflow bug in debugfs

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

 



The "len << 2" operation can have an integer overflow and leading to a
kernel crash.  This is debugfs and thus root only so no one really
cares, but we should fix it anyway just to make the static checker
happy.
