[PATCH] bfs: prevent underflow in bfs_find_entry()

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

 



We check if "namelen" is larger than BFS_NAMELEN but we don't check
if it's less than zero so it causes a static checker.

    fs/bfs/dir.c:346 bfs_find_entry() warn: no lower bound on 'namelen'

It's nicer to make it unsigned anyway.
