[PATCH 3/3] memcg: replace memparse to avoid input overflow

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

 



memparse() doesn't check if overflow has happens, and it even has no
args to inform user that the unexpected situation has occurred. Besides,
some of its callers make a little artful use of the current implementation
and it also seems to involve too much if changing memparse() interface.

This patch rewrites memcg's internal res_counter_memparse_write_strategy().
It doesn't use memparse() any more and replaces simple_strtoull() with
kstrtoull() to avoid input overflow.
