[PATCH] [SCSI] sd: Fix parsing of 'temporary ' cache mode prefix

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

 



Commit 39c60a0948cc '[SCSI] sd: fix array cache flushing bug causing
performance problems' added temp as a pointer to "temporary " and used
sizeof(temp) - 1 as its length.  But sizeof(temp) is the size of the
pointer, not the size of the string constant.  Change temp to a static
array so that sizeof() does what was intended.

Compile-tested only.
