Ditto for chained functions. Between them sparse and the compiler rather force you to find everything.

Because I've got at least 64 bytes I can convert in-situ and assume (in getsockopt()) that I can action the request (if it only only a read) and check the length later. With only a memdup_user() you can't make those changes. > From Christoph's to David's: > @@ -2249,11 +2248,11 @@ static int sctp_setsockopt_autoclose(struct sock *sk, u32 *autoclose, > return -EOPNOTSUPP; > if (optlen != sizeof(int)) > return -EINVAL; > - > - if (*autoclose > net->sctp.max_autoclose) > + > + sp->autoclose = *optval; > + > + if (sp->autoclose > net->sctp.max_autoclose) > sp->autoclose = net->sctp.max_autoclose; > - else > - sp->autoclose = *autoclose; I was trying not to make extra changes. (Apart from error path ones.) Clearly that should be: sp->autoclose = min(*optval, net->sctp.max_autoclose); But that requires additional thought. > > If you try to do getsockopt() the same way it will be much > > more complicated - you have to know whether the called function > > did the copy_to_user() and then suppress it. > > If it is not possible, then the setsockopt one already splited half of > the lines of the patch. :-) Apart from the getsockopt() that is really a setsockopt() (CONNECTX3). That might tie you in real knots. David - Registered Address Lakeside, Bramley Road, Mount Farm, Milton Keynes, MK1 1PT, UK Registration No: 1397386 (Wales)
