The patch titled Subject: scsi: gdth: increase the procfs event buffer size has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was scsi-gdth-increase-the-procfs-event-buffer-size.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Subject: scsi: gdth: increase the procfs event buffer size We print a 256 byte event string into a buffer that is only 161 bytes long, this is clearly wrong: drivers/scsi/gdth_proc.c: In function 'gdth_show_info': drivers/scsi/gdth.c:3660:41: error: '%s' directive writing up to 255 bytes into a region of size between 141 and 150 [-Werror=format-overflow=] sprintf(buffer,"Adapter %d: %s\n", ^~ /git/arm-soc/drivers/scsi/gdth.c:3660:13: note: 'sprintf' output between 13 and 277 bytes into a destination of size 161 sprintf(buffer,"Adapter %d: %s\n", ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ dvr->eu.async.ionode,dvr->event_string); ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ gcc calculates that the worst case buffer size would be 277 bytes, so we can use that.
