The patch titled tpm: Use correct data types for sizes in tpm_write() and tpm_read() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was tpm-use-correct-data-types-for-sizes-in-tpm_write-and-tpm_read.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: tpm: Use correct data types for sizes in tpm_write() and tpm_read() From: Michael Halcrow <mhalcrow@xxxxxxxxxx> Use the correct data types for the size parameters in tpm_write() and tpm_read(). Note that rw_verify_area() makes sure that this bug cannot be exploited to produce a buffer overrun.
