[PATCH v2] mdopen: Prevent overrunning the devname buffer when copying devnm into it for long md names.

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

 



Linux allows for 32 character device names. When using the maximum size device name and also
storing "/dev/", devname needs to be 37 character long to store the complete device name.
i.e. "/dev/md_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz12\0"
