[patch added to 3.12-stable] tty: vt, fix bogus division in csi_J

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

 



This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit 42acfc6615f47e465731c263bee0c799edb098f2 upstream.

In csi_J(3), the third parameter of scr_memsetw (vc_screenbuf_size) is
divided by 2 inappropriatelly. But scr_memsetw expects size, not
count, because it divides the size by 2 on its own before doing actual
memset-by-words.

So remove the bogus division.
