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

 



4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4458bba09788e70e8fb39ad003f087cd9dfbd6ac upstream.

syzbot is hitting warning at str_read() [1] because len parameter can
become larger than KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE. We don't need to emit warning for
this case.
