[PATCH 4.20 20/88] x86/mm/mem_encrypt: Fix erroneous sizeof()

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

 



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

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

[ Upstream commit bf7d28c53453ea904584960de55e33e03b9d93b1 ]

Using sizeof(pointer) for determining the size of a memset() only works
when the size of the pointer and the size of type to which it points are
the same. For pte_t this is only true for 64bit and 32bit-NONPAE. On 32bit
PAE systems this is wrong as the pointer size is 4 byte but the PTE entry
is 8 bytes. It's actually not a real world issue as this code depends on
64bit, but it's wrong nevertheless.

Use sizeof(*p) for correctness sake.
