[PATCH 3.16 094/132] kdb: do a sanity check on the cpu in kdb_per_cpu()

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

 



3.16.74-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit b586627e10f57ee3aa8f0cfab0d6f7dc4ae63760 upstream.

The "whichcpu" comes from argv[3].  The cpu_online() macro looks up the
cpu in a bitmap of online cpus, but if the value is too high then it
could read beyond the end of the bitmap and possibly Oops.

Fixes: 5d5314d6795f ("kdb: core for kgdb back end (1 of 2)")
