[PATCH] NFS: Remove superfluous kmap in nfs_readdir_xdr_to_array

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

 



Array is mapped by nfs_readdir_get_array(), the further kmap is a result
of a bad merge and should be removed.

This resource leakage can be exploited for DoS by receptively reading
a content of a directory on NFS (e.g. by running ls).
