[PATCH 5.4 137/141] kobject_uevent: remove warning in init_uevent_argv()

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

 



From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit b4104180a2efb85f55e1ba1407885c9421970338 upstream.

syzbot can trigger the WARN() in init_uevent_argv() which isn't the
nicest as the code does properly recover and handle the error.  So
change the WARN() call to pr_warn() and provide some more information on
what the buffer size that was needed.
