3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Kees Cook <keesc...@chromium.org> commit 31fd84b95eb211d5db460a1dda85e004800a7b52 upstream. The min/max call needed to have explicit types on some architectures (e.g. mn10300). Use clamp_t instead to avoid the warning: kernel/sys.c: In function 'override_release': kernel/sys.c:1287:10: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast [enabled by default] Reported-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang...@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keesc...@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torva...@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <b...@decadent.org.uk> --- kernel/sys.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/kernel/sys.c b/kernel/sys.c index 01865c6..e6e0ece 100644 --- a/kernel/sys.c +++ b/kernel/sys.c @@ -1284,7 +1284,7 @@ static int override_release(char __user *release, size_t len) rest++; } v = ((LINUX_VERSION_CODE >> 8) & 0xff) + 40; - copy = min(sizeof(buf), max_t(size_t, 1, len)); + copy = clamp_t(size_t, len, 1, sizeof(buf)); copy = scnprintf(buf, copy, "2.6.%u%s", v, rest); ret = copy_to_user(release, buf, copy + 1); } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
