Subject: [10/12] V4L: Fix VIDIOCGAP corruption in ivtv
Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2008 11:50:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080429185005.GL24199@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080429184911.GA24199@suse.de>

[-- Attachment #1: v4l-fix-vidiocgap-corruption-in-ivtv.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1548 bytes --]


2.6.24-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

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

From: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk>

Frank Bennett reported that ivtv was causing skype to crash. With help
from one of their developers he showed it was a kernel problem.
VIDIOCGCAP copies a name into a fixed length buffer - ivtv uses names
that are too long and does not truncate them so corrupts a few bytes of
the app data area.

Possibly the names also want trimming but for now this should fix the
corruption case.
