Subject: [PATCH] squashfs: Fix incorrect argument to sizeof in kmalloc_array call
Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2025 15:26:04 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250708142604.1891156-1-colin.i.king@gmail.com> (raw)
The sizeof(void *) is the incorrect argument in the kmalloc_array call,
it best to fix this by using sizeof(*folio) instead. Fortunately the
sizes of void * and *folio happen to be the same, so this has not shown
up as a run time issue.
Fixes: 2e227ff5e272 ("squashfs: add optional full compressed block caching")
