Subject: [PATCH] mkfs.jffs2.c: Fix issue with crashing when using lzo compression
Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2008 17:27:12 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4804BB40.9080403@hut.fi> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 352 bytes --]
Calling jffs2_compressors_init() before page_size results in invalid
compression buffer, which in turn leads to segmentation fault when lzo
compression is used, for example:
mkfs.jffs2 -r /path-to/mtd-test -o /tmp/mtd-test.jffs2 -e 128KiB -l -n
-X lzo -x zlib
Thanks to Siarhei Siamashka <siarhei dot siamashka at nokia dot com> for
the patch.
