Subject: [PATCH] netdevice: Fix wrong string handle in kernel command line parsing
Date: Mon, 30 Jun 2008 13:22:02 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <48686D7A.9030200@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)

1. In netdev_boot_setup_add(), a long name will leak.
   ex. : dev=21,0x1234,0x1234,0x2345,eth123456789verylongname.........
2. In netdev_boot_setup_check(), mismatch will happen if s[i].name
   is a substring of dev->name.
   ex. : dev=...eth1 dev=...eth11
