Subject: non working tests on unsigned f->pseudoflavor
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2009 16:08:39 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49EDD367.9000709@gmail.com> (raw)
vi include/linux/nfsd/export.h +77
and note that struct exp_flavor_info f->pseudoflavor in secinfo_parse() is
unsigned. Should there maybe be a test:
if (f->pseudoflavor > MAX)
(and what should MAX be then?)
Otherwise you may want to apply the cleanup patch below
