Subject: [PATCH] neofb: Fix pseudo_palette array overrun in neofb_setcolreg
Date: Tue, 05 Jun 2007 19:09:33 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4665446D.9020703@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0705310852400.8734@jalava.cc.jyu.fi>

The pseudo_palette has room for 16 entries only, but in truecolor mode, it
attempts to write 256.

Signed-off-by: Antonino Daplas <adaplas@gmail.com>
Acked-by: Tero Roponen <teanropo@jyu.fi>

This fixes the following regression/bug reported as follows:

Subject    : tty-related oops in latest kernel(s)
References : http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/5/27/104
Submitter  : Tero Roponen <teanropo@jyu.fi>
Status     : problem is being debugged

According to Tero, this is also reproducible with 2.6.21.3.
