Hello David Miller:

in net/atm/atm_sysfs.c:
  suggest to check the write length whether larger than a page.
  the length of parameter buf is one page size (reference: fill_read_buffer at fs/sysfs/file.c)
  and the count of atm adresses are not limited (reference: atm_dev_ioctl -> atm_add_addr)

  thanks.

gchen.

  firstly, sorry for reply late (yesterday I have an annual leave for
some personal things).

  and thank you for your reply, too.

  "%p" seems print a pointer, not contents of pointer (is it correct ?)

  will it change the original display format to outside ?

  need we judge whether count >= PAGE_SIZE ?


  these are my suggestions, maybe not correct.

  :-)

  thanks.

%pM means format this pointer as a mac address.  it didnt exist when the
atm stack was originally written but can be used now to save a bit of
messy code.

count will eventually make PAGE_SIZE - count reach 0 at which point,
scnprintf() won't be able to write into the buffer.

  I also think so.

  I think, maybe it will be better to break the loop when we already
know that "count >= PAGE_SIZE" (it can save waste looping, although it
seems unlikly happen, for example, using unlikly(...) ).

By the way:
  will it be better that always let "\n" at the end ?
  (if count == PAGE_SIZE in a loop, we can not let "\n" at the end).



  I think what I said above are minor, if you think, for this patch, do
not need consider them, it is ok (at least for me, it is true).

   oh, sorry ! count will never >= PAGE_SIZE.

   I think let "PAGE_SIZE - 2" instead of "PAGE_SIZE" in the loop, so we
can make the room for the end of "\n".

   sorry, "PAGE_SIZE - 1" is enough, not need "PAGE_SIZE - 2".

it doesn't seem like optimizing for this corner case is a huge
concern.  the list cannot be infinitely long.

did you mean '\0' instead of '\n'?  scnprintf() considers the trailing
'\0' when formatting.

  no, originally, the end is "\n\0".

  I prefer we still compatible "\n" when the contents are very large.
  if count already == (PAGE_SIZE - 1), we have no chance to append "\n" to the end.

-		pos += sprintf(pos, "\n");
+		count += scnprintf(buf + count, PAGE_SIZE - count, "\n");

Hi Chas Williams:

  all of my original reply are my idea (or suggestions), not for issues.

  if you do not need them, please help to send patch.

  I have tried to check it. at least, I did not find issues (and I also
also learned from it)

  hope the patch can pass reviewers checking !

  Good Luck !

  :-)

i would make the code a bit messy to do this for not much gain.  again,
it isnt likely you would run into this in a normal situation.

Hello Chas Williams:

  Excuse me:
    I am a reporter (not a reviewer), and not suitable to review another's patch.

  so:
    I suggest you to send your patch (as your willing) to the reviewers, directly.
    and need not cc to me (I am not a reviewer).

  thanks.

gchen.
