Subject: [PATCH net 0/3] netconsole: configfs store callback fixes
Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2026 02:41:14 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260423-netconsole_ai_fixes-v1-0-92b8b7de9a2c@debian.org> (raw)
This series fixes a small cluster of related issues in netconsole's
configfs store callbacks.
They showed up in sashiko and brought to my attention by Simon:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260421162219.GF651125@horms.kernel.org/
None are crashes or security problems, but each is a real correctness
bug that surfaces at boundary conditions and was easy to clean up while
the code was already under the microscope.
All three changes narrow the accepted write size by exactly one byte
at the boundary that was previously buggy, so no well-behaved
userspace should notice the tightening.

Breno Leitao (3):
netconsole: return count instead of strnlen(buf, count) from store callbacks
netconsole: avoid clobbering userdatum value on truncated write
netconsole: propagate device name truncation in dev_name_store()
