Subject: [PATCH 2/4] xtables: fix excessive memory allocation in host_to_ipaddr
Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2011 19:10:11 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1298333413-14253-3-git-send-email-westacular@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1298333413-14253-1-git-send-email-westacular@gmail.com>

host_to_ipaddr was unnecessarily asking for an array of length n^2
to store just n addresses.
