Subject: [PATCH 4.9 17/17] jfs: Fix inconsistency between memory allocation and ea_buf->max_size
Date: Tue, 7 Aug 2018 20:51:53 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180807172342.986953295@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180807172342.071526922@linuxfoundation.org>
4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Shankara Pailoor <shankarapailoor@gmail.com>
commit 92d34134193e5b129dc24f8d79cb9196626e8d7a upstream.
The code is assuming the buffer is max_size length, but we weren't
allocating enough space for it.
