From 748a7295d7242bc1aaaec0e245cc61f2be754766 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vladimir Zapolskiy Date: Tue, 26 May 2015 03:50:04 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] net: netxen: correct sysfs bin attribute return code If read() syscall requests unexpected number of bytes from "dimm" binary attribute file, return EINVAL instead of EPERM. At the same time pin down sysfs file size to the fixed sizeof(struct netxen_dimm_cfg), which allows to exploit some missing sanity checks from kernfs (file boundary checks vs offset etc.) Signed-off-by: Vladimir Zapolskiy Signed-off-by: David S.
