From: Linus Torvalds Date: Mon, 18 Apr 2011 17:36:54 +0000 (-0700) Subject: proc: do proper range check on readdir offset X-Git-Tag: 2.1b_release~4421 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d8bdc59f215e62098bc5b4256fd9928bf27053a1;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Fkernel-mfld-blackbay.git proc: do proper range check on readdir offset Rather than pass in some random truncated offset to the pid-related functions, check that the offset is in range up-front. This is just cleanup, the previous commit fixed the real problem.
