Subject: [PATCH 12/12] driver core: numa: fix BUILD_BUG_ON for node_read_distance
Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2010 08:18:55 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1269011935-8886-12-git-send-email-gregkh@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100319151311.GA8541@kroah.com>

From: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com>

node_read_distance() has a BUILD_BUG_ON() to prevent buffer overruns when
the number of nodes printed will exceed the buffer length.

Each node only needs four chars: three for distance (maximum distance is
255) and one for a seperating space or a trailing newline.
