Subject: [PATCH v2] zram: fix pool name truncation
Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2015 00:43:29 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1439307809-914-1-git-send-email-sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1439299983-8070-1-git-send-email-sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>

zram_meta_alloc() constructs a pool name for zs_create_pool() call
as
 snprintf(pool_name, sizeof(pool_name), "zram%d", device_id);

However, it defines pool name buffer to be only 8 chars long
(minus trailing zero), which means that we can have only 1000
pool names: zram0 -- zram999.

With CONFIG_ZSMALLOC_STAT enabled an attempt to create a device
zram1000 can fail if device zram100 already exists, because
snprintf() will truncate new pool name to zram100 and pass it
to debugfs_create_dir(), causing:

  debugfs dir <zram100> creation failed
  zram: Error creating memory pool

... and so on (zram101 - zram1010, etc).

Fix it by increasing pool_name buffer size to 15:
-- zram prefix (length 4)
-- int device_id can use up to 10 chars
-- terminating zero byte
