Subject: [PATCH 2/4] lib/vsprintf.c: also improve sanity check in bstr_printf()
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2015 19:41:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1443202865-25533-3-git-send-email-linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1443202865-25533-1-git-send-email-linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk>
Quoting from 2aa2f9e21e4e ("lib/vsprintf.c: improve sanity check in
vsnprintf()"):
On 64 bit, size may very well be huge even if bit 31 happens to be 0.
Somehow it doesn't feel right that one can pass a 5 GiB buffer but not a
3 GiB one. So cap at INT_MAX as was probably the intention all along.
This is also the made-up value passed by sprintf and vsprintf.
I should have seen this copy-pasted instance back then, but let's just
do it now.
