Subject: [patch 04/30] char: moxa, prevent opening unavailable ports
Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2009 16:59:48 -0700 [thread overview]

2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Dirk Eibach <eibach@gdsys.de>
commit a90b037583d5f1ae3e54e9c687c79df82d1d34a4 upstream.
In moxa.c there are 32 minor numbers reserved for each device. The number
of ports actually available per device is stored in
moxa_board_conf->numPorts. This number is not considered in moxa_open().
Opening a port that is not available results in a kernel oops. This patch
adds a test to moxa_open() that prevents opening unavailable ports.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: avoid multiple returns]
