Subject: kernel programming donts
Date: Wed, 04 Jan 2006 09:19:36 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <BAY7-F20B9964B2E040C06705307C52F0@phx.gbl> (raw)
Is there a list of kernel / driver development "donts" documented in 1
place. I'm looking for examples of coding errors that would lead to
leaks, crashes or vulnerabilities - like using tainted data from
copy_from_user() in an unsafe way. Have these things been collected in 1
place?
The only thing I could find was the coding style document - but I'm looking
for more meaty problems than commenting style.
Thanks
-J
