From 04a1e62c2cec820501f93526ad1e46073b802dc4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Thu, 17 Dec 2009 07:04:56 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] x86/ptrace: make genregs[32]_get/set more robust The loop condition is fragile: we compare an unsigned value to zero, and then decrement it by something larger than one in the loop. All the callers should be passing in appropriately aligned buffer lengths, but it's better to just not rely on it, and have some appropriate defensive loop limits.
