Subject: [Ocfs2-devel] [patch] ocfs2: fix recent memory corruption bug
Date: Thu, 1 Aug 2013 16:55:26 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130801135526.GA17153@elgon.mountain> (raw)

The pointer math in 6fdf3af1d2 "ocfs2: fix null pointer dereference in
ocfs2_dir_foreach_blk_id()" isn't correct so it will zero out the wrong
memory.
