Subject: [PATCH] af9015: fix stack corruption bug
Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2009 00:31:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c4bc83220906091531h20677733kd993ed50c0bc74ec@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

This patch fixes stack corruption bug present in af9015_eeprom_dump():
the buffer buf is one byte smaller than required - there is 4 chars
for address prefix, 16*3 chars for dump of 16 eeprom bytes per line
and 1 byte for zero ending the string required, i.e. 53 bytes, but
only 52 are provided.
The one byte missing in stack based buffer buf causes following oops
on MIPS little endian platform, because i2c_adap pointer in
af9015_af9013_frontend_attach() is corrupted by inlined function
af9015_eeprom_dump():
