From 1f2b69f9bdce8461341e5fb864568a2ee90079c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Mundt Date: Mon, 5 Mar 2007 00:30:31 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] fb: sm501fb off-by-1 sysfs store Currently sm501fb_crtsrc_store() won't allow the routing to be changed via echos from userspace in to the sysfs file. The reason for this is that the strnicmp() for both heads uses a sizeof() for the string length, which ends up being strlen() + 1 (\0 in the normal case, but the echo gives a newline, which is where the issue occurs), this then causes a mismatch and subsequently bails with the -EINVAL. In addition to this, the hardcoded lengths were then used for the store length that was returned, which ended up being erroneous and resulting in a write error. There's also no point in returning anything but the full length since it will -EINVAL out on a mismatch well before then anyways. sizeof("string") is great for making sure you have space in your buffer, but rather less so for string comparisons :-) Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt Acked-by: Ben Dooks Cc: "Antonino A.
