From 825332e4ff1373c55d931b49408df7ec2298f71e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arjan van de Ven Date: Wed, 14 Oct 2009 08:17:36 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] capabilities: simplify bound checks for copy_from_user() The capabilities syscall has a copy_from_user() call where gcc currently cannot prove to itself that the copy is always within bounds. This patch adds a very explicity bound check to prove to gcc that this copy_from_user cannot overflow its destination buffer.
