[PATCH v2] kexec-tools, ppc64: Fix segfault parsing DR memory property

Matt Evans matt at ozlabs.org
Thu May 13 23:07:53 EDT 2010


add_dyn_reconf_usable_mem_property() iterates over memory spans
in /ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory/ibm,dynamic-memory and intersects
these with usablemem_rgns ranges.  In doing so it used an unchecked
fixed-size array which will overrun on machines with lots of LMBs.

This patch removes the fixed-sized arrays from
add_dyn_reconf_usable_mem_property() and add_usable_mem_property(), in lieu of
malloc/realloc/free.
