This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled netrom: fix invalid use of sizeof in nr_recvmsg() to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.8.13.4. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.8.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From e3dd0d910b3741780b125437ae7be4a994d0cac8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wei Yongjun <yongjun_wei@trendmicro.com.cn> Date: Tue, 9 Apr 2013 10:07:19 +0800 Subject: netrom: fix invalid use of sizeof in nr_recvmsg() commit c802d759623acbd6e1ee9fbdabae89159a513913 upstream. sizeof() when applied to a pointer typed expression gives the size of the pointer, not that of the pointed data.
