Then, we can if (count >= sizeof(buf)) return -EINVAL; Ryder

If yes, maybe we need to use sscanf() as other .write to take care of this kind of case, since kstrtou16() will also fail on this case. Btw, some of strlen in other .write are also incorrect, but they won't get the problem due to sscanf(). Do you prefer that we also use sscanf() in .write of airtime_flags? Shayne

Sure, we're at the kernel/userspace trust boundary, we can't just read out-of-bounds? Or what do you mean? johannes
