Subject: dmidecode: Use read_file() to read the DMI table from sysfs
|
||
|
Git-commit: 364055211b1956539c6a6268e111e244e1292c8c

|
We shouldn't use mem_chunk() to read the DMI table from sysfs. This
|
||
|
will fail for SMBIOS v3 implementations which specify a maximum length
|
||
|
for the table rather than its exact length. The kernel will trim the
|
||
|
table to the actual length, so the DMI file will be shorter than the
|
||
|
length announced in entry point.
|
||
|
|
||
|
read_file() fits the bill in this case, as it deals with end of file
|
||
|
nicely.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This also helps with corrupted DMI tables, as the kernel will not
|
||
|
export the part of the table that it wasn't able to parse, effectively
|
||
|
trimming it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This fixes bug #46176:
