Date: Sun, 4 Jan 2009 16:30:32 +0100 (CET) From: Stefan Richter <stefanr@...6.in-berlin.de> To: linux1394-devel@...ts.sourceforge.net cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 10/11] firewire: cdev: extend transaction payload size check Make the size check of ioctl_send_request and ioctl_send_broadcast_request speed dependent. Also change the error return code from -EINVAL to -EIO to distinguish this from other errors concerning the ioctl parameters. Another payload size limit for which we don't check here though is the remote node's Bus_Info_Block.max_rec.
