From c708c57e247775928b9a6bce7b4d8d14883bf39b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Glauber Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2011 10:15:31 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] [S390] prng: prevent access beyond end of stack While initializing the state of the prng only the first 8 bytes of random data where used, the second 8 bytes were read from the memory after the stack. If only 64 bytes of the kernel stack are used and CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled a kernel panic may occur because of the invalid page access. Use the correct multiplicator to stay within the random data buffer.
