Since moving the message buffers off the stack, the dynamically allocated get-prop-descriptor request buffer is incorrectly sized due to using the pointer rather than request-struct size when creating the operation. Fortunately, the pointer size is always larger than this one-byte request, but this could still cause trouble on the remote end due to the unexpected message size.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
