From 137f8cff505ace6251dc442c7aa973d60c801a79 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2014 15:18:40 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm/zpool: use prefixed module loading To avoid potential format string expansion via module parameters, do not use the zpool type directly in request_module() without a format string. Additionally, to avoid arbitrary modules being loaded via zpool API (e.g. via the zswap_zpool_type module parameter) add a "zpool-" prefix to the requested module, as well as module aliases for the existing zpool types (zbud and zsmalloc).
