[edk2-devel] [PATCH v1 1/6] ShellPkg: acpiview: Allow passing buffer length to DumpGasStruct()

Hi Zhichao,

Sorry about private emails, I just mistakenly hit the wrong button. I forgot that the emails do not get sent to the mailing list unless I hit 'Reply all' (silly mistake).

I see your point. I will submit v2 of this patchset with:
> DumpGasStruct (DataPtr, 4, *DbgDevInfoLen);
Replaced with
> DumpGasStruct (DataPtr, 4, GAS_LENGTH);

Is that ok?

Kind regards,

Krzysztof

HI Krzysztof,

Why do you send the email to me only? I think it is fine to send to the community. It would let more people who are interest with this component join the discuss. Maybe not . :(

Then for your comments:
Sorry,  I missed the commit message before. But I don't think keeping an inappropriate code with a commit massage to explain that is OK. If you have a plan to fix that, it should combine into one patch.
Back to the code, I don't find out the possibility of overrun of buffer when use 'GAS_LENGTH'. And DataPtr + * DbgDevInfoLen definitely overflow.
    DevInfoPtr                         DataPtr                                   EndDevInfoPtr
---|---------------------------|------------------------------|----
     |<-- DbgDevInfoLen                                                     -> |

Thanks,
Zhichao
