    /proc/sysvipc/shm: fix 32-bit truncation of segment sizes · 6c826818
    Paul Menage 提交于
    sysvipc_shm_proc_show() picks between format strings (based on the
    expected maximum length of a SHM segment) in a way that prevents gcc from
    performing format checks on the seq_printf() parameters.  This hid two
    format errors - shp->shm_segsz and shp->shm_nattach are both unsigned
    long, but were being printed as unsigned int and signed int respectively.
    This leads to 32-bit truncation of SHM segment sizes reported in
    /proc/sysvipc/shm.  (And for nattach, but that's less of a problem for
    most users).
    
    This patch makes the format string directly visible to gcc's format
    specifier checker, and fixes the two broken format specifiers.
