-Subject: [PATCH 8/9] dmidecode: Use read_file() to read the DMI table from
- sysfs
-
-We shouldn't use mem_chunk() to read the DMI table from sysfs. This
-will fail for SMBIOS v3 implementations which specify a maximum length
-for the table rather than its exact length. The kernel will trim the
-table to the actual length, so the DMI file will be shorter than the
-length announced in entry point.
-
-read_file() fits the bill in this case, as it deals with end of file
-nicely.
-
-This also helps with corrupted DMI tables, as the kernel will not
-export the part of the table that it wasn't able to parse, effectively
-trimming it.
-
-This fixes bug #46176:
-https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?46176
-Unexpected end of file error
