Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net: netconsole: fix wrong warning<br />
<br />
A warning is triggered when there is insufficient space in the buffer<br />
for userdata. However, this is not an issue since userdata will be sent<br />
in the next iteration.<br />
<br />
Current warning message:<br />
<br />
------------[ cut here ]------------<br />
WARNING: CPU: 13 PID: 3013042 at drivers/net/netconsole.c:1122 write_ext_msg+0x3b6/0x3d0<br />
? write_ext_msg+0x3b6/0x3d0<br />
console_flush_all+0x1e9/0x330<br />
<br />
The code incorrectly issues a warning when this_chunk is zero, which is<br />
a valid scenario. The warning should only be triggered when this_chunk<br />
is negative.
