From 5d3fd692a7196a9045fb606f891f5987959b65a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Richter Date: Sun, 4 Jan 2009 16:23:29 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] firewire: cdev: extend transaction payload size check Make the size check of ioctl_send_request and ioctl_send_broadcast_request speed dependent. Also change the error return code from -EINVAL to -EIO to distinguish this from other errors concerning the ioctl parameters. Another payload size limit for which we don't check here though is the remote node's Bus_Info_Block.max_rec.
