From ef4db239cda2d74f53120e223643b0f5bbf947c1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takashi Iwai Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2018 23:12:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: rawmidi: Use kvmalloc() for buffers The size of in-kernel rawmidi buffers may be big up to 1MB, and it can be specified freely by user-space; which implies that user-space may trigger kmalloc() errors frequently. This patch replaces the buffer allocation via kvmalloc() for dealing with bigger buffers gracefully.
