kdb: Censor attempts to set PROMPT without ENABLE_MEM_READ
Currently the PROMPT variable could be abused to provoke the printf() machinery to read outside the current stack frame. Normally this doesn't matter becaues md is already a much better tool for reading from memory. However the md command can be disabled by not setting KDB_ENABLE_MEM_READ. Let's also prevent PROMPT from being modified in these circumstances. Whilst adding a comment to help future code reviewers we also remove the #ifdef where PROMPT in consumed. There is no problem passing an unused (0) to snprintf when !CONFIG_SMP. argument Reported-by: Wang Xiayang <xywang.sjtu@sjtu.edu.cn> Signed-off-by: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Douglas Anderson <dianders@chromium.org>
