Yeah, and note that the callers of resolve_path do seem to take a lock,
but that's not a global lock but a per-superblock (or
per-something-else) one... Obviously exfat should not rely on such a
single static buffer, but in the meantime, perhaps one should add a
name_buf_lock (though I don't know how long name_buf is actually in use,
so that needs checking).
Apart from the broken/lack of locking, it would be better to combine the
copying and length checking into a single check - i.e. do
if (strscpy(name_buf, path, sizeof(name_buf)) < 0)
return FFS_INVALIDPATH;
That's both more efficient and fixes the open-coding of sizeof(name_buf)
that is currently used in the if().
