[PATCH] nfs: don't pass non-NULL-terminated string to pr_notice()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



There is no guarantee that the strings in the nfs_cache_array will be
NULL-terminated. In the event that we end up hitting a readdir loop, we
need to ensure that we pass the warning message a properly-terminated
string.
