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

 



3.11-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "David S. Miller" <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 2bd161a605f1f84a5fc8a4fe8410113a94f79355 ]

Commit 117a0c5fc9c2d06045bd217385b2b39ea426b5a6 ("sparc: kernel: using
strlcpy() instead of strcpy()") added a bug to ldom_reboot in
arch/sparc/kernel/ds.c

-		strcpy(full_boot_str + strlen("boot "), boot_command);
+				     strlcpy(full_boot_str + strlen("boot "), boot_command,
+				     			     sizeof(full_boot_str + strlen("boot ")));

That last sizeof() expression evaluates to sizeof(size_t) which is
not what was intended.

Also even the corrected:

     sizeof(full_boot_str) + strlen("boot ")

is not right as the destination buffer length is just plain
"sizeof(full_boot_str)" and that's what the final argument
should be.
