From: Dexuan Cui <decui@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit a58015d638cd4e4555297b04bec9b49028369075 upstream. Linux VM on Hyper-V crashes with the latest mainline: [ 4.069624] detected buffer overflow in strcpy [ 4.077733] kernel BUG at lib/string.c:1149! .. [ 4.085819] RIP: 0010:fortify_panic+0xf/0x11 ... [ 4.085819] Call Trace: [ 4.085819] acpi_device_add.cold.15+0xf2/0xfb [ 4.085819] acpi_add_single_object+0x2a6/0x690 [ 4.085819] acpi_bus_check_add+0xc6/0x280 [ 4.085819] acpi_ns_walk_namespace+0xda/0x1aa [ 4.085819] acpi_walk_namespace+0x9a/0xc2 [ 4.085819] acpi_bus_scan+0x78/0x90 [ 4.085819] acpi_scan_init+0xfa/0x248 [ 4.085819] acpi_init+0x2c1/0x321 [ 4.085819] do_one_initcall+0x44/0x1d0 [ 4.085819] kernel_init_freeable+0x1ab/0x1f4 This is because of the recent buffer overflow detection in the commit 6a39e62abbaf ("lib: string.h: detect intra-object overflow in fortified string functions") Here acpi_device_bus_id->bus_id can only hold 14 characters, while the the acpi_device_hid(device) returns a 22-char string "HYPER_V_GEN_COUNTER_V1". Per ACPI Spec v6.2, Section 6.1.5 _HID (Hardware ID), if the ID is a string, it must be of the form AAA#### or NNNN####, i.e. 7 chars or 8 chars. The field bus_id in struct acpi_device_bus_id was originally defined as char bus_id[9], and later was enlarged to char bus_id[15] in 2007 in the commit bb0958544f3c ("ACPI: use more understandable bus_id for ACPI devices") Fix the issue by changing the field bus_id to const char *, and use kstrdup_const() to initialize it.
