Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ext4: fix string copying in parse_apply_sb_mount_options()
Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2025 16:09:48 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251028130949.599847-2-pchelkin@ispras.ru> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251028130949.599847-1-pchelkin@ispras.ru>

strscpy_pad() can't be used to copy a possibly non-NUL-term string into a
NUL-term string.  Commit 0efc5990bca5 ("string.h: Introduce memtostr() and
memtostr_pad()") provides additional information in that regard.  So if
this happens, the following warning is observed:

strnlen: detected buffer overflow: 65 byte read of buffer size 64

Since s_es->s_mount_opts might be non-NUL-term, annotate it with
__nonstring and use the proper memtostr_pad() routine to get its NULL-term
copy.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.
