Subject: [PATCH 5/5] perf buildid: Fix possible unterminated readlink() result buffer
Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2011 15:27:53 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1318616873-26739-6-git-send-email-acme@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1318616873-26739-1-git-send-email-acme@infradead.org>
From: Thomas Jarosch <thomas.jarosch@intra2net.com>
The readlink function doesn't guarantee that a '\0' will be put at the
end of the provided buffer if there is no space left.
No need to do "buf[len] = '\0';" since the buffer is allocated with
zalloc().
