Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] EDAC: Fix sysfs dimm_label store operation
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2015 08:58:03 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1442933883-21587-3-git-send-email-toshi.kani@hpe.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1442933883-21587-1-git-send-email-toshi.kani@hpe.com>

Sysfs "dimm_label" and "chX_dimm_label" have the following issues
in their store operation.

 1) A newline-terminated input string causes redundant newlines

  # echo "test" > /sys/bus/mc0/devices/dimm0/dimm_label
  # cat  /sys/bus/mc0/devices/dimm0/dimm_label
  test

  #  od -bc /sys/bus/mc0/devices/dimm0/dimm_label
  0000000 164 145 163 164 012 012
            t   e   s   t  \n  \n
  0000006

 2) The original label string (31 characters) cannot be stored due to
    an improper size check

  # echo "CPU_SrcID#0_Ha#0_Chan#0_DIMM#0" \
  > /sys/bus/mc0/devices/dimm0/dimm_label
  # cat /sys/bus/mc0/devices/dimm0/dimm_label


  # od -bc /sys/bus/mc0/devices/dimm0/dimm_label
   0000000 012 012
            \n  \n
   0000002

 3) An input string longer than the buffer size results a wrong label
    info as it allows a retry with the remaining string.

  # echo "CPU_SrcID#0_Ha#0_Chan#0_DIMM#0_TEST" \
  > /sys/bus/mc0/devices/dimm0/dimm_label
  # cat  /sys/bus/mc0/devices/dimm0/dimm_label
  _TEST

Fix these issues by making the following changes:
 1) Replace a newline charactor at the end by setting a null. It also
    assures that the string is null-terminated within the size.
 2) Check the label buffer size with 'sizeof(dimm->label)'.
 3) Fail a request if its string exceeds the label buffer size.
