Subject: [PATCH] reiser4progs: Limit printing of label to the maximum of 16 chars
Date: Sat, 29 Dec 2012 14:17:53 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121229141749.GA8581@gmail.com> (raw)

For a reiser4 file system with exactly the maximum size 16 character
label, debugfs.reiser4 prints junk from memory at the end of the label.
This is because the label is read into a 16 character array and is
printed as a string, but there isn't a nul terminating character.

    # mkfs.reiser4 --yes --label abcdefghij123456 /dev/sda13
    # debugfs.reiser4 /dev/sda13 2> /dev/null | grep label:
    label:          abcdefghij123456!

Print at most 16 characters of the label.
