Subject: [RFC][PATCH v3 2/3] Modify return value of nla_strlcpy to match that of strscpy.
Date: Tue, 20 Oct 2020 18:47:06 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201020164707.30402-3-laniel_francis@privacyrequired.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201020164707.30402-1-laniel_francis@privacyrequired.com>
From: Francis Laniel <laniel_francis@privacyrequired.com>
nla_strlcpy now returns -E2BIG if src was truncated when written to dst.
It also returns this error value if dstsize is 0 or higher than INT_MAX.
For example, if src is "foo\0" and dst is 3 bytes long, the result will be:
1. "foG" after memcpy (G means garbage).
2. "fo\0" after memset.
3. -E2BIG is returned because src was not completely written into dst.
The callers of nla_strlcpy were modified to take into account this modification.
