Ah yes, I see now... you fixed up the compile problem but did so
incorrectly.
int load_options_size = image->load_options_size / 2; /* ASCII */
This is a number of UTF-16 chars, the comment is completely wrong;
- while (*s2 && *s2 != '\n' && options_size <
load_options_size) {
+ while (*s2 && *s2 != '\n' && options_bytes <
load_options_size) {
+ options_bytes += efi_utf8_bytes(*s2);
s2++;
- options_size++;
}
+ options_chars = s2 - options;
You can't compare options_bytes against load_options_size; the latter
being a UTF-16 shortword count.
So the loop really needs to update options_chars in the loop to compare
it against load_options_size:
while (*s2 && *s2 != '\n' && options_chars < load_options_size) {
options_bytes += efi_utf8_bytes(*s2++);
option_chars++;
}
