With `sizeof(string) - 1` strncpy() will null terminate the string. Signed-off-by: Roel Kluin <roel.kl...@gmail.com> --- To test this:
#include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> char a[10]; char b[10]; int main() { const char* str = "0123456789012"; strncpy(a, str, sizeof(a)); strncpy(b, str, sizeof(b) - 1); printf("String a was %s, b was %s\n", a, b); return 0; } Output: String a was 0123456789012345678, b was 012345678 diff --git a/arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/celleb_setup.c b/arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/celleb_setup.c index 07c234f..cfdbadb 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/celleb_setup.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/celleb_setup.c @@ -80,7 +80,7 @@ static void celleb_show_cpuinfo(struct seq_file *m) static int __init celleb_machine_type_hack(char *ptr) { - strncpy(celleb_machine_type, ptr, sizeof(celleb_machine_type)); + strncpy(celleb_machine_type, ptr, sizeof(celleb_machine_type) - 1); celleb_machine_type[sizeof(celleb_machine_type)-1] = 0; return 0; } _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
