Subject: [PATCH v3 3/3] lib/string_helpers.c: Change semantics of string_escape_mem
The current semantics of string_escape_mem are inadequate for one of
its current users, vsnprintf(). If that is to honour its contract, it
must know how much space would be needed for the entire escaped
buffer, and string_escape_mem provides no way of obtaining that (short
of allocating a large enough buffer (~4 times input string) to let it
play with, and that's definitely a big no-no inside vsnprintf).
So change the semantics for string_escape_mem to be more
snprintf-like: Return the size of the output that would be generated
if the destination buffer was big enough, but of course still only
write to the part of dst it is allowed to, and don't do
'\0'-termination. It is then up to the caller to detect whether output
was truncated and to append a '\0' if desired. Also, we must output
partial escape sequences, otherwise a call such as snprintf(buf, 3,
"%1pE", "\123") would cause printf to write a \0 to buf[2] but leaving
buf[0] and buf[1] with whatever they previously contained.
This also fixes a bug in the escaped_string() helper function, which
used to unconditionally pass a length of "end-buf" to
string_escape_mem(); since the latter doesn't check osz for being
insanely large, it would happily write to dst. For example,
kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "something and then %pE", ...); is an easy way
to trigger an oops.
In test-string_helpers.c, I removed the now meaningless -ENOMEM test,
and replaced it with testing for getting the expected return value
even if the buffer is too small. Also ensure that nothing is written
when osz == 0.
In net/sunrpc/cache.c, I think qword_add still has the same
semantics. Someone should definitely double-check this.
