Subject: [PATCH] PowerPC:PSeries: strncpy need limit destnation length
Date: Tue, 26 Feb 2013 10:51:49 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <512C2345.6000405@asianux.com> (raw)


  the dest buf len is 80 (HVCS_CLC_LENGTH + 1).
  the src buf len is PAGE_SIZE.
  if src buf string len is more than 80, it will cause issue.
