Subject: [PATCH] net: phy: smsc: fix buffer overflow in memcpy
Date: Tue, 20 Jun 2017 22:40:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170620204059.790066-1-arnd@arndb.de> (raw)

The memcpy annotation triggers for a fixed-length buffer copy:

In file included from /git/arm-soc/arch/arm64/include/asm/processor.h:30:0,
                 from /git/arm-soc/arch/arm64/include/asm/spinlock.h:21,
                 from /git/arm-soc/include/linux/spinlock.h:87,

                 from /git/arm-soc/include/linux/stat.h:21,
                 from /git/arm-soc/include/linux/module.h:10,
                 from /git/arm-soc/drivers/net/phy/smsc.c:20:
In function 'memcpy',
    inlined from 'smsc_get_strings' at /git/arm-soc/drivers/net/phy/smsc.c:166:3:
/git/arm-soc/include/linux/string.h:309:4: error: call to '__read_overflow2' declared with attribute error: detected read beyond size of object passed as 2nd parameter

Using strncpy instead of memcpy should do the right thing here.
