[PATCH v5 0/2] lib/string_helpers.c: fix infinite loop in string_get_size()

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov
Date: Thu Sep 17 2015 - 05:44:13 EST


This patch series prevents string_get_size() from entering an infinite loop
on some inputs and adds several basic tests for string_get_size() including
one to test for the issue.

Changes since v4:
- Signle quotes in pr_warn() to see empty strings [Andy Shevchenko].
- Check for test validity compile-time [Rasmus Villemoes, Andy Shevchenko].
- All __test_string_get_size() arguments are const.

Vitaly Kuznetsov (2):
lib/string_helpers.c: fix infinite loop in string_get_size()
lib/test-string_helpers.c: add string_get_size() tests
