[PATCH 3.18 054/105] partitions/aix: append null character to print data from disk

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 24 2018 - 07:39:49 EST


3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mauricio Faria de Oliveira <mfo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit d43fdae7bac2def8c4314b5a49822cb7f08a45f1 ]

Even if properly initialized, the lvname array (i.e., strings)
is read from disk, and might contain corrupt data (e.g., lack
the null terminating character for strings).

So, make sure the partition name string used in pr_warn() has
the null terminating character.

Fixes: 6ceea22bbbc8 ("partitions: add aix lvm partition support files")
