    [PATCH] sys_hpux: fix strlen_user() race · 1fcbf053
    Kyle McMartin 提交于
    Userspace can alter the string after the kernel has run strlen_user().
    
    Also: the strlen_user() return value includes the \0, so fix that.
    
    Also: handle EFAULT from strlen_user().
    
    It's unlikely anyone is using this code.  Very, very unlikely.  If I
    remember correctly, CONFIG_HPUX turns this code on, but one would actually
    need CONFIG_BINFMT_SOM to load a binary that could cause a problem, and
    BINFMT_SOM has had an #error in it for quite some time.
