[PATCH v3 2/4 v2] stdlib: Use fixed buffer size for realpath [BZ #26241]
Adhemerval Zanella
adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org
Thu Sep 10 15:19:13 GMT 2020
Changes from previous version [1]:
- I have abandoned the scratch_buffer usage, the PATH_MAX stack usage
is acceptable and it avoid the potentially malloc usage.
[1] https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2020-August/117078.html
---
It uses both a fixed internal buffer with PATH_MAX size to read and
copy the results of the readlink call.
Also, if PATH_MAX is not defined it uses a default value of 1024
as for other stdlib implementations.
The expected stack usage is about 8k on Linux where PATH_MAX is
define as 4096 (plus some internal function usage for local
variable).
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
