The function efx_iterate_state contains the code memcpy(&payload->msg, payload_msg, sizeof(payload_msg)); This is the only use of payload_msg. The type of payload_msg is changed from a pointer to an array, so that the result of sizeof really is the length of the string. A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression *x; expression f; type T; @@ *f(...,(T)x,...) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: David S.
