v2 cover RESEND - Update filename string sizes in block layer

[ Note, my prior email to qemu-devel bounced, because I mistyped an address.
Resending ]

The block layer uses a mixture of 'PATH_MAX' and '1024' string sizes for filenames (and backing filenames).

This series consolidates all that usage to 'PATH_MAX'. Since most platforms (especially the most common platforms for QEMU) have a PATH_MAX larger than 1024 bytes, this series also changes stack allocations of PATH_MAX to be dynamically allocated.

Note: checkpatch.pl complains about an extra space in a printf in
patches 1 & 2. The lines complained about are in the diff context and not the actual changes, so I did not fix them up to satisfy checkpatch.

Changes from v2:

- Change stack allocations to dybnamic (Thanks Kevin)
- Update qcow/qcow2 ti perform safety checks for platforms that have a PATH_MAX < 1024 (thanks John, Kevin).

Jeff Cody (6):
block: vmdk - make ret variable usage clear
block: vmdk - move string allocations from stack to the heap
block: qapi - move string allocation from stack to the heap
block: move string allocation from stack to the heap
block: mirror - change string allocation to 2-bytes
block: update string sizes for filename,backing_file,exact_filename

PATCH v2 1/6 block: vmdk - make ret variable usage clear

Keep the variable 'ret' something that is returned by the function it is defined in. For the return value of 'sscanf', use a more meaningful variable name.

Much better would be to change path_combine so it doesn't need to have the destination alloc done by the caller. Just have it allocate the right sized string buffer directly & return that and avoid the madness of PATH_MAX entirely.

backing_filename2 is only used inside the body of this if statement. Please move the declaration in here to avoid initializing with NULL (that value is never used but I had to check the surrounding code to figure that out).

Zombie alert!

This is a funny:

Since September 2012 in commit 0bce597d6ec34b2af802799eb53ebc863c704d05 ("block: convert bdrv_commit() to use bdrv_reopen()") the filename variable has not been used.

We continued to maintain this variable faithfully, for example, to fix a buffer overflow in commit c2cba3d9314f972dfaf724d0ec2d018eb54c95f1 ("block: avoid buffer overrun by using pstrcpy, not strncpy").

Please kill the zombie filename variable instead of switching to heap allocation :-).

Rather than allocate PATH_MAX bytes on the stack, use g_strndup() to dynamically allocate the string, and add an exit label for cleanup.

Zombie alert!

This is a funny:

Since September 2012 in commit 0bce597d6ec34b2af802799eb53ebc863c704d05 ("block: convert bdrv_commit() to use bdrv_reopen()") the filename variable has not been used.

Quoted 6 lines

We continued to maintain this variable faithfully, for example, to fix a buffer overflow in commit c2cba3d9314f972dfaf724d0ec2d018eb54c95f1 ("block: avoid buffer overrun by using pstrcpy, not strncpy").

Please kill the zombie filename variable instead of switching to heap allocation :-).

Ha! OK, will kill the zombie :)

PATCH v2 5/6 block: mirror - change string allocation to 2-bytes

In reply to Jeff Cody

The backing_filename string in mirror_run() is only used to check for a NULL string, so we don't need to allocate 1024 bytes (or, later, PATH_MAX bytes), when we only need to copy the first 2 characters.

We technically only need 1 byte, as we are just checking for NULL, but since backing_filename[] is populated by bdrv_get_backing_filename(), a string size of 1 will always only return '\0';

PATCH v2 6/6 block: update string sizes for filename, backing_file, exact_filename

In reply to Jeff Cody

The string field entries 'filename', 'backing_file', and 'exact_filename' in the BlockDriverState struct are defined as 1024 bytes.

However, many places that use these values accept a maximum of PATH_MAX bytes, so we have a mixture of 1024 byte and PATH_MAX byte allocations. This patch makes the BlockDriverStruct field string sizes match usage.

This patch also does a few fixes related to the size that needs to happen now:

* the block qapi driver is updated to use PATH_MAX bytes
* the qcow and qcow2 drivers have an additional safety check
* the block vvfat driver is updated to use PATH_MAX bytes for the size of backing_file, for systems where PATH_MAX is < 1024 bytes.
* qemu-img uses PATH_MAX rather than 1024. These instances were not changed to be dynamically allocated, however, as the extra temporary 3K in stack usage for qemu-img does not seem worrisome.
