| H A D | base.c | d26d0cd9 Sat Jul 13 16:27:14 CDT 2019 Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> /proc/<pid>/cmdline: add back the setproctitle() special case
This makes the setproctitle() special case very explicit indeed, and
handles it with a separate helper function entirely. In the process, it
re-instates the original semantics of simply stopping at the first NUL
character when the original last NUL character is no longer there.
[ The original semantics can still be seen in mm/util.c: get_cmdline()
that is limited to a fixed-size buffer ]
This makes the logic about when we use the string lengths etc much more
obvious, and makes it easier to see what we do and what the two very
different cases are.
Note that even when we allow walking past the end of the argument array
(because the setproctitle() might have overwritten and overflowed the
original argv[] strings), we only allow it when it overflows into the
environment region if it is immediately adjacent.
[ Fixed for missing 'count' checks noted by Alexey Izbyshev ]
