ARC: [lib] strchr breakage in Big-endian configuration
For a search buffer, 2 byte aligned, strchr() was returning pointer outside of buffer (buf - 1) ------------->8---------------- // Input buffer (default 4 byte aigned) char *buffer = "1AA_"; // actual search start (to mimick 2 byte alignment) char *current_line = &(buffer[2]); // Character to search for char c = 'A'; char *c_pos = strchr(current_line, c); printf("%s\n", c_pos) --> 'AA_' as oppose to 'A_' ------------->8---------------- Reported-by: Anton Kolesov <Anton.Kolesov@synopsys.com> Debugged-by: Anton Kolesov <Anton.Kolesov@synopsys.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # [3.9 and 3.10] Cc: Noam Camus <noamc@ezchip.com> Signed-off-by: Joern Rennecke <joern.rennecke@embecosm.com> Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
