From 0f5a86b29fcc1c1f4e4be5d5899de52217ecd5be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ard Biesheuvel Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2026 10:10:03 +0200 Subject: lib/ucs2_string: Split out ucs2_as_utf8_l() taking a separate limit ucs2_as_utf8() takes a maxlength argument, which specifies how many bytes the function is permitted to store into the destination buffer. The same value is used as an upper bound for the ucs2_strnlen() invocation, which is reasonable in the general case, as each UCS-2 character produces at least one byte of UTF-8 output, and so there is never a need to process more than 'maxlength' UCS-2 characters. However, if the UCS-2 string is not NUL terminated, ucs2_strnlen() may read past the end of the buffer if 'maxlength' is set to a high value. Current callers pass UCS-2 strings that are expected to be NUL terminated, but for processing the load options in the EFI stub, a version is needed that takes a separate limit argument. So split that off from the current implementation.
