From cc91542ac8f29d8446ef59234796b95f0fbce09a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Biggers Date: Fri, 30 Sep 2016 01:44:17 -0400 Subject: ext4: do not unnecessarily null-terminate encrypted symlink data Null-terminating the fscrypt_symlink_data on read is unnecessary because it is not string data --- it contains binary ciphertext.
