UEFI 2.6 9.3.6.4 File Path Media Device Path says that Path Name is "A NULL-terminated Path string including directory and file names".
Strip final NULL from Path Name in each File Path node when constructing full path. To be on safe side, strip all of them. Fixes failure chainloading grub from grub, when loaded grub truncates image path and does not find its grub.cfg. https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1026344 This was triggered by commit ce95549cc54b5d6f494608a7c390dba3aab4fba7; before it we built Path Name without trailing NULL, and apparently all other bootloaders use single File Path node, thus not exposing this bug. --- @Vladimir, @Daniel - this fixes regression in rc1 and is real fix for the mentioned problem (previous patch only fixed the case of grub - grub chainloading, this patch should properly parse image path also when called from other EFI application). grub-core/kern/efi/efi.c | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/grub-core/kern/efi/efi.c b/grub-core/kern/efi/efi.c index caf9bcc..d467785 100644 --- a/grub-core/kern/efi/efi.c +++ b/grub-core/kern/efi/efi.c @@ -366,6 +366,9 @@ grub_efi_get_filename (grub_efi_device_path_t *dp0) len = ((GRUB_EFI_DEVICE_PATH_LENGTH (dp) - 4) / sizeof (grub_efi_char16_t)); fp = (grub_efi_file_path_device_path_t *) dp; + /* According to EFI spec Path Name is NULL terminated */ + while (len > 0 && fp->path_name[len - 1] == 0) + len--; p = (char *) grub_utf16_to_utf8 ((unsigned char *) p, fp->path_name, len); } -- tg: (2fb8cd2..) u/efi-strip-final-NULL-from-file-path (depends on: master) _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
