The hv_fcopy_uio_daemon fails to correctly handle file copy requests
from Windows hosts (e.g. via Copy-VMFile) due to wchar_t size
differences between Windows and Linux. On Linux, wchar_t is 32 bit,
whereas Windows uses 16 bit wide characters.
Currently, the code casts __u16 arrays directly to wchar_t* and
uses wcstombs(), which leads to corrupted file paths or even crashes.
This patch changes:
Please use imperative mood to write commit msg. Avoid using "This patch
does xyz".
- Treats file name and path as __u16 arrays, not wchar_t*.
- Allocates fixed-size buffers (W_MAX_PATH) for converted strings
instead of using malloc.
- Adds a check for target path length to prevent snprintf() buffer
overflow.
This change ensures file transfers from host to Linux guest succeed
with correctly decoded file names and paths.
Ditto.
