The Coverity checker spotted the following in drivers/net/niu.c:
<-- snip -->
...
static int __devinit niu_pci_probe_sprom(struct niu *np)
{
...
val = nr64(ESPC_MOD_STR_LEN);
niudbg(PROBE, "SPROM: MOD_STR_LEN[%llu]\n",
(unsigned long long) val);
if (val > 8 * 4)
return -EINVAL;
for (i = 0; i < val; i += 4) {
u64 tmp = nr64(ESPC_NCR(5 + (i / 4)));
np->vpd.model[i + 3] = (tmp >> 0) & 0xff;
np->vpd.model[i + 2] = (tmp >> 8) & 0xff;
np->vpd.model[i + 1] = (tmp >> 16) & 0xff;
np->vpd.model[i + 0] = (tmp >> 24) & 0xff;
}
np->vpd.model[val] = '\0';
val = nr64(ESPC_BD_MOD_STR_LEN);
niudbg(PROBE, "SPROM: BD_MOD_STR_LEN[%llu]\n",
(unsigned long long) val);
if (val > 4 * 4)
return -EINVAL;
for (i = 0; i < val; i += 4) {
u64 tmp = nr64(ESPC_NCR(14 + (i / 4)));
np->vpd.board_model[i + 3] = (tmp >> 0) & 0xff;
np->vpd.board_model[i + 2] = (tmp >> 8) & 0xff;
np->vpd.board_model[i + 1] = (tmp >> 16) & 0xff;
np->vpd.board_model[i + 0] = (tmp >> 24) & 0xff;
}
np->vpd.board_model[val] = '\0';
...
<-- snip -->
Check where the '\0's get written if "val" has the maximum non-EINVAL
value.

"Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out
of the darkness. There had been need of rain for many days.
"Only a promise," Lao Er said.
