[Bug 1089722] Re: wcslen reads beyond the end of the buffer

[Phillip Susi]

It sounds like it's not going to cross a page boundary then, so it safe,
in which case, it's a false positive and valgrind should be configured
to ignore it.

Title:
  wcslen reads beyond the end of the buffer

Status in “valgrind” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  valgrind reports many errors of wcslen reading beyond the end of the
  buffer.  It appears that sysdeps/x86_64/wcslen.S tries do do 64 bit
  reads which can result in reading beyond the end of the buffer if
  there are less than 64 bits left.
