[PATCH 4.9 02/50] s390: fix strrchr() implementation

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Oct 25 2021 - 15:21:19 EST


From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8e0ab8e26b72a80e991c66a8abc16e6c856abe3d upstream.

Fix two problems found in the strrchr() implementation for s390
architectures: evaluate empty strings (return the string address instead of
NULL, if '\0' is passed as second argument); evaluate the first character
of non-empty strings (the current implementation stops at the second).

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
