From e31efe50b5cce46a2ee68c96db445e0a3d481aa8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthias Brugger Date: Tue, 6 Apr 2021 11:04:35 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] smbios: Fix table when no string is present When no string is present in a table, next_ptr points to the same location as eos. When calculating the string table length, we would only reserve one \0. By spec a SMBIOS table has to end with two \0\0 when no strings a present.
