The netloop and poll TCP echo examples receive up to IOBUFFER_SIZE bytes and then append a NUL terminator before logging the data. A full-size receive can therefore write one byte past the input buffer. Reserve one extra byte in the buffers that are terminated after recv(). Keep the receive limit and echo length capped at IOBUFFER_SIZE so the data path is unchanged. Signed-off-by: Old-Ding <ai.neo.ae86@gmail.com>
