[PATCH 0/1] lib/vsprintf: Fixes size check

[Masami Hiramatsu (Google)]

Hi,

Here is a pair of patches to fix vsnprintf().

 - Fix to limit the size of width and precision.
 - Warn if the return size is over INT_MAX.

Recently we discussed snprintf() usage in bootconfig and found snprintf()
design has a problem[1]. It returns the required or printed size in 'int'
but the maxlen is passed by 'size_t'. The maxlen is already limited by
INT_MAX, but if the expected print size becomes bigger than INT_MAX,
it can return negative value. We also found width and precision size check
does not work.

Thank you,
