[PATCH] netfilter: fix stringop-overflow warning with UBSAN
From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Mon Jul 31 2017 - 06:09:57 EST
Using gcc-7 with UBSAN enabled, we get this false-positive warning:
net/netfilter/ipset/ip_set_core.c: In function 'ip_set_sockfn_get':
net/netfilter/ipset/ip_set_core.c:1998:3: error: 'strncpy' writing 32 bytes into a region of size 2 overflows the destination [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
strncpy(req_get->set.name, set ? set->name : "",
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
sizeof(req_get->set.name));
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This seems completely bogus, and I could not find a nice workaround.
To work around it in a less elegant way, I change the ?: operator
into an if()/else() construct.
