[PATCH] printk: Convert a use of sprintf to snprintf in console_unlock
From: Nathan Chancellor
Date: Thu Jan 30 2020 - 17:17:07 EST
When CONFIG_PRINTK is disabled (e.g. when building allnoconfig), clang
warns:
../kernel/printk/printk.c:2416:10: warning: 'sprintf' will always
overflow; destination buffer has size 0, but format string expands to at
least 33 [-Wfortify-source]
len = sprintf(text,
^
1 warning generated.
It is not wrong; text has a zero size when CONFIG_PRINTK is disabled
because LOG_LINE_MAX and PREFIX_MAX are both zero. Change to snprintf so
that this case is explicitly handled without any risk of overflow.
