[PATCH] bcachefs: Avoid a potential useless over memory allocation in bch2_prt_vprintf()
From: Christophe JAILLET
Date: Sat Sep 16 2023 - 02:21:39 EST
printbuf_remaining() returns the number of characters we can print to the
output buffer - i.e. excluding the terminating null.
vsnprintf() takes the size of the buffer, including the trailing null
space.
It is truncated if the returned value is greater than or equal to the size
of the buffer.
Knowing all that, buffer sizes and overflow checks can be fixed in order
to potentially avoid a useless memory over-allocation.
