[PATCH] ata: libata-transport: replace scnprintf with sysfs_emit for simple attributes
From: Jonathan Velez
Date: Mon Jul 07 2025 - 08:31:43 EST
sprintf, snprintf, and scnprintf do not consider the PAGE_SIZE maximum
of the temporary buffer used for outputting sysfs content and they may
overrun the PAGE_SIZE buffer length.
To avoid output defects with the ATA transport class simple attributes,
scnprintf() was converted to sysfs_emit(). This aligns with the sysfs
guidance provided in Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.rst.
