From: Laura Abbott Subject: [PATCHv2] scsi: ibmvscsis: Fix a stringop-overflow warning Date: Tue, 11 Sep 2018 11:05:42 -0700 Message-ID: <20180911180542.7778-1-labbott@redhat.com> Return-path: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org To: "Bryant G.

Petersen" , linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org, target-devel@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, Kees Cook , Prarit Bhargava List-Id: linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org There's currently a warning about string overflow with strncat: drivers/scsi/ibmvscsi_tgt/ibmvscsi_tgt.c: In function 'ibmvscsis_probe': drivers/scsi/ibmvscsi_tgt/ibmvscsi_tgt.c:3479:2: error: 'strncat' specified bound 64 equals destination size [-Werror=stringop-overflow=] strncat(vscsi->eye, vdev->name, MAX_EYE); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Switch to a single snprintf instead of a strcpy + strcat to handle this cleanly.
