From: Su Yanjun <suyj.f...@cn.fujitsu.com> When using gcc8 compiles utils.c, it complains as below:
utils.c:852:45: warning: '%s' directive output may be truncated writing up to 4095 bytes into a region of size 4084 [-Wformat-truncation=] snprintf(path, sizeof(path), "/dev/mapper/%s", name); ^~ ~~~~ In file included from /usr/include/stdio.h:873, from utils.c:20: /usr/include/bits/stdio2.h:67:10: note: '__builtin___snprintf_chk' output between 13 and 4108 bytes into a destination of size 4096 return __builtin___snprintf_chk (__s, __n, __USE_FORTIFY_LEVEL - 1, ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ __bos (__s), __fmt, __va_arg_pack ()); ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This isn't a type of warning we care about, particularly when PATH_MAX is much less than either. Using the GCC option -Wno-format-truncation to disable this for default build.
