While working on a Coccinelle script to find more cases of this, I
noticed that this code is buggy: it keeps overwriting the same
position in the buf string: "buf + size" and don't take "ret" into
account at all. This needs to be:
ret += scnprintf(buf + size + ret, MOD_BUF - size - ret,
Thanks for the sighting. Indeed this looks like a bug, all other calls
to snprintf use "ret" to modify the destination/length.
The only explanation I have for it not being noticed earlier is that
it's possibly not used - a 5mn test on 2 machines show the loop is
actually not run (max_pin == 0).
It'll take me a bit of time to figure out what exactly this routine is
supposed to do, maybe we should do the cross-tree change first?
