[PATCH] [v2] hinic: avoid gcc -Wrestrict warning
From: Arnd Bergmann With extra warnings enabled, gcc complains that snprintf should not take the same buffer as source and destination: drivers/net/ethernet/huawei/hinic/hinic_ethtool.c: In function 'hinic_set_settings_to_hw': drivers/net/ethernet/huawei/hinic/hinic_ethtool.c:480:9: error: 'snprintf' argument 4 overlaps destination object 'set_link_str' [-Werror=restrict] 480 | err = snprintf(set_link_str, SET_LINK_STR_MAX_LEN, | ^~~~ 481 | "%sspeed %d ", set_link_str, speed); | ~~~ drivers/net/ethernet/huawei/hinic/hinic_ethtool.c:464:7: note: destination object referenced by 'restrict'-qualified argument 1 was declared here 464 | char set_link_str[SET_LINK_STR_MAX_LEN] = {0}; Rewrite this to avoid the nested sprintf and instead use separate buffers, which is simpler.

It's just a printk() message that might be truncated, and now that the format string only has a %d specifier, it can actually be verified statically that overflow will never happen (though I don't know or think gcc can do that, perhaps there's some locale nonsense in the standard that allows using utf16-encoded sanskrit runes). So probably that test should just be dropped, but that's a separate thing. Reviewed-by: Rasmus Villemoes

I thought about fixing it, but this seemed to be a rabbit hole I didn't want to get into, as there are other harmless issues in the driver that could be improved. I'm fairly sure gcc can indeed warn about the overflow with -Wformat-truncation, but the warning is disabled at the moment because it has a ton of false positives: kernel/workqueue.c: In function 'create_worker': kernel/workqueue.c:1933:55: error: '%d' directive output may be truncated writing between 1 and 10 bytes into a region of size between 3 and 13 [-Werror=format-truncation=] 1933 | snprintf(id_buf, sizeof(id_buf), "u%d:%d", pool->id, id); Arnd
