There is no need to use temporary strings to construct the kcontrol names, devm_kasprintf can be used to replace the snprintf + devm_kstrdup pairs. This change will also fixes the following compiler warning/error (W=1): sound/soc/codecs/hdac_hdmi.c: In function ‘hdac_hdmi_jack_port_init’: sound/soc/codecs/hdac_hdmi.c:1793:63: error: ‘ Switch’ directive output may be truncated writing 7 bytes into a region of size between 1 and 32 [-Werror=format-truncation=] 1793 | snprintf(kc_name, sizeof(kc_name), "%s Switch", xname); | ^~~~~~~ In function ‘create_fill_jack_kcontrols’, inlined from ‘hdac_hdmi_jack_port_init’ at sound/soc/codecs/hdac_hdmi.c:1871:8: sound/soc/codecs/hdac_hdmi.c:1793:25: note: ‘snprintf’ output between 8 and 39 bytes into a destination of size 32 1793 | snprintf(kc_name, sizeof(kc_name), "%s Switch", xname); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors The warnings got brought to light by a recent patch upstream: commit 6d4ab2e97dcf ("extrawarn: enable format and stringop overflow warnings in W=1") Signed-off-by: Peter Ujfalusi <peter.ujfalusi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- sound/soc/codecs/hdac_hdmi.c | 13 ++++++------- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/sound/soc/codecs/hdac_hdmi.c b/sound/soc/codecs/hdac_hdmi.c index 8b6b76029694..b9c5ffbfb5ba 100644 --- a/sound/soc/codecs/hdac_hdmi.c +++ b/sound/soc/codecs/hdac_hdmi.c @@ -1771,7 +1771,6 @@ static int create_fill_jack_kcontrols(struct snd_soc_card *card, { struct hdac_hdmi_pin *pin; struct snd_kcontrol_new *kc; - char kc_name[NAME_SIZE], xname[NAME_SIZE]; char *name; int i = 0, j; struct hdac_hdmi_priv *hdmi = hdev_to_hdmi_priv(hdev); @@ -1785,14 +1784,14 @@ static int create_fill_jack_kcontrols(struct snd_soc_card *card, list_for_each_entry(pin, &hdmi->pin_list, head) { for (j = 0; j < pin->num_ports; j++) { - snprintf(xname, sizeof(xname), "hif%d-%d Jack", - pin->nid, pin->ports[j].id); - name = devm_kstrdup(component->dev, xname, GFP_KERNEL); + name = devm_kasprintf(component->dev, GFP_KERNEL, + "hif%d-%d Jack", + pin->nid, pin->ports[j].id); if (!name) return -ENOMEM; - snprintf(kc_name, sizeof(kc_name), "%s Switch", xname); - kc[i].name = devm_kstrdup(component->dev, kc_name, - GFP_KERNEL); + + kc[i].name = devm_kasprintf(component->dev, GFP_KERNEL, + "%s Switch", name); if (!kc[i].name) return -ENOMEM; -- 2.42.0
