Since we leave the function with a strdup() call, we could just pass an adjusted start pointer to strdup() without the need to move things before. I sent a patch "lsmmc: rework string trimming" which follows this approach. (Yes, sorry, I did not checked the ML before - so I didn't noticed your patches... ) Regards Michael > > > > In file included from /usr/include/string.h:494, > > > > from lsmmc.c:46: > > In function ‘strncpy’, > > > > inlined from ‘read_file’ at lsmmc.c:356:3: > > /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/string_fortified.h:106:10: error: > > ‘__builtin_strncpy’ accessing 4096 bytes at offsets 0 and 1 overlaps 4095 > > bytes at offset 1 [-Werror=restrict]> > > return __builtin___strncpy_chk (__dest, __src, __len, __bos (__dest)); > > > > ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > > > cc1: all warnings being treated as errors > > make: *** [Makefile:36: lsmmc.o] Error 1 > > > > Signed-off-by: Clément Péron <peron.clem@xxxxxxxxx> > > --- > > > > v2: > > repost with Chris Ball > > > > lsmmc.c | 2 +- > > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) > > > > diff --git a/lsmmc.c b/lsmmc.c > > index c4faa00..bcb854d 100644 > > --- a/lsmmc.c > > +++ b/lsmmc.c > > @@ -353,7 +353,7 @@ char *read_file(char *name) > > > > line[strlen(line) - 1] = '\0'; > > > > while (isspace(line[0])) > > > > - strncpy(&line[0], &line[1], sizeof(line)); > > + memmove(&line[0], &line[1], sizeof(line)-1); > > > > return strdup(line); > > > > } > > > > -- > > 2.19.1
