[PATCH 1/6] scsi: fc_encode: work around strncpy size warnings

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



struct fc_fdmi_attr_entry contains a variable-length string at
the end, which is encoded as a one-byte array.  gcc-8 notices that
we copy strings into it that obviously go beyond that one byte:

In function 'fc_ct_ms_fill',
    inlined from 'fc_elsct_send' at include/scsi/fc_encode.h:518:8:
include/scsi/fc_encode.h:275:3: error: 'strncpy' writing 64 bytes into a region of size 1 overflows the destination [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
   strncpy((char *)&entry->value,
   ^
include/scsi/fc_encode.h:287:3: error: 'strncpy' writing 64 bytes into a region of size 1 overflows the destination [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
   strncpy((char *)&entry->value,
   ^

No idea what the right fix is.
