gcc warns that the 12 byte fw_version field might not be long enough to contain the generated firmware name string: drivers/scsi/myrb.c: In function 'myrb_get_hba_config': drivers/scsi/myrb.c:1052:38: error: '%02d' directive writing between 2 and 3 bytes into a region of size between 2 and 5 [-Werror=format-overflow=] sprintf(cb->fw_version, "%d.%02d-%c-%02d", ^~~~ drivers/scsi/myrb.c:1052:26: note: directive argument in the range [0, 255] sprintf(cb->fw_version, "%d.%02d-%c-%02d", ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ drivers/scsi/myrb.c:1052:2: note: 'sprintf' output between 10 and 14 bytes into a destination of size 12 sprintf(cb->fw_version, "%d.%02d-%c-%02d", ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ enquiry2->fw.major_version, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ enquiry2->fw.minor_version, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ enquiry2->fw.firmware_type, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ enquiry2->fw.turn_id); ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have not checked whether there are appropriate range checks before the sprintf, but there is a range check after it that will bail out in case of out of range version numbers. This means we can simply use snprintf() instead of sprintf() to limit the output buffer size, and it will work correctly.
