[patch] scsi: silence an overflow warning

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

 



Static checkers complain that these sprintf() calls can overflow one
character.  It's clear that the original author just forget to account
for the NUL character.

It is unlikely that we will have a billion SCSI hosts.  Even if we do,
when you consider alignment, then the overflow is going to happen in
padding and thus the overflow is not harmful.  But it costs us nothing
to fix this and it silences a static checker warning.
