[PATCH v2 1/2] axis-fifo: use devm_kasprintf() for allocating formatted strings

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

 



In various places, string buffers of a fixed size are allocated, and
filled using snprintf() with the same fixed size, which is error-prone.

Replace this by calling devm_kasprintf() instead, which always uses the
appropriate size.
