commit 6e636f297f12a52ce12db11ea0787dd541937ed6 Author: Marek Marczykowski-Górecki <marmarek@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Thu Apr 5 03:50:50 2018 +0200 Commit: Ian Jackson <ian.jackson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Wed Jun 10 11:52:02 2020 +0100 tools/misc: fix hypothetical buffer overflow in xen-lowmemd gcc-8 complains: xen-lowmemd.c: In function 'handle_low_mem': xen-lowmemd.c:80:55: error: '%s' directive output may be truncated writing up to 511 bytes into a region of size 489 [-Werror=format-truncation=] snprintf(error, BUFSZ,"Failed to write target %s to xenstore", data); ^~ ~~~~ xen-lowmemd.c:80:9: note: 'snprintf' output between 36 and 547 bytes into a destination of size 512 snprintf(error, BUFSZ,"Failed to write target %s to xenstore", data); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In practice it wouldn't happen, because 'data' contains string representation of 64-bit unsigned number (20 characters at most). But place a limit to mute gcc warning.
