From 3db7cf55d532a15ea26b4a14e8f8729ccd96fd22 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dima Stepanov Date: Mon, 19 Apr 2021 09:37:21 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] block/rnbd-clt-sysfs: Remove copy buffer overlap in rnbd_clt_get_path_name cppcheck report the following error: rnbd/rnbd-clt-sysfs.c:522:36: error: The variable 'buf' is used both as a parameter and as destination in snprintf(). The origin and destination buffers overlap. Quote from glibc (C-library) documentation (http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_mono/libc.html#Formatted-Output-Functions): "If copying takes place between objects that overlap as a result of a call to sprintf() or snprintf(), the results are undefined." [sprintfOverlappingData] Fix it by initializing the buf variable in the first snprintf call.
