Subject: [PATCH v3] net: ethernet: emulex: benet: fix adapter->fw_on_flash truncation warning
Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2025 23:45:41 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251024181541.5532-1-spyjetfayed@gmail.com> (raw)
The benet driver copies both fw_ver (32 bytes) and fw_on_flash (32 bytes)
into ethtool_drvinfo->fw_version (32 bytes), leading to a potential
string truncation warning when built with W=1.
Store fw_on_flash in ethtool_drvinfo->erom_version instead, which some
drivers use to report secondary firmware information.
