Subject: [PATCH] powercap: Replace sprintf() with sysfs_emit() in sysfs show functions
Date: Sun, 11 Jan 2026 19:42:36 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260111141237.12340-1-sumeet4linux@gmail.com> (raw)
Replace all sprintf() calls with sysfs_emit() in sysfs show functions.
sysfs_emit() is preferred over sprintf() for formatting sysfs output
as it provides better bounds checking and prevents potential buffer
overflows.
Also, replace sprintf() with sysfs_emit() in show_constraint_name()
and simplify the code by removing the redundant strlen() call since
sysfs_emit() returns the length.
