Subject: [PATCH] kernel/params.c: use scnprintf() instead of sprintf()
Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2013 11:17:04 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5212DFB0.8070902@asianux.com> (raw)

For some strings (e.g. version string), they are permitted to be larger
than PAGE_SIZE (although meaningless), so recommend to use scnprintf()
instead of sprintf().
