I've removed the dead code in this patch. - 'end' is calculated as end = &expect[0][sizeof(expect[0] - 1)]; However, the '-1' doesn't seem to be necessary. When passing $2 to scnprintf(), the size was specified as 'end - cur'. And scnprintf() --just like snprintf(3)--, won't write more than $2 bytes (including the null byte). That means that scnprintf() wouldn't write more than &expect[0][sizeof(expect[0]) - 1] - expect[0] which simplifies to sizeof(expect[0]) - 1 bytes. But we have sizeof(expect[0]) bytes available, so we're wasting one byte entirely. This is a benign off-by-one bug. The two occurrences of this bug will be fixed in a following patch in this series. mm/kmsan/kmsan_test.c: The same benign off-by-one bug calculating the remaining size. mm/mempolicy.c: This file uses the 'p += snprintf()' anti-pattern. That will overflow the pointer on truncation, which has undefined behavior. Using seprintf(), this bug is fixed. As in the previous file, here there was also dead code in the last scnprintf() call, by incrementing a pointer that is not used after the call. I've removed the dead code. mm/page_owner.c: Within print_page_owner(), there are some calls to scnprintf(), which do report truncation. And then there are other calls to snprintf(), where we handle errors (there are two 'goto err'). I've kept the existing error handling, as I trust it's there for a good reason (i.e., we may want to avoid calling print_page_owner_memcg() if we truncated before). Please review if this amount of error handling is the right one, or if we want to add or remove some. For seprintf(), a single test for null after the last call is enough to detect truncation. mm/slub.c: Again, the 'p += snprintf()' anti-pattern. This is UB, and by using seprintf() we've fixed the bug.
