Subject: [PATCH 11/11] perf tools: Use scnprintf() in build_id__snprintf() and hwmon read_events()
Date: Sun,  7 Jun 2026 20:29:24 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260607232925.1935819-12-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260607232925.1935819-1-acme@kernel.org>

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

build_id__snprintf() and hwmon_pmu__read_events() accumulate formatted
output via snprintf(), which returns the would-have-been-written count
on truncation.  In build_id__snprintf(), this inflates the return
value beyond the buffer size.  In hwmon_pmu__read_events(), len
overshoots out_buf_len and the next 'out_buf_len - len' underflows.

Switch both to scnprintf() which returns actual bytes written.

Fixes: fccaaf6fbbc59910 ("perf build-id: Change sprintf functions to snprintf")
Fixes: 53cc0b351ec99278 ("perf hwmon_pmu: Add a tool PMU exposing events from hwmon in sysfs")
