Subject: Build fail in drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_tc.c
Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2023 22:55:38 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4df68c74c4da46ac943ac21578e9b084@AcuMS.aculab.com> (raw)

I'm seeing a build fail at line 1878 of intel_tc.c

gcc is being a bit over-enthusiastic about snprintf() formats
and reports that "%c/TC#%d", xxx, tc_port + 1 might not fit
in the 8 bytes available.
'tc_port' is an enum with values -1 to 5.
I guess it is either allowing for the full 'int' value of
the enum.
Changing to '(tc_port & 7) + 1' stops the compiler bleating.

The code isn't new, so I guess the compiler flags have changed?

It might depend on the gcc version as well.
I'm using gcc 7.5.0 from Ubuntu 18.04.

	David
