From: Stephen Hemminger <step...@networkplumber.org> The strncatf macro will cause warnings with latest GCC if the sizeof the destination buffer is smaller than the temporary buffer.
Resolve by adjusting buffer sizes. Such as: git/pktgen-dpdk/app/pktgen-capture.c: In function ‘pktgen_set_capture’: git/pktgen-dpdk/app/pktgen-log.h:114:3: error: ‘strncat’ output may be truncated copying between 0 and 255 bytes from a string of length 1022 [-Werror=stringop-truncation] strncat(dest, _buff, sizeof(dest) - strlen(dest) - 1); \ ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ git/pktgen-dpdk/app/pktgen-capture.c:246:7: note: in expansion of macro ‘strncatf’ strncatf(status, "%d%%", pct); ^~~~~~~~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <step...@networkplumber.org> --- app/pktgen-capture.c | 2 +- app/pktgen-log.h | 10 +++++----- 2 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/app/pktgen-capture.c b/app/pktgen-capture.c index aee4ff9bd650..0f3f42bdc488 100644 --- a/app/pktgen-capture.c +++ b/app/pktgen-capture.c @@ -200,7 +200,7 @@ found_rx_lid: size_t mem_dumped = 0; unsigned int pct = 0; - char status[256]; + char status[1024]; sprintf( status, "\r Dumping ~%.2fMB of captured data to disk: 0%%", diff --git a/app/pktgen-log.h b/app/pktgen-log.h index 46e347b72b3f..8d132d88c748 100644 --- a/app/pktgen-log.h +++ b/app/pktgen-log.h @@ -108,11 +108,11 @@ extern "C" { * arguments.
