Message-Id: <20231129035726.6273-1-angquan21@gmail.com> Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2023 21:57:26 -0600 From: angquan yu <angquan21@...il.com> To: skhan@...uxfoundation.org Cc: shuah@...nel.org, linux-kselftest@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel-mentees@...ts.linuxfoundation.org, angquan yu <angquan21@...il.com> Subject: [PATCH] selftests:breakpoints: Fix Format String Warning in breakpoint_test From: angquan yu <angquan21@...il.com> This commit resolves a compiler warning regardingthe use of non-literal format strings in breakpoint_test.c. The functions `ksft_test_result_pass` and `ksft_test_result_fail` were previously called with a variable `msg` directly, which could potentially lead to format string vulnerabilities. Changes made: - Modified the calls to `ksft_test_result_pass` and `ksft_test_result_fail` by adding a "%s" format specifier. This explicitly declares `msg` as a string argument, adhering to safer coding practices and resolving the compiler warning. This change does not affect the functional behavior of the code but ensures better code safety and compliance with recommended C programming standards. The previous warning is "breakpoint_test.c:287:17: warning: format not a string literal and no format arguments [-Wformat-security] 287 | ksft_test_result_pass(msg); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ breakpoint_test.c:289:17: warning: format not a string literal and no format arguments [-Wformat-security] 289 | ksft_test_result_fail(msg); | " Signed-off-by: angquan yu <angquan21@...il.com> --- tools/testing/selftests/breakpoints/breakpoint_test.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/breakpoints/breakpoint_test.c b/tools/testing/selftests/breakpoints/breakpoint_test.c index 3266cc929..d46962a24 100644 --- a/tools/testing/selftests/breakpoints/breakpoint_test.c +++ b/tools/testing/selftests/breakpoints/breakpoint_test.c @@ -284,9 +284,9 @@ static void check_success(const char *msg) nr_tests++; if (ret) - ksft_test_result_pass(msg); + ksft_test_result_pass("%s", msg); else - ksft_test_result_fail(msg); + ksft_test_result_fail("%s", msg); } static void launch_instruction_breakpoints(char *buf, int local, int global) -- 2.39.2
