<br />
igb: Fix string truncation warnings in igb_set_fw_version<br />
<br />
Commit 1978d3ead82c ("intel: fix string truncation warnings")<br />
fixes &#39;-Wformat-truncation=&#39; warnings in igb_main.c by using kasprintf.<br />
<br />
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_main.c:3092:53: warning:‘%d’ directive output may be truncated writing between 1 and 5 bytes into a region of size between 1 and 13 [-Wformat-truncation=]<br />
3092 | "%d.%d, 0x%08x, %d.%d.%d",<br />
| ^~<br />
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_main.c:3092:34: note:directive argument in the range [0, 65535]<br />
3092 | "%d.%d, 0x%08x, %d.%d.%d",<br />
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br />
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_main.c:3092:34: note:directive argument in the range [0, 65535]<br />
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb_main.c:3090:25: note:‘snprintf’ output between 23 and 43 bytes into a destination of size 32<br />
<br />
kasprintf() returns a pointer to dynamically allocated memory<br />
which can be NULL upon failure.<br />
<br />
Fix this warning by using a larger space for adapter->fw_version,<br />
and then fall back and continue to use snprintf.
