The buffer allocated in ti_adpll_clk_get_name doesn't account for the terminating null. This patch switches to ka_sprintf to avoid overflowing.

- char *buf; - - buf = devm_kzalloc(d->dev, 8 + 1 + strlen(base_name) + 1 + - strlen(postfix), GFP_KERNEL); - if (!buf) - return NULL; - sprintf(buf, "%08lx.%s.%s", d->pa, base_name, postfix); - name = buf; + name = devm_kasprintf(d->dev, GFP_KERNEL, "%08lx.%s.%s",So why not make this "%08lx.adpll.%s"?
Thanks for the review! I hesitated to do this because I thought the purely formatting string "%08lx.%s.%s" made the resulting code easier to understand than a combined "%08lx.adpll.%s". I’ll follow up with a v3 which merges the "adpll" string into the format string. Regards, Stephen
