Hi! The attached patch replaces sprintf with snprintf and strncpy with strlcpy. There are various cases where no NULL-terminated strings are guaranteed and eventual possible overflows. This patch fixes them. BTW: Since Xen kernel has its own string functions, can't we just remove sprintf() and strncpy()? IMO, Xen should not inherit the historical C relicts. Christoph
