As Christophe JAILLET suggested [1] In create_unique_id(), "looks that ID_STR_LENGTH could even be reduced to 32 or 16. The 2nd BUG_ON at the end of the function could certainly be just removed as well or remplaced by a: if (p > name + ID_STR_LENGTH - 1) { kfree(name); return -E<something>; } " According to above suggestion, let's do below cleanups: 1. reduce ID_STR_LENGTH to 32, as the buffer size should be enough; 2. use WARN_ON instead of BUG_ON() and return error if check condition is true; 3. use snprintf instead of sprintf to avoid overflow.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
