From: Josh Law <[email protected]> snprintf() returns the number of characters that would have been written excluding the NUL terminator. Output is truncated when the return value is >= the buffer size, not just > the buffer size.
When ret == size, the current code takes the non-truncated path, advancing buf by ret and reducing size to 0. This is wrong because the output was actually truncated (the last character was replaced by NUL). Fix by using >= so the truncation path is taken correctly.
