40 character paths work OK for device nodes in /dev but not for device nodes created in a chroot, LXC container, etc.

Update the sscanf limit and bring the code in sync with the Buildroot version: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=8876b6751e0bc19a3754290061808f0f8420708e Signed-off-by: Andre McCurdy <armccu...@gmail.com> --- meta/recipes-devtools/makedevs/makedevs/makedevs.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/meta/recipes-devtools/makedevs/makedevs/makedevs.c b/meta/recipes-devtools/makedevs/makedevs/makedevs.c index 7471f3f..cba7681 100644 --- a/meta/recipes-devtools/makedevs/makedevs/makedevs.c +++ b/meta/recipes-devtools/makedevs/makedevs/makedevs.c @@ -360,7 +360,7 @@ static int interpret_table_entry(char *line) unsigned long mode = 0755, uid = 0, gid = 0, major = 0, minor = 0; unsigned long start = 0, increment = 1, count = 0; - if (0 > sscanf(line, "%40s %c %lo %40s %40s %lu %lu %lu %lu %lu", path, + if (0 > sscanf(line, "%4095s %c %lo %40s %40s %lu %lu %lu %lu %lu", path, &type, &mode, usr_buf, grp_buf, &major, &minor, &start, &increment, &count)) { -- 1.9.1 -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
