But I can send a patch for removing that warning. How about the other warning we get when we turn off the first one? I just found out. I think that could be turned off as well, either for some particular places or for the whole build: util/virtime.c: In function 'virTimeStringThenRaw': util/virtime.c:215:9: error: '%02d' directive output may be truncated writing between 2 and 11 bytes into a region of size between 5 and 21 [-Werror=format-truncation=] if (snprintf(buf, VIR_TIME_STRING_BUFLEN, ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "%4d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d.%03d+0000", ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ fields.tm_year, fields.tm_mon, fields.tm_mday, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ fields.tm_hour, fields.tm_min, fields.tm_sec, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (int) (when % 1000)) >= VIR_TIME_STRING_BUFLEN) { ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ util/virtime.c:215:9: note: using the range [-2147483648, 2147483647] for directive argument In file included from /usr/include/stdio.h:936:0, from ../gnulib/lib/stdio.h:43, from util/virtime.c:36: /usr/include/bits/stdio2.h:64:10: note: '__builtin___snprintf_chk' output between 29 and 89 bytes into a destination of size 29 return __builtin___snprintf_chk (__s, __n, __USE_FORTIFY_LEVEL - 1, ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ __bos (__s), __fmt, __va_arg_pack ()); ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
