[PATCH v3 5/5] fortify: Improve buffer overflow reporting

From: Kees Cook
Date: Fri Feb 16 2024 - 23:54:29 EST


Improve the reporting of buffer overflows under CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE to
help accelerate debugging efforts. The calculations are all just sitting
in registers anyway, so pass them along to the function to be reported.

For example, before:

detected buffer overflow in memcpy

and after:

memcpy: detected buffer overflow: 4096 byte read of buffer size 1
