Subject: sscanf(): fix %*s%n
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8fccae2c95506270f74ee8429c273b0924e89c83;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

sscanf(): fix %*s%n

When using %*s, sscanf should honor conversion specifiers immediately
following the %*s.  For example, the following code should find the
position of the end of the string "hello".

  int end;
  char buf[] = "hello    world";
  sscanf(buf, "%*s%n", &end);
  printf("%d\n", end);

Ideally, sscanf would advance the fmt and str pointers the same as it
would without the *, but the code for that is rather complicated and is
not included in the patch.
