Richard Fitzgerald 9e914f59cc lib: vsprintf: Fix handling of number field widths in vsscanf
[ Upstream commit 900fdc4573766dd43b847b4f54bd4a1ee2bc7360 ]

The existing code attempted to handle numbers by doing a strto[u]l(),
ignoring the field width, and then repeatedly dividing to extract the
field out of the full converted value. If the string contains a run of
valid digits longer than will fit in a long or long long, this would
overflow and no amount of dividing can recover the correct value.

This patch fixes vsscanf() to obey number field widths when parsing
the number.

A new _parse_integer_limit() is added that takes a limit for the number
of characters to parse. The number field conversion in vsscanf is changed
to use this new function.

If a number starts with a radix prefix, the field width  must be long
enough for at last one digit after the prefix. If not, it will be handled
like this:

 sscanf("0x4", "%1i", &i): i=0, scanning continues with the 'x'
 sscanf("0x4", "%2i", &i): i=0, scanning continues with the '4'

This is consistent with the observed behaviour of userland sscanf.

Note that this patch does NOT fix the problem of a single field value
overflowing the target type. So for example:

  sscanf("123456789abcdef", "%x", &i);

Will not produce the correct result because the value obviously overflows
INT_MAX. But sscanf will report a successful conversion.

Note that where a very large number is used to mean "unlimited", the value
INT_MAX is used for consistency with the behaviour of vsnprintf().
