[Qemu-devel] [BUG] 216 Alerts reported by LGTM for QEMU (some might be release critical)

[Stefan Weil]

Hi,

LGTM reports 16 errors, 81 warnings and 119 recommendations: 
https://lgtm.com/projects/g/qemu/qemu/alerts/?mode=list.

Some of them are already know (wrong format strings), others look like 
real errors:

- several multiplication results which don't work as they should in 
contrib/vhost-user-gpu, block/* (m->nb_clusters * s->cluster_size only 
32 bit!),  target/i386/translate.c and other files

- potential buffer overflows in gdbstub.c and other files

I am afraid that the overflows in the block code are release critical, 
maybe that in target/i386/translate.c and other errors, too.

About half of the alerts are issues which can be fixed later.

Regards

Stefan
