Hello Greg,

Can you please consider including the following patch in the stable linux-4.14.y branch? This is to fix a possible sprintf buffer overflow

46c2797826cc ("tools/power turbostat: fix possible sprintf buffer overflow")

I'll queue it up, but really, can't you just use the latest userspace tool on older kernels here?

thanks,
