lib/vsprintf.c: add %pa format specifier for phys_addr_t types

2013-02-22T01:22:20Z

Add the %pa format specifier for printing a phys_addr_t type and its derivative types (such as resource_size_t), since the physical address size on some platforms can vary based on build options, regardless of the native integer type.

Update the documentation for simple_strto* to reflect that it has been obsoleted and advise the usage of kstrto*. Signed-off-by: Eldad Zack Cc: J. Bruce Fields Cc: Joe Perches Cc: Randy Dunlap Cc: Alexey Dobriyan Cc: Rob Landley Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

sscanf: don't ignore field widths for numeric conversions

2012-12-18T01:15:18Z

This is another step towards better standard conformance. Rather than adding a local buffer to store the specified portion of the string (with the need to enforce an arbitrary maximum supported width to limit the buffer size), do a maximum width conversion and then drop as much of it as is necessary to meet the caller's request. Also fail on negative field widths. Uses the deprecated simple_strto*() functions because kstrtoXX() fail on non-zero terminated strings.

lib/vsprintf.c: fix handling of %zd when using ssize_t

2012-12-18T01:15:13Z

Documentation/printk-formats.txt says to use %zd for a ssize_t argument and some drivers do. Unfortunately this prints a positive number for negative values eg: tpm_tis 70030000.tpm_tis: tpm_transmit: tpm_send: error 4294967234 Add a case to va_args a ssize_t type if the interpretation should be signed. Tested on PPC32. Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

lib/vsprintf.c: improve standard conformance of sscanf()

2012-10-05T18:04:58Z

Xen's pciback points out a couple of deficiencies with vsscanf()'s standard conformance: - Trailing character matching cannot be checked by the caller: With a format string of "(%x:%x.%x) %n" absence of the closing parenthesis cannot be checked, as input of "(00:00.0)" doesn't cause the %n to be evaluated (because of the code not skipping white space before the trailing %n). - The parameter corresponding to a trailing %n could get filled even if there was a matching error: With a format string of "(%x:%x.%x)%n", input of "(00:00.0]" would still fill the respective variable pointed to (and hence again make the mismatch non-detectable by the caller). This patch aims at fixing those, but leaves other non-conforming aspects of it untouched, among them these possibly relevant ones: - improper handling of the assignment suppression character '*' (blindly discarding all succeeding non-white space from the format and input strings), - not honoring conversion specifiers for %n, - not recognizing the C99 conversion specifier 't' (recognized by vsprintf()).

lib: vsprintf: optimize put_dec_trunc8()

2012-10-05T18:04:49Z

If you're going to have a conditional branch after each 32x32->64-bit multiply, might as well shrink the code and make it a loop. This also avoids using the long multiply for small integers. (This leaves the comments in a confusing state, but that's a separate patch to make review easier.)
