Subject: [PATCH v3 next 06/17] tools/nolibc/printf: Change variables 'c' to 'ch' and 'tmpbuf[]' to 'outbuf[]'
Date: Mon, 23 Feb 2026 10:17:24 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260223101735.2922-7-david.laight.linux@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260223101735.2922-1-david.laight.linux@gmail.com>

From: David Laight <david.laight.linux@gmail.com>

Changing 'c' makes the code slightly easier to read because the variable
stands out from the single character literals (especially 'c').

Change tmpbuf[] to outbuf[] because 'out' points into it.

The following patches pretty much rewrite the function so the
churn is limited.

Changes for v3:
- Patch 1 in v2.
- Rename tmpbuf[] to outbuf[] as well.
