[PATCH 0/6] lib: string: add function strtolower()

[PATCH 0/6] lib: string: add function strtolower()

[Markus Mayer]

This series introduces a new generic function strtolower(), which
converts strings to lowercase in-place, overwriting the original
string. This kind of functionality is needed in several places in the
kernel. Right now, everybody seems to be implementing their own copy of
this function. So, we replace several custom "strtolower"
implementations with this new library function.

Another driver that also makes use of this function will be submitted
upstream shortly, which prompted this whole exercise.

The changes made here have been compile-tested, but not tried out, due
to lack of required hardware.

This series is based on v4.7-rc5.

[PATCH 1/6] lib: string: add function strtolower()

[Markus Mayer]

Add a function called strtolower() to convert strings to lower case
in-place, overwriting the original string.

This seems to be a recurring requirement in the kernel that is
currently being solved by several duplicated implementations doing the
same thing.

This needs a kernel-doc comment right here.

Using spaces for indentation? See scripts/checkpatch.pl.

Why does it return a value? Could be void?

It could be void, but I thought that would make the function's use
less flexible. As is, the return value is there if anybody wants it,
but it can be ignored if it is not needed. Also, it seems customary
for string functions to be returning the string that was passed in.

I'll change it to void if there are strong opinions leaning that way.
Personally, I like that it returns a char * better.

I don't have strong opinions on this. Just a general aversion to
returning something redundant. Avoids questions like, does it allocate a
new string, should I use the return value instead of the string I passed
in, should I check the return value or can I ignore it, should I check
both the string I pass in and the return value for != NULL, etc. But I
could be persuaded either way.

A few suggestions: 

- Make the function take separate src and dst parameters, making it explicitly
  allowed to pass the same value (but not other kinds of overlap, of
  course). That way one can avoid "strcpy(dst, src); strtolower(dst);".

- Drop the NULL check. If someone does "foo->bar = something;
  strtolower(foo->bar); put foo in a global data structure...", the
  dereference of foo->bar may happen much later. Doing the NULL deref
  sooner means it's much easier to find and fix the bug. (Also, other
  str* and mem* functions don't usually check for NULL).

- While it's true that strcpy and memcpy by definition return dst, that's
  mostly useless. If you want it to return anything, please make it
  something that might be used - for example, having stpcpy semantics
  (returning a pointer to dst's terminating \0) means a caller might avoid
  a strlen call.

- Maybe do strtoupper while you're at it. Quick grepping didn't find any
  use for the copy-while-lowercasing, but copy-while-uppercasing can at
  least be used in drivers/acpi/acpica/nsrepair2.c,
  drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/engine/fifo/gk104.c,
  drivers/power/power_supply_sysfs.c along with a bunch of inplace
  uppercasing.

Thanks for the suggestions to you and Jani. Based on the feedback I
received, I am reworking the series now and will post v2 probably
tomorrow.

Call strtolower() rather than walking the string explicitly to convert
it to lowercase.

This function doesn't seem to exist as of next-20160701, where have

I didn't find it. I wrote it, because it didn't exist and I needed it.
See: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/6/30/727 and
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/6/30/733 (cover letter and first patch in
series).

Ah, right - would have been easier to understand if you had sent the
whole series (or at least patches 0 to 2) to us as well. Please do
that for the next version.
