Subject: [PATCH v2] thermal: Use symbolic constant for UUID prefix comparison
Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2025 09:29:55 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251030035955.62171-1-kaushlendra.kumar@intel.com> (raw)
Replace sizeof() with a symbolic constant for UUID matching to maintain
existing ABI behavior while improving code clarity. The current behavior
of comparing only the first 7 characters is sufficient to distinguish
all UUIDs and changing to full string comparison would alter the kernel
ABI, potentially breaking existing userspace applications.
Use a defined constant to make the truncated comparison explicit and
maintainable.
Signed-off-by: Kaushlendra Kumar <kaushlendra.kumar@intel.com>

Changes in v2:
- Use symbolic constant instead of strlen() to maintain existing ABI
behavior as review feedback
