Subject: [PATCH] fix ASSERT and ASSERT_ALWAYS
Date: Sat, 14 Jul 2007 18:04:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070714160418.GA7768@lst.de> (raw)
- remove the != 0 inside the unlikely in ASSERT_ALWAYS because sparse now
complains about comparisms between pointers and 0
- add a standalone ASSERT implementation because defining it to
ASSERT_ALWAYS means the string is expanded before the #token passing
stringification. This way we get the actual content of the
assertatio in the assfail message and don't overflow sparse's
strinification buffer leading to sparse error messages.
