Subject: [PATCH wq/for-7.1-fixes] workqueue: Annotate alloc_workqueue_va() with __printf(1, 0)
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2026 09:42:37 -1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1c2dcad8cf8bd630d705b2d4fa14568b@kernel.org> (raw)
alloc_workqueue_va() forwards its va_list to __alloc_workqueue() which
ultimately feeds vsnprintf(). __alloc_workqueue() already carries
__printf(1, 0); the new wrapper needs the same annotation so format
string checking propagates through the forwarding.
Fixes: 0de4cb473aed ("workqueue: fix devm_alloc_workqueue() va_list misuse")
Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202604300347.2LgXyteh-lkp@intel.com/
