Subject: [PATCH v2 next 11/11] selftests/nolibc: Use printf("%.*s", n, "") to align output
Date: Fri, 6 Feb 2026 19:11:21 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260206191121.3602-12-david.laight.linux@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260206191121.3602-1-david.laight.linux@gmail.com>
From: David Laight <david.laight.linux@gmail.com>
Now that printf supports '*' for field widths it can be used to
align the "[OK]" strings in the output.
