Subject: [PATCH v6 0/2] Fix compiler warnings/errors in SUNRPC and MACB
Date: Mon,  2 Mar 2026 00:17:07 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260301161709.1365975-1-seanwascoding@gmail.com> (raw)

This series addresses compiler warnings and a build error identified across 
different architectures and configurations.

The first patch refactors the dfprintk macros in the SUNRPC subsystem. This 
global fix silences unused variable warnings and, by incorporating 
no_printk(), ensures continued compiler type checking. It also includes 
a specific fix for a build error in nfsd (nfsfh.c) uncovered by syzbot 
in non-debug configurations.

The second patch fixes a format-truncation warning in the MACB ethernet
driver by ensuring the snprintf output fits within the destination buffer.

v6:
- Instead of wrapping dprintk in #if blocks, completely remove the 
  redundant RPC_IFDEBUG() macro and associated #if guards in nfsfh.c and 
  svc_rdma_transport.c.
- Remove the #if guard around the static helper nlmdbg_cookie2a() in 
  svclock.c.
- Verified via .lst and nm that both variables (buf) and helper functions 
  (nlmdbg_cookie2a) are fully optimized out by the compiler when 
  CONFIG_SUNRPC_DEBUG is disabled.

v5:
- Simplify dfprintk and dfprintk_rcu macros by removing the redundant 'fmt' 
  argument and calling no_printk(__VA_ARGS__) directly, as suggested by 
  David Laight.
- Fix a build error in fs/nfsd/nfsfh.c reported by syzbot. The error was 
  caused by a mismatch between the variable's lifecycle (defined via 
  RPC_IFDEBUG) and its usage in dprintk.
- Add Link tag to the syzbot build failure report.
- Update series title to reflect the general nature of the fixes.

v4:
- Refactor patch 1 to use no_printk() in sunrpc headers instead of marking
  variables as __maybe_unused. This provides a cleaner, global fix and
  enables compiler type checking.

v3:
- Expand commit descriptions to include technical details regarding macro
  expansion, as requested by Andrew Lunn.
- Test the different platform, such as ARM, ARM64, X86_64.

v2:
- Split the original treewide patch into subsystem-specific commits.
- Added more detailed commit descriptions to satisfy checkpatch.
