Subject: [PATCH v4 next 22/23] tools/nolibc/printf: Add support for octal output
Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2026 10:18:14 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260302101815.3043-23-david.laight.linux@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260302101815.3043-1-david.laight.linux@gmail.com>
From: David Laight <david.laight.linux@gmail.com>
Octal output isn't often used, but adding it costs very little.
Supporting "%#o" is mildly annoying, it has to add a leading '0' if
there isn't one present. In simple cases this is the same as adding a sign
of '0' - but that adds an extra '0' in a few places.
So you need 3 tests, %o, # and no leading '0' (which can only be checked
after the zero pad for precision).
If all the test are deferred until after zero padding then too many values
are 'live' across the call to _nolibc_u64toa_base() and get spilled to stack.
Hence the check that ignores the 'sign' if it is the same as the first
character of the output string.
Add tests for octal output.

v4:
- Increase VFPRINTF_LEN to 25 to that 64bit octal output isn't truncated.
Change truncation tests to match.
(Was done earlier in v3.)
New patch for v3.
Relies on the changes to u64toa_r() etc in stdlib.h (patch 2).
