[PATCH net-next v4 0/3] ethtool: Add ethtool_puts()

[PATCH net-next v4 0/3] ethtool: Add ethtool_puts()

[Justin Stitt]

Hi,

This series aims to implement ethtool_puts() and send out a wave 1 of
conversions from ethtool_sprintf(). There's also a checkpatch patch
included to check for the cases listed below.

This was sparked from recent discussion here [1]

The conversions are used in cases where ethtool_sprintf() was being used
with just two arguments:
|       ethtool_sprintf(&data, buffer[i].name);
or when it's used with format string: "%s"
|       ethtool_sprintf(&data, "%s", buffer[i].name);
which both now become:
|       ethtool_puts(&data, buffer[i].name);

The first case commonly triggers a -Wformat-security warning with Clang
due to potential problems with format flags present in the strings [3].

The second is just a bit weird with a plain-ol' "%s".

Changes found with Cocci [4] and grep [5].

[PATCH net-next v4 1/3] ethtool: Implement ethtool_puts()

[Justin Stitt]

Use strscpy() to implement ethtool_puts().

Functionally the same as ethtool_sprintf() when it's used with two
arguments or with just "%s" format specifier.

A minor nit...

Sorry to jump in a bit late in this, but... concerning the use of "puts"
the userspace stdio version adds a trailing newline. Thus, to avoid any
confusion, I think the kerneldoc for this should explicitly state that
this does not add a newline.

 * Write string to *data without a trailing newline. Update *data to
 * point at the start of the next string.

This shouldn't be an issue, but it makes the behaviour of it plainly
obvious to the reader.

[PATCH net-next v4 2/3] checkpatch: add ethtool_sprintf rules

[Justin Stitt]

Add some warnings for using ethtool_sprintf() where a simple
ethtool_puts() would suffice.

The two cases are:

1) Use ethtool_sprintf() with just two arguments:
|       ethtool_sprintf(&data, driver[i].name);
or
2) Use ethtool_sprintf() with a standalone "%s" fmt string:
|       ethtool_sprintf(&data, "%s", driver[i].name);

The former may cause -Wformat-security warnings while the latter is just
not preferred. Both are safely in the category of warnings, not errors.

[PATCH net-next v4 3/3] net: Convert some ethtool_sprintf() to ethtool_puts()

[Justin Stitt]

This patch converts some basic cases of ethtool_sprintf() to
ethtool_puts().

The conversions are used in cases where ethtool_sprintf() was being used
with just two arguments:
|       ethtool_sprintf(&data, buffer[i].name);
or when it's used with format string: "%s"
|       ethtool_sprintf(&data, "%s", buffer[i].name);
which both now become:
|       ethtool_puts(&data, buffer[i].name);
