[PATCH] libmultipath: remove FREE_CONST() again

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The FREE_CONST macro is of questionable value, as reviewers have pointed
out. The users of this macro were mostly functions that called
uevent_get_dm_xyz(). But these functions don't need to return const char*,
as they allocate the strings they return. So my change of the prototype
was wrong. This patch reverts it. The few other users of FREE_CONST can
also be reverted to use char* instead of const char* with negligible risk.

Fixes: "libmultipath: fix compiler warnings for -Wcast-qual"
Fixes: "libmultipath: const qualifier for wwid and alias"

(Note: this reverts changes not committed upstream. But as these changes are
deeply in the middle of my large-ish series of patches, it's probably easier
to simply add this patch on top than to rebase the whole series).
