[PATCH 2/3] use "sentinel" function attribute for variadic lists

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

 



This attribute can help gcc notice when callers forget to
add a NULL sentinel to the end of the function. This is our
first use of the sentinel attribute, but we shouldn't need
to #ifdef for other compilers, as __attribute__ is already a
no-op on non-gcc-compatible compilers.
