[PATCH 04/15] logmsg_reencode: return const buffer

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

 



The return value from logmsg_reencode may be either a newly
allocated buffer or a pointer to the existing commit->buffer.
We would not want the caller to accidentally free() or
modify the latter, so let's mark it as const.  We can cast
away the constness in logmsg_free, but only once we have
determined that it is a free-able buffer.
