From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> A convenient way to pad strings is to use something like `strbuf_addf(&buf, "%20s", "Hello, world!")`. However, the Coccinelle rule that forbids a format `"%s"` with a constant string argument cast too wide a net, and also forbade such padding. The original rule was introduced by commit: 28c23cd4c39 (strbuf.cocci: suggest strbuf_addbuf() to add one strbuf to an other, 2019-01-25) Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Teng Long <dyroneteng@xxxxxxxxx> --- contrib/coccinelle/strbuf.cocci | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/contrib/coccinelle/strbuf.cocci b/contrib/coccinelle/strbuf.cocci index d9ada69b43..0970d98ad7 100644 --- a/contrib/coccinelle/strbuf.cocci +++ b/contrib/coccinelle/strbuf.cocci @@ -15,7 +15,7 @@ constant fmt !~ "%"; @@ expression E; struct strbuf SB; -format F =~ "s"; +format F =~ "^s$"; @@ - strbuf_addf(E, "%@F@", SB.buf); + strbuf_addbuf(E, &SB); @@ -23,7 +23,7 @@ format F =~ "s"; @@ expression E; struct strbuf *SBP; -format F =~ "s"; +format F =~ "^s$"; @@ - strbuf_addf(E, "%@F@", SBP->buf); + strbuf_addbuf(E, SBP); @@ -44,7 +44,7 @@ struct strbuf *SBP; @@ expression E1, E2; -format F =~ "s"; +format F =~ "^s$"; @@ - strbuf_addf(E1, "%@F@", E2); + strbuf_addstr(E1, E2); -- 2.34.1.402.gef0f5bd184
