I know you've ACK'ed this patch already, but I was wondering if you'd be
open to change these encode/decode interfaces so that they could be used
for non-url base64 too.
My motivation is that ceph has this odd limitation where snapshot names
can not start with the '_' character. And I've an RFC that adds snapshot
names encryption support which, unfortunately, can end up starting with
this char after base64 encoding.
So, my current proposal is to use a different encoding table. I was
thinking about the IMAP mailboxes naming which uses '+' and ',' instead of
the '-' and '_', but any other charset would be OK (except those that
include '/' of course). So, instead of adding yet another base64
implementation to the kernel, I was wondering if you'd be OK accepting a
patch to add an optional arg to these encoding/decoding functions to pass
an alternative table. Or, if you'd prefer, keep the existing interface
but turning these functions into wrappers to more generic functions.
Obviously, Jeff, please feel free to comment too if you have any reserves
regarding this approach.
Cheers,
