[RFC PATCH 3/4] selftests/binderfs: Macro argument 'fd' may be better as '(fd)' to avoid precedence issues

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

 



Change the macro argument 'fd' to '(fd)' to avoid potential precedence
issues. Without parentheses, the macro expansion could lead to
unexpected behavior when used with an expression having different
precedence levels.

Example Code:

    #define CALC_SQR_BAD(x) (x*x)
    #define CALC_SQR_GOOD(x) ((x)*(x))

CALC_SQR_BAD(2+3) expands to 2+(3*3)+2, giving 11 as the incorrect
answer. Enclosing with parathesis CALC_SQR_GOOD(2+3) sets the correct
order of precedence and expands to (2+3)*(2+3), giving 25 as the
correct answer.
