I think the code size is relatively small and not particularly valuable for the additional complexity. For instance, all of the code that emits MAC and IP[46] addresses %pM and %pI variants is 2.5K. (x86 allnoconfig) There are lots more code size savings than that lying about. And auditing all the code that might emit a MAC address when CONFIG_NET is not set is probably not worth the effort for the size reduction. $ size lib/vsprintf.o* text data bss dec hex filename 12140 4 0 12144 2f70 lib/vsprintf.o.allnoconfig.new 14785 4 0 14789 39c5 lib/vsprintf.o.allnoconfig.old --- lib/vsprintf.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/lib/vsprintf.c b/lib/vsprintf.c index 86c3385b9eb3..de95e78ca5f0 100644 --- a/lib/vsprintf.c +++ b/lib/vsprintf.c @@ -933,6 +933,7 @@ char *bitmap_list_string(char *buf, char *end, unsigned long *bitmap, return buf; } +#ifdef CONFIG_NET static noinline_for_stack char *mac_address_string(char *buf, char *end, u8 *addr, struct printf_spec spec, const char *fmt) @@ -1241,6 +1242,7 @@ char *ip4_addr_string_sa(char *buf, char *end, const struct sockaddr_in *sa, return string(buf, end, ip4_addr, spec); } +#endif static noinline_for_stack char *escaped_string(char *buf, char *end, u8 *addr, struct printf_spec spec, @@ -1741,6 +1743,7 @@ char *pointer(const char *fmt, char *buf, char *end, void *ptr, default: return bitmap_string(buf, end, ptr, spec, fmt); } +#ifdef CONFIG_NET case 'M': /* Colon separated: 00:01:02:03:04:05 */ case 'm': /* Contiguous: 000102030405 */ /* [mM]F (FDDI) */ @@ -1777,6 +1780,7 @@ char *pointer(const char *fmt, char *buf, char *end, void *ptr, }} } break; +#endif case 'E': return escaped_string(buf, end, ptr, spec, fmt); case 'U':
