The patch spi: spidev_test: Improve decoded text part of hex dump has been applied to the spi tree at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From 35386dfd13b746daf36a393bdf066dbe9b9b7aed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 3 Sep 2018 19:33:23 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] spi: spidev_test: Improve decoded text part of hex dump - Print spaces as spaces, - Do not print characters > 126, as they will be shown as garbage in the modern UTF-8 era, - Use a normal period instead of its hexadecimal ASCII value, - Delimit the text part with pipe symbols on both sides (was left side only), without any spaces, to make it clear where the decoded text starts and ends, - Drop a useless comment.
