The usage of the helper function is nicely strightforward.
Also I like a lot all the comments with the [] brackets
that highlight what each check or search is for.
But I think that there is a lot of duplicated code in
the check_ and in the get_ functions. Also there is
a lot of strdup/free games.
The length of the elemets is limited by definition.
The functions are called under klp_mutex.
Therefore it might be easier to maintain a two parse
function that would fill static buffers and return
error in case of wrong value.
I mean something like:
static char mod_name[MODULE_NAME_LEN + 1];
static char symbol_name[KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN + 1];
static int
klp_parse_symbol_format(struct module *pmod, Elf_Sym *sym,
char *mod_name, char *symbol_name,
int *sympos)
{
char *substr;
/*
* Livepatch symbol names must follow this format:
* .klp.sym.objname.symbol_name,sympos
*/
s = pmod->strtab + sym->st_name;
/* [.klp.sym.]objname.symbol_name,sympos */
if (!s || strncmp(s, KLP_SYM_PREFIX, KLP_SYM_PREFIX_LEN))
return -EINVAL;
/* .klp.sym.[objname].symbol_name,sympos */
substr = s + KLP_SYM_PREFIX_LEN;
len = strcspn(substr, ".");
if (!len || len > MODULE_NAME_LEN)
return -EINVAL;
strncpy(mod_name, substr, len);
mod_name[len] = '\0';
/* .klp.sym.objname.[symbol_name],sympos */
substr = substr + len + 1;
len = strcspn(substr, ",");
if (!len || len > KSYM_SYMBOL_LEN)
return -EINVAL;
strncpy(symbol_name, substr, len);
mod_name[len] = '\0';
/* .klp.sym.objname.symbol_name,[sympos] */
substr = substr + len + 1;
len = strlen(substr);
if (!len)
return -EINVAL;
return kstrtol(substr, 10, sympos);
}
How does that sound, please?

Petr
