[PATCH 4.15 069/163] selftests/x86: Clean up and document sscanf() usage

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

 



4.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dominik Brodowski <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit d8e92de8ef952bed88c56c7a44c02d8dcae0984e upstream.

Replace a couple of magically connected buffer length literal constants with
a common definition that makes their relationship obvious. Also document
why our sscanf() usage is safe.

No intended functional changes.
