It's not safe (using a pointer to since-released stack space), though in practice it's going to be fine. Defining it as an inline function with a static buffer would at least avoid that, though it means it's not reentrant either. I would personally prefer doing it that way though. /* NB: returns pointer to buffer reused on each call */ static inline char * xfs_buf_target_name(struct xfs_buftarg *target) { static char __b[BDEVNAME_SIZE]; return bdevname(target->bt_bdev, __b); } Anyway, you didn't change this, but you're touching the code that uses it. So unless others object I would like to see this changed along with the rest of what you do here (which is all good, by the way).
