Subject: [PATCH 0/3] printk: add macros to simplify handling struct va_format
Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2025 12:35:48 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251126-va_format_call-v1-0-8a604a331730@intel.com> (raw)
This patchset contains patch abstracting out most common bits of va_format uses
into small macro. The macro works as a forwarder of variadic args to va_format
call.
Rough estimates based on dirty cocci script suggests about 180-230 users
could be converted, allowing to remove about 1100-1300 lines of code.
Of course, I do not plan to do it in mass. I just provide two patches to
show the usage and potential.
