2015-09-10lib/string_helpers: rename "esc" arg to "only"Kees Cook
To further clarify the purpose of the "esc" argument, rename it to "only" to reflect that it is a limit, not a list of additional characters to escape.

The esc argument is used to reduce which characters will be escaped. For example, using " " with ESCAPE_SPACE will not produce any escaped spaces.

2015-04-15lib/string_helpers.c: change semantics of string_escape_memRasmus Villemoes
The current semantics of string_escape_mem are inadequate for one of its current users, vsnprintf(). If that is to honour its contract, it must know how much space would be needed for the entire escaped buffer, and string_escape_mem provides no way of obtaining that (short of allocating a large enough buffer (~4 times input string) to let it play with, and that's definitely a big no-no inside vsnprintf). So change the semantics for string_escape_mem to be more snprintf-like: Return the size of the output that would be generated if the destination buffer was big enough, but of course still only write to the part of dst it is allowed to, and (contrary to snprintf) don't do '\0'-termination. It is then up to the caller to detect whether output was truncated and to append a '\0' if desired. Also, we must output partial escape sequences, otherwise a call such as snprintf(buf, 3, "%1pE", "\123") would cause printf to write a \0 to buf[2] but leaving buf[0] and buf[1] with whatever they previously contained. This also fixes a bug in the escaped_string() helper function, which used to unconditionally pass a length of "end-buf" to string_escape_mem(); since the latter doesn't check osz for being insanely large, it would happily write to dst. For example, kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "something and then %pE", ...); is an easy way to trigger an oops. In test-string_helpers.c, the -ENOMEM test is replaced with testing for getting the expected return value even if the buffer is too small. We also ensure that nothing is written (by relying on a NULL pointer deref) if the output size is 0 by passing NULL - this has to work for kasprintf("%pE") to work. In net/sunrpc/cache.c, I think qword_add still has the same semantics. Someone should definitely double-check this. In fs/proc/array.c, I made the minimum possible change, but longer-term it should stop poking around in seq_file internals.

2015-04-15lib/string_helpers.c: refactor string_escape_memRasmus Villemoes
When printf is given the format specifier %pE, it needs a way of obtaining the total output size that would be generated if the buffer was large enough, and string_escape_mem doesn't easily provide that. This is a refactorization of string_escape_mem in preparation of changing its external API to provide that information. The somewhat ugly early returns and subsequent seemingly redundant conditionals are to make the following patch touch as little as possible in string_helpers.c while still preserving the current behaviour of never outputting partial escape sequences. That behaviour must also change for %pE to work as one expects from every other printf specifier.

2015-04-10sd, mmc, virtio_blk, string_helpers: fix block size unitsJames Bottomley
The current string_get_size() overflows when the device size goes over 2^64 bytes because the string helper routine computes the suffix from the size in bytes. However, the entirety of Linux thinks in terms of blocks, not bytes, so this will artificially induce an overflow on very large devices. Fix this by making the function string_get_size() take blocks and the block size instead of bytes. This should allow us to keep working until the current SCSI standard overflows. Also fix virtio_blk and mmc (both of which were also artificially multiplying by the block size to pass a byte side to string_get_size()). The mathematics of this is pretty simple: we're taking a product of size in blocks (S) and block size (B) and trying to re-express this in exponential form: S*B = R*N^E (where N, the exponent is either 1000 or 1024) and R < N. Mathematically, S = RS*N^ES and B=RB*N^EB, so if RS*RB < N it's easy to see that S*B = RS*RB*N^(ES+EB). However, if RS*BS > N, we can see that this can be re-expressed as RS*BS = R*N (where R = RS*BS/N < N) so the whole exponent becomes R*N^(ES+EB+1) [jejb: fix incorrect 32 bit do_div spotted by kbuild test robot <fengguang.wu@intel.com>] Acked-by: Ulf Hansson <ulf.hansson@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <JBottomley@Odin.com>

2015-02-13lib/string_helpers.c:string_get_size(): use 32 bit arithmetic when possibleRasmus Villemoes
The remainder from do_div is always a u32, and after size has been reduced to be below 1000 (or 1024), it certainly fits in u32. So both remainder and sf_cap can be made u32s, the format specifiers can be simplified (%lld wasn't the right thing to use for _unsigned_ long long anyway), and we can replace a do_div with an ordinary 32/32 bit division.

2015-02-13lib/string_helpers.c:string_get_size(): remove redundant prefixesRasmus Villemoes
While commit 3c9f3681d0b4 ("[SCSI] lib: add generic helper to print sizes rounded to the correct SI range") says that Z and Y are included in preparation for 128 bit computers, they just waste .text currently. If and when we get u128, string_get_size needs updating anyway (and ISO needs to come up with four more prefixes). Also there's no need to include and test for the NULL sentinel; once we reach "E" size is at most 18.

2014-10-14lib / string_helpers: move documentation to c-fileAndy Shevchenko
The introduced function string_escape_mem() is a kind of opposite to string_unescape. We have several users of such functionality each of them created custom implementation. The series contains clean up of test suite, adding new call, and switching few users to use it via %*pE specifier. Test suite covers all of existing and most of potential use cases. This patch (of 11): The documentation of API belongs to c-file. This patch moves it accordingly. There is no functional change.

2008-10-23[SCSI] lib: string_get_size(): don't hang on zero; no decimals on exactH. Peter Anvin
We would hang forever when passing a zero to string_get_size(). Furthermore, string_get_size() would produce decimals on a value small enough to be exact. Finally, a few formatting issues are inconsistent with standard SI style guidelines. - If the value is less than the divisor, skip the entire rounding step. This prints out all small values including zero as integers, without decimals. - Add a space between the value and the symbol for the unit, consistent with standard SI practice. - Lower case k in kB since we are talking about powers of 10. - Finally, change "int" to "unsigned int" in one place to shut up a gcc warning when compiling the code out-of-kernel for testing.
