Roger Pau Monné suggested making xenbus_scanf() stricter instead of
using a custom parser. Christoph Hellwig asked why the normal vsscanf()
cannot be made stricter. Richard Weinberger mentioned Linus Torvalds’s
suggestion of using ! to allow overflow.
Changes since v2:
- Better commit messages.
- Fix a compile error in simple_strtoll() (found by 0day bot).
- Fix an uninitialized variable (found by Dan Carpenter).
Changes since v1:
- Better commit messages.
- Use ! to explicitly opt-in to allowing overflow.
- Treat overflow as a conversion failure instead of returning ERANGE.
- Drop the first patch (removal of simple_strtoll()) as it breaks
bcache.
- Stop skipping spaces in vsscanf() instead of adding a separate
vsscanf_strict() function.
Demi Marie Obenour (4):
limits.h: add UCHAR_MAX, SCHAR_MAX, and SCHAR_MIN
vsscanf(): Integer overflow is a conversion failure
vsscanf(): do not skip spaces
Reject NUL bytes in xenstore nodes
