Subject: [PATCH v1 0/4] initramfs: get rid of custom hex2bin()
Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2026 21:38:37 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260119204151.1447503-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> (raw)
The series that introduced simple_strntoul() had passed into kernel
without proper review and hence reinvented a wheel that's not needed.
Here is the refactoring to show that. This is assumed to go via PRINTK
tree.
I have tested this on x86, but I believe the same result will be
on big-endian CPUs (I deduced that from how strtox() works).
Andy Shevchenko (4):
initramfs: Sort headers alphabetically
initramfs: Refactor to use hex2bin() instead of custom approach
vsprintf: Revert "add simple_strntoul"
kstrtox: Drop extern keyword in the simple_strtox() declarations
