Subject: [PATCH v4 09/11] powerpc/papr_scm: Return the string length from the sysfs show functions
Date: Fri,  2 Oct 2026 20:59:14 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261003035921.1918874-9-kees@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261003035906.too.263-kees@kernel.org>

perf_stats_show() and flags_show() build their output with a seq_buf
and return seq_buf_used(), which may include the trailing NUL byte
when the seq_buf has overflowed. Use seq_buf_strlen() instead. As
suggested in review, use it as well for flags_show()'s check whether
any flag was printed.

Build tested ARCH=powerpc ppc64_defconfig with GCC powerpc64-linux-gnu
16.2.0:
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/papr_scm.o
