All the callers just check if the resultat is non-zero. Before this patch, the function returns the length of the produced content. This value is not useful because is returned twice: the first time in the return value and the second time in the argument. Now the function returns the number of bytes consumed from . --- diff --git a/src/standard.c b/src/standard.c index 3ed1e2aed2..adaba75ba8 100644 --- a/src/standard.c +++ b/src/standard.c @@ -1360,7 +1360,7 @@ const char *parse_size_err(const char *text, unsigned *ret) { * Parse binary string written in hexadecimal (source) and store the decoded * result into binstr and set binstrlen to the lengh of binstr.
