From: Qian-Yu Lin Date: Sat, 2 May 2026 07:55:34 +0000 (+0800) Subject: tracing: Remove local variable for argument detection from trace_printk() X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb/index.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=04fcbcf2dfe6a3fadc50b0f925c0b757386b82f8;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git tracing: Remove local variable for argument detection from trace_printk() The trace_printk() macro uses a local variable _______STR to detect whether variadic arguments are present. This name can shadow outer variables. Replace the local variable with sizeof applied directly to the stringified arguments: if (sizeof __stringify((__VA_ARGS__)) > 3) This eliminates the shadowing risk entirely without introducing any additional includes or local variables. Verified with objdump on samples/trace_printk that all four cases branch correctly: __trace_bputs, __trace_puts, __trace_bprintk, and __trace_printk.
