Hi Dave,
After merging the net tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) produced these warnings:

Thanks Stephen I'll look into this.

Yeah this is a bit ugly.
It used to be that the dev_*() format string was CPP pasted to whatever
format string the user gave. So if the user gave an empty string it
still looked like a non-empty printf string.
But that no longer happens because we hide the implementation, and thus
the top-level printf format string, in the external functions.
It seems the construction:
/*
* Stupid hackaround for existing uses of non-printk uses dev_info
*
* Note that the definition of dev_info below is actually _dev_info
* and a macro is used to avoid redefining dev_info
*/
#define dev_info(dev, fmt, arg...) _dev_info(dev, fmt, ##arg)
added to linux/device.h was meant to handle these cases, but as we see
it doesn't.
It looks like there are just a hand-ful of cases, so maybe we can tweak
them by hand. For example, in the sym53c8xx_2 driver bits we can replace
the NULL labels passed to sym_print_msg() with a real string and therefore
remove the "" case.
Joe, any better ideas?

Nope, the _dev_info/dev_info is meant to handle the
current uses of dev_info as a variable like this one:
$ grep dev_info drivers/net/pcmcia/pcnet_cs.c
static dev_info_t dev_info = "pcnet_cs";
ret = request_irq(dev->irq, ei_irq_wrapper, IRQF_SHARED, dev_info, dev);
Without the _dev_info and dev_info as a macro,
the function is redefined as a variable.

You're right there are just a few cases where dev_info
is uses as a preface for a hex_dump style display.
Maybe it'd be OK to simply add a trailing space to the
preface and remove any leading spaces from the subsequent
initial printks.
dev_info(dev, " ");

That might work.
The sym53c8xx_2 doesn't even need this, like I said, you could
just remove the NULL 'label' argument cases and then have that
bit cured.
Could you take a stab at this and the other scsi bits that
trigger this warning?
Thanks Joe!

Remove warnings introduced by conversions of dev_<level>
macros to functions.
Compile tested only.

SCSI folks, the background is that we have moved the dev_*() printk
macros to external functions, so that the prefixing printf strings
don't get emitting at every call site.
As a consequence, dev_*() calls that try to use an empty string as the
printf format emit a warning from gcc since an empty constant string
is not a valid printf format.
That's what this change is all about.
Anyways:

Thanks, that explains the "" -> " " conversions.
What's the other 60% of the patch about? the strange addition of
scsi_show_extd_sense_args() and all the KERN_CONT bits?

Well the new function is for logical seperation, and KERN_CONT
is what is supposed to be at the front of every printk format
that continues a partially-printed line.

OK, so please resend on the necessary bits. That's "" -> " " in the
X_printk() statements. If you remove the space from a continuation
line, then KERN_CONT is appropriate to keep checkpatch quiet.

Can we have a fix for these please? They make too much noise in the builds.

Yes, but there were comments on that and nothing since. I think that
James would like a minimal patch that just fixes the newly introduced
warnings.

Hi Stephen.
What I submitted I think reasonable.
He can extract what he wants if he prefers it done that way.

Joe Perches presented patches to fix this (arguably always broken)
issue to James Bottomley and co. several weeks ago:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-next&m=127882494322533&w=2
And it's been, in typical SCSI subsystem maintainer fastion, in
"stall" mode ever since.
In fact, when we noticed this problem, Joe Perches said he would only
post the patches to the SCSI folks if I would "deal" with James
Bottomley. If it's to that point, well... I don't know what to say.
I know the warning is introduced by changes in my tree, but I
figured with weeks until the merge window James would be OK with
Joe's fix for the warning by then. Perhaps I was wrong.
If under my control, I would never _ever_ let something like that
linger for weeks upon weeks in my tree. 24 hour resolution, tops.
And the same goes for Joe Perches, which is why I trust him and merged
his changes which triggered the warning in the first place. I can
always count on him to do something immediately to try and fix
fallout, or in the worst case say "ok we can't resolve this just
revert my original change".
So I'm sorry, I'll never create a situation again where the SCSI
maintainer is in the critical path for getting a warning fixed. :-)

I think James is being overly difficult, and since it effects his code
you'd think that he might be a bit proactive and maybe spend the 5
freakin' minutes it might take to write the patch that matches his
exact requirements if they are so important.
Or, at least, I'm sure he could find enough time to sort it out in the
past month and a half don't you think?
I may be weird and a moron, but that's what I would do if my subsystem
had a build warning that was bugging people.

Me too.

Exactly, he's the maintainter so if he wants something fixed a
specific way he can do it as he likes.
