[PATCH v2 0/8] uuid: convert users to generic UUID API

[PATCH v2 0/8] uuid: convert users to generic UUID API

[Andy Shevchenko]

There are few functions here and there along with type definitions that provide
UUID API. This series consolidates everything under one hood and converts
current users.

This has been tested for a while internally, however it doesn't mean we covered
all possible cases (especially accuracy of UUID constants after conversion).
So, please test this as much as you can and provide your tag. We appreciate the
effort.

Since v1:
- address Matt's comment (fix return value of efivarfs_valid_name())
- drop patches 5 and 6 (ACPI) for now, will return to them after sorting out generic things
- rebase on top of latest linux-next

Andy Shevchenko (8):
  lib/vsprintf: simplify UUID printing
  lib/uuid: move generate_random_uuid() to uuid.c
  lib/uuid: introduce few more generic helpers for UUID
  lib/uuid: remove FSF address
  sysctl: drop away useless label

[Andy Shevchenko]

Since we have hex_byte_pack_upper() we may use it directly and avoid second
loop.

[PATCH v2 3/8] lib/uuid: introduce few more generic helpers for UUID

[Andy Shevchenko]

There are new helpers in this patch:

uuid_is_valid		checks if a UUID is valid
uuid_be_to_bin		converts from string to binary (big endian)
uuid_le_to_bin		converts from string to binary (little endian)

They will be used in future, i.e. in the following patches in the series.

This also moves indices arrays to lib/uuid.c to be shared accross modules.

[PATCH v2 5/8] sysctl: drop away useless label

[Andy Shevchenko]

We have no locking in bin_uuid(). Thus, we may remove the out label and use
return statements directly.

[PATCH v2 7/8] efi: redefine type, constant, macro from generic code

[Andy Shevchenko]

Generic UUID library defines structure type, macro to define UUID, and the
length of the UUID string. This patch removes duplicate data structure
definition, UUID string length constant  as well as macro for UUID handling.

Well.  It converts two current users.

There are many references to "uuid" in the tree.  How many sites could
potentially benefit from this change?

I'm not sure who this series was aimed at but I saw "lib" and grabbed
it.  I'll await Matt's ack.

The big chunk is ACPI [1] though Rafael pointed out to some type

such in ACPI code from 2010: drivers/acpi/apei/ghes.c). That's why I
postponed that change.

Yes, this is lib/ stuff, I hope the rest would provide Ack.
