Subject: [PATCH 2/3] fortify: cosmetic cleanups to __compiletime_strlen
Date: Tue, 30 Aug 2022 13:53:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220830205309.312864-3-ndesaulniers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220830205309.312864-1-ndesaulniers@google.com>

Two things I noticed in __compiletime_strlen:
1. A temporary, __p, is created+used to avoid repeated side effects from
   multiple evaluation of the macro parameter, but the macro parameter
   was being used accidentally in __builtin_object_size.
2. The temporary has a curious signedness and const-less qualification.
   Just use __auto_type.
3. (size_t)-1 is perhaps more readable as -1UL.
4. __p_size == -1UL when __builtin_object_size can't evaluate the
   object size at compile time. We could just reuse __ret and use one
   less variable here.
