We have already few similar implementation and a lot of code that can benefit
of the yesno() helper.  Consolidate yesno() helpers under string.h hood.

Looks like a good idea to me, feel free to add an Acked-by: Christian 
König <christian.koenig@amd.com> to the series.

But looking at the use cases for this, wouldn't it make more sense to 
teach kprintf some new format modifier for this?

Christian.

Good luck. I gave up after just four versions. [1]

As a next step? IIRC Sakari has at some point the series converted
yesno and Co. to something which I don't remember the details of.

Guys, what do you think?

Thanks for a pointer! I like your version, but here we also discussing a
possibility to do something like %py[DOY]. It will consolidate all those RO or
whatever sections inside one data structure.

Honestly, I think that yesno() is much easier to understand than %py.
And %py[DOY] looks really scary. It has been suggested at
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/YCqaNnr7ynRydczE@smile.fi.intel.com/#t

Yes, enabledisable() is hard to parse but it is still self-explaining
and can be found easily by cscope. On the contrary, %pyD will likely
print some python code and it is not clear if it would be compatible
with v3. I am just kidding but you get the picture.

Best Regards,
Petr

Personally I prefer %s and the functions.

I think the format specifiers have become unwieldy. I don't remember any
of the kernel specific ones by heart, I always look them up or just
cargo-cult. I think the fourcc format specifiers are a nice cleanup, but
I don't remember them either. I'd like something like %foo{yesno} where,
if you remember the %foo part, you could actually also remember the
rest.

But really if you get *any* version accepted, I'm not going to argue
against it, and you can disregard this as meaningless bikeshedding.

BR,
Jani.

I was taking a look on i915_utils.h to reduce it and move some of it
elsewhere to be shared with others.  I was starting with these helpers
and had [1] done, then Jani pointed me to this thread and also his
previous tentative. I thought the natural place for this would be
include/linux/string_helpers.h, but I will leave it up to you.

After reading the threads, I don't see real opposition to it.
Is there a tree you plan to take this through?

thanks
