I looked at existing users and there are cases like #define XXX_UUID UUID_...(a, b, c, ...) uuid_.*_cmp(value, XXX_UUID) For _pp variant if would be _cmp_pp(value, &XXX_UUID) which is slightly worse than for _p variant.

Maybe it's worth to actually replace the defines with variables than to create an interface with all the permutations. Tomas

Maybe. I didn't estimate the number of users that would be in a scope.

The bug occurs if the compound literal is passed by reference. It does not manifest itself when passing by value: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=68725 Hence this patch is unfortunately counterproductive if the UUIDs are declared const. FWIW I've posted a series back in January to constify UUIDs as much as possible, but I got some objections and lacked the time so far to address them. In fact I'm thinking that gcc needs to be fixed first, then we can focus on improving the kernel side of things: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-efi/msg10093.html Best regards, Lukas

New helpers take pointers to uuid_{be|le} as parameters. When using them on a raw data we don't need to do an ugly dereference and, in some cases, a type casting.
