The default namespace is the null string, "". When set, the null string "" is converted to NULL: s->namespace = namespace[0] ? NOFAIL(strdup(namespace)) : NULL; When printed, the NULL pointer is get back to the null string: sym->namespace ?: "" This saves 1 byte memory allocated for "", but loses the readability. In kernel-space, we strive to save memory, but modpost is a userspace tool used to build the kernel. On modern systems, such small piece of memory is not a big deal. Handle the namespace string as is. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com> |
