From f653398c86a1c104f0992bd788dd4bb065449be4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Andr=C3=A9=20Goddard=20Rosa?= Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2009 18:01:04 -0800 Subject: string: factorize skip_spaces and export it to be generally available MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit On the following sentence: while (*s && isspace(*s)) s++; If *s == 0, isspace() evaluates to ((_ctype[*s] & 0x20) != 0), which evaluates to ((0x08 & 0x20) != 0) which equals to 0 as well. If *s == 1, we depend on isspace() result anyway. In other words, "a char equals zero is never a space", so remove this check. Also, *s != 0 is most common case (non-null string). Fixed const return as noticed by Jan Engelhardt and James Bottomley. Fixed unnecessary extra cast on strstrip() as noticed by Jan Engelhardt.

However, we found one exception. scsi/ipr.c intentionally ignore return value of strstrip. Because it wishes to keep the whitespace at the beginning. Thus we need to keep with and without checked whitespace trim function. This patch adds a new strim() and changes ipr.c to use it.
