2015-07-17hexdump: fix for non-aligned buffersHoracio Mijail Anton Quiles1-3/+4
A hexdump with a buf not aligned to the groupsize causes non-naturally-aligned memory accesses. This was causing a kernel panic on the processor BlackFin BF527, when such an unaligned buffer was fed by the function ubifs_scanned_corruption in fs/ubifs/scan.c . To fix this, change accesses to the contents of the buffer so they go through get_unaligned(). This change should be harmless to unaligned- access-capable architectures, and any performance hit should be anyway dwarfed by the snprintf() processing time.

2015-02-12hexdump: make it return number of bytes placed in bufferAndy Shevchenko1-18/+55
This patch makes hexdump return the number of bytes placed in the buffer excluding trailing NUL. In the case of overflow it returns the desired amount of bytes to produce the entire dump. Thus, it mimics snprintf(). This will be useful for users that would like to repeat with a bigger buffer.

2015-02-12hexdump: do a few calculations aheadAndy Shevchenko1-24/+10

2015-02-12hexdump: fix ascii column for the tail of a dumpAndy Shevchenko1-3/+3
In the current implementation we have a floating ascii column in the tail of the dump. For example, for row size equal to 16 the ascii column as in following table group size \ length 8 12 16 1 50 50 50 2 22 32 42 4 20 29 38 8 19 - 36 This patch makes it the same independently of amount of bytes dumped. The change is safe since all current users, which use ASCII part of the dump, rely on the group size equal to 1. The patch doesn't change behaviour for such group size (see the table above).

Introduce print_hex_dump_debug() that can be dynamically controlled, similar to pr_debug. Also, make print_hex_dump_bytes() dynamically controlled Implement only 'p' flag (_DPRINTK_FLAGS_PRINT) to keep it simple since hex dump prints multiple lines and long prefix would impact readability.

2011-09-20lib: add error checking to hex2binMimi Zohar1-4/+11
hex2bin converts a hexadecimal string to its binary representation. The original version of hex2bin did not do any error checking. This patch adds error checking and returns the result. Changelog v1: - removed unpack_hex_byte() - changed return code from boolean to int Changelog: - use the new unpack_hex_byte() - add __must_check compiler option (Andy Shevchenko's suggestion) - change function API to return error checking result (based on Tetsuo Handa's initial patch) Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Andy Shevchenko <andy.shevchenko@gmail.com>

Reduce char linebuf[200] to the actual size required., which is 32 * 3 + 2 + 32 + 1, ie: linebuf[131]. Change examples to use bool true not int 1. Align multiline argument indentation to open parenthesis. Use temporary for ptr[j] so trigraph fits on single line. Convert printk ptr from %*p, (int)(2 * sizeof(void *)) to %p as %p uses the same calculation for size.

2009-06-16hexdump: remove the trailing spaceLi Zefan1-6/+9
For example: hex_dump_to_buffer("AB", 2, 16, 1, buf, 100, 0); pr_info("[%s]\n", buf); I'd expect the output to be "[41 42]", but actually it's "[41 42 ]" This patch also makes the required buf to be minimum. To print the hex format of "AB", a buf with size 6 should be sufficient, but hex_dump_to_buffer() required at least 8.

2007-08-09hexdump: use const notationArtem Bityutskiy1-2/+2
Trivial fix: mark the buffer to hexdump as const so callers could avoid casting their const buffers when calling print_hex_dump().

2007-06-08hexdump: more output formattingRandy Dunlap1-28/+121
Add a prefix string parameter. Callers are responsible for any string length/alignment that they want to see in the output. I.e., callers should pad strings to achieve alignment if they want that. Add rowsize parameter. This is the number of raw data bytes to be printed per line. Must be 16 or 32. Add a groupsize parameter. This allows callers to dump values as 1-byte, 2-byte, 4-byte, or 8-byte numbers. Default is 1-byte numbers. If the total length is not an even multiple of groupsize, 1-byte numbers are printed. Add an "ascii" output parameter. This causes ASCII data output following the hex data output. Clean up some doc examples. Align the ASCII output on all lines that are produced by one call. Add a new interface, print_hex_dump_bytes(), that is a shortcut to print_hex_dump(), using default parameter values to print 16 bytes in byte-size chunks of hex + ASCII output, using printk level KERN_DEBUG.

2007-05-11lib/hexdumpRandy Dunlap1-0/+104
Based on ace_dump_mem() from Grant Likely for the Xilinx SystemACE CompactFlash interface. Add print_hex_dump() & hex_dumper() to lib/hexdump.c and linux/kernel.h. This patch adds the functions print_hex_dump() & hex_dumper(). print_hex_dump() can be used to perform a hex + ASCII dump of data to syslog, in an easily viewable format, thus providing a common text hex dump format. hex_dumper() provides a dump-to-memory function. It converts one "line" of output (16 bytes of input) at a time. Example usages: print_hex_dump(KERN_DEBUG, DUMP_PREFIX_ADDRESS, frame->data, frame->len); hex_dumper(frame->data, frame->len, linebuf, sizeof(linebuf)); Example output using %DUMP_PREFIX_OFFSET: 0009ab42: 40414243 44454647 48494a4b 4c4d4e4f-@ABCDEFG HIJKLMNO Example output using %DUMP_PREFIX_ADDRESS: ffffffff88089af0: 70717273 74757677 78797a7b 7c7d7e7f-pqrstuvw xyz{|}~.
