From e8193650bf38bf531f19de36ae3afdee32627191 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masahiro Yamada Date: Fri, 6 Dec 2019 22:03:01 +0900 Subject: mkcompile_h: git rid of UTS_TRUNCATE from LINUX_COMPILE_{BY,HOST} UTS_VERSION is set to struct uts_namespace, hence a too long string should be truncated so it fits in 64 characters. On the other hand, LINUX_COMPILE_BY/HOST are not set to uts_namespace. They are just used in the banners, which do not have specific length limitation. I dug into the git history, but I could not find the reason why these two strings must fit in 64 characters. Remove them. Now that UTS_VERSION is the only user of UTS_TRUNCATE, I squashed it.

Here is another one. Since commit f07726048d59 ("Fix handling of backlash character in LINUX_COMPILE_BY name"), we must escape a backslash contained in LINUX_COMPILE_BY. This is not working on such distros as Ubuntu. As the POSIX spec [1] says, if any of the operands contain a backslash ( '\' ) character, the results are implementation-defined. The actual shell of /bin/sh could be bash, dash, etc. depending on distros, and the behavior of builtin echo command is different among them. The bash builtin echo, unless -e is given, copies the arguments to stdout without expanding escape sequences (BSD-like behavior). The dash builtin echo, in contrast, adopts System V behavior, which does expand escape sequences without any option given. Even non-builtin /bin/echo behaves differently depending on the system. Due to these variations, echo is considered as a non-portable command. Using printf is the common solution to avoid the portability issue.
