[PATCH] block/curl: use strlen instead of strchr
Posted by Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy 6 months ago
We already know where colon is, so no reason to search for it. Also,
avoid a code, which looks like we forget to check return value of
strchr() to NULL.

Heck.  All these strlen()s look ugly, especially in the
loop iterations..  To my taste anyway.

How about this instead:

Whole function for easy read:

static size_t curl_header_cb(void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *opaque)

     BDRVCURLState *s = opaque;

     }

     while (p < end && *p && g_ascii_isspace(*p)) {
         p++;

     for (t = "bytes"; p < end && *t; ++p, ++t) {
         if (g_ascii_tolower(*p) != *t) {

     }

     if (p == end || !*p) {
         s->accept_range = true;
     }

     return realsize;
}

Dunno why it also checks for *p being !=0 in the last part, but ok.

Sorry for the noise.  But I dislike usage of strlen() etc like this :)

I expect that strlen of string constant is calculated in compilation time.

My aim was to fix Coverity complain (I don't see this complain in public qemu coverity project, that's why I don't specify CID in commit message), not to rewrite the whole function. So I'd prefer Kevein's suggesting which is both minimal and makes the code obviously correct.. The only simpler thing is to mark the problem false-positive in Coverity.

Upd: I missed that you sent a patch, this changes things. Of course, you code looks nicer than old one.
