Recently, I saw a patch[1] on the ext4 mailing list regarding the correction of a macro definition error. Jan mentioned that "The bug in the macro is a really nasty trap...". Because existing compilers are unable to detect unused parameters in macro definitions. This inspired me to write a script to check for unused parameters in macro definitions and to run it. Surprisingly, the script uncovered numerous issues across various subsystems, including filesystems, drivers, and sound etc. Some of these issues involved parameters that were accepted but never used, for example: #define XFS_DAENTER_DBS(mp,w) \ (XFS_DA_NODE_MAXDEPTH + (((w) == XFS_DATA_FORK) ? 2 : 0)) where mp was unused. While others are actual bugs. For example: #define HAL_SEQ_WCSS_UMAC_CE0_SRC_REG(x) \ (ab->hw_params.regs->hal_seq_wcss_umac_ce0_src_reg) #define HAL_SEQ_WCSS_UMAC_CE0_DST_REG(x) \ (ab->hw_params.regs->hal_seq_wcss_umac_ce0_dst_reg) #define HAL_SEQ_WCSS_UMAC_CE1_SRC_REG(x) \ (ab->hw_params.regs->hal_seq_wcss_umac_ce1_src_reg) #define HAL_SEQ_WCSS_UMAC_CE1_DST_REG(x) \ (ab->hw_params.regs->hal_seq_wcss_umac_ce1_dst_reg) where x was entirely unused, and instead, a local variable ab was used. I have submitted patches[2-5] to fix some of these issues, but due to the large number, many still remain unaddressed. I believe that the kernel and matainers would benefit from this script to check for unused parameters in macro definitions. It should be noted that it may cause some false positives in conditional compilation scenarios, such as #ifdef DEBUG static int debug(arg) {}; #else #define debug(arg) #endif So the caller needs to manually verify whether it is a true issue. But this should be fine, because Maintainers should only need to review their own subsystems, which typically results in only a few reports.
