There are a few implementations of string helpers in the tree like yesno() that just returns "yes" or "no" depending on a boolean argument. Those are helpful to output strings to the user or log. In order to consolidate them, prefix all of them str_ prefix to make it clear what they are about and avoid symbol clashes. Taking the commoon `val ? "yes" : "no"` implementation, quite a few users of open coded yesno() could later be converted to the new function: $ git grep '?\s*"yes"\s*' | wc -l 286 $ git grep '?\s*"no"\s*' | wc -l 20 The inlined function should keep the const strings local to each compilation unit, the same way it's now, thus not changing the current behavior.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
