[dpdk-stable] [PATCH] lib/power: fix governor storage to trim newlines

[David Hunt]

Currently the Power Libray stores the governor name with an embedded
newline read from the scaling_governor sysfs file. This patch strips
it out.

Should not be needed as fgets null-terminates.

" fgets() reads in at most one less than size characters from stream and
stores them into the buffer pointed to by s.  Reading stops after an EOF or
a newline.  If a newline is read, it is stored into the buffer.  A
terminating null byte ('\0') is stored after the last character in the
buffer."

I have a feeling that either strlen or strtok here is unnecessary.

If it's always terminating - you can just use strlen return value and 
overwrite the '\n' without going over the string the second time - you 
know where the string ends!

You have already written null-terminator to the end of the buffer, so it 
can't overflow on strtok, so you don't really need strlen either, 
because the string will either:

1) be empty (in which case strtok does nothing)
2) contain text + newline (in which case you cut off the newline and 
leave the text - no need for strlen), or
3) contain just a newline (which would make it empty after strtok)

Did you mean to only cut off the newline off the strings that have stuff 
other than newline? That would be the only case where using strlen would 
make sense - in which case, not only the check is wrong, but you could 
also replace it with a simple 'if (buf[0] != '\n')' check instead of strlen.

So just the strtok() then, without anything else (apart from the 
comment) . Sure! :)
