[dpdk-stable] [PATCH] usertools: replace unsafe input function

[dpdk-stable] [PATCH] usertools: replace unsafe input function

[Andrius Sirvys]

LGTM static code analysis tool reports that the function 'input' is
unsafe. Changed to use raw_input which then converts it using
ast.literal_eval() which is safe.

raw_input doesn't exist in Python 3.

Perhaps you should do this at the top of the script:

try:
     raw_input  # Python 2
except NameError:
     raw_input = input  # Python 3

That way, all calls to raw_input will call the intended function.

The suggested way in the python docs is a little different:

Actually, this requires a dependency. "future" appears to be 
preinstalled on most distributions, but "builtins" isn't. In fact, i 
can't even find it in pip.

So, it does work on python2 and python3, however it indeed requires a 
"future" package to be install through pip, which makes it an external 
dependency. The way i have quoted above doesn't require the 'future' 
package. I'm of no opinion on whether we should make the 'future' 
package a requirement for all of our Python code, however if we were to 
use this, it adds one extra step during setup and thus should be documented.

Going with your way is fine, and it does seem cleaner to me.

However, we should also question if we need to still support python2? 
Even if we do right now, we probably can drop support
for it at some point in the very near future.

[dpdk-stable] [PATCH v2] usertools: replace unsafe input function
