[PATCH v2] drm/xe: switch to local __basename() helper

From: Carlos Llamas
Date: Thu Aug 21 2025 - 18:01:06 EST


Commit b0a2ee5567ab ("drm/xe: prepare xe_gen_wa_oob to be multi-use")
introduced a call to basename(). The GNU version of this function is not
portable and fails to build with alternative libc implementations like
musl or bionic. This causes the following build error:

drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_gen_wa_oob.c:130:12: error: assignment to ‘const char *’ from ‘int’ makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Wint-conversion]
130 | fn = basename(fn);
| ^

While a POSIX version of basename() could be used, it would require a
separate header plus the behavior differs from GNU version in that it
might modify its argument. Not great.

Instead, implement a local __basename() helper based on strrchr() that
provides the same functionality and avoids portability issues.
