This could be static void without return 0 at the end.

Have a look at strsep() , namely strsep(block_str, ","); This will split 
the string up for you at "," delimiters.

Example is in drivers/dfu/dfu.c dfu_config_interfaces() .

And then, on each token, you can try and run sscanf(token, "%04x:%04x", 
vid, pid);, that will parse the token format for you. See e.g. 
test/lib/sscanf.c for further examples.

That should simplify the parsing a lot.
