Thanks your kindly feedback. I'm correcting the part I missed. I'd like to take a few hints. (I revised the other parts that I didn't mention as you told me.) >> + * Copyright 2022 Iron Device Corporation > Missing Copyright (c) ? I don't know this part exactly, so when I looked it up.

I'm sorry I don't understand this meaning. In 'regmap_read', the last of the parameters is 'unsigned int' format. So, I've considered the two format 2bytes or 4bytes according to the complier. And our chip has only 1 byte data of each register, so I copy the data and cast the size only one byte.

The reason is to check whether it is all a problem or only that part. If there is a problem with each part, it is set to leave a log for each part. So the error code was combined without initializing. If I do this, it will be different from the kernel standard error code, so I would like to ask if I can do this. Or is there a better way? >> + >> + sma1303->attr_grp = &sma1303_attr_group; >> + ret = sysfs_create_group(sma1303->kobj, sma1303->attr_grp); >> + >> + if (ret) { >> + dev_err(&client->dev, >> + "failed to create attribute group [%d]\n", ret); >> + sma1303->attr_grp = NULL; >> + } > not clear what you are trying to do with sysfs?

It's the better. I'll modify. Is there a problem if I make a module and register it with the i2c driver like above?
