From: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@xxxxxxxxxxx> PTR_ERR(NULL) is success. Normally when a function returns both NULL and error pointers, it means that NULL is not a error. But, rsnd_dmaen_request_channel() returns NULL if requested resource was failed. Let's return -EIO if rsnd_dmaen_request_channel() was failed on rsnd_dmaen_nolock_start(). This patch fixes commit edce5c496c6a ("ASoC: rsnd: Request/Release DMA channel eachtime") Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- sound/soc/sh/rcar/dma.c | 4 +--- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/sound/soc/sh/rcar/dma.c b/sound/soc/sh/rcar/dma.c index 5bc9ec1..fd557ab 100644 --- a/sound/soc/sh/rcar/dma.c +++ b/sound/soc/sh/rcar/dma.c @@ -219,11 +219,9 @@ static int rsnd_dmaen_nolock_start(struct rsnd_mod *mod, dma->mod_from, dma->mod_to); if (IS_ERR_OR_NULL(dmaen->chan)) { - int ret = PTR_ERR(dmaen->chan); - dmaen->chan = NULL; dev_err(dev, "can't get dma channel\n"); - return ret; + return -EIO; } return 0; -- 1.9.1 _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
