BTW, for some reason your response is all double-spaced, which makes it a little hard to read. Also, it includes HTML and an image, which means the mailing list probably rejected it: http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html#taboo > diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pci/kirin-pcie.txt b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pci/kirin-pcie.txt > > index 68ffa0fbcd73..20357d840af1 100644 > > --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pci/kirin-pcie.txt > > +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pci/kirin-pcie.txt > > @@ -24,8 +24,8 @@ Example based on kirin960: > > pcie@f4000000 { > > compatible = "hisilicon,kirin-pcie"; > > - reg = <0x0 0xf4000000 0x0 0x1000>, <0x0 0xff3fe000 0x0 0x1000>, > > - <0x0 0xf3f20000 0x0 0x40000>, <0x0 0xF4000000 0 0x2000>; > > + reg = <0x0 0xf4000000 0x0 0x1000>, <0x0 0xff3fe000 0x0 0x1000>, > > + <0x0 0xf3f20000 0x0 0x40000>, <0x0 0xf4000000 0x0 0x2000>; > > [songxiaowei] The difference is add one more space between "0x0" and "0x1000" in the first element. > > But, I can't get your mind. It changes from this: reg = <0x0 0xf4000000 0x0 0x1000>, <0x0 0xff3fe000 0x0 0x1000>, <0x0 0xf3f20000 0x0 0x40000>, <0x0 0xF4000000 0 0x2000>; to this: reg = <0x0 0xf4000000 0x0 0x1000>, <0x0 0xff3fe000 0x0 0x1000>, <0x0 0xf3f20000 0x0 0x40000>, <0x0 0xf4000000 0x0 0x2000>; The extra space makes the elements align vertically. Columns of numbers are conventionally right-aligned, which makes it easier to compare their sizes. This hunk also changed 0xF4000000 to 0xf4000000 in the second line, so hex constants use lower-case consistently. > --- a/arch/arm64/boot/dts/hisilicon/hi3660.dtsi > > +++ b/arch/arm64/boot/dts/hisilicon/hi3660.dtsi > > @@ -159,12 +159,12 @@ > > pcie@f4000000 { > > compatible = "hisilicon,kirin960-pcie"; > > - reg = <0x0 0xf4000000 0x0 0x1000>, > > - <0x0 0xff3fe000 0x0 0x1000>, > > + reg = <0x0 0xf4000000 0x0 0x1000>, > > + <0x0 0xff3fe000 0x0 0x1000>, > > [songxiaowei] Can your tell why using two spaces? Reg is listed as <addr_hi addr_lo size_hi size_lo>. Again, just to make the sizes right-aligned so it's easier to compare the sizes. You can ignore this one if you want. There are lots of examples in the tree that don't align these. I just think it looks sloppy when things are almost but not quite aligned. > - <0x0 0xF5000000 0x0 0x2000>; > + <0x0 0xf5000000 0x0 0x2000>; Another case of making hex constants consistently lower-case. > diff --git a/drivers/pci/dwc/pcie-kirin.c b/drivers/pci/dwc/pcie-kirin.c index f63e6548efae..41520dd1d5e5 100644 > > --- a/drivers/pci/dwc/pcie-kirin.c > > +++ b/drivers/pci/dwc/pcie-kirin.c > > @@ -35,8 +35,8 @@ > > #define REF_CLK_FREQ 100000000 > > /* PCIe ELBI registers */ > > -#define SOC_PCIECTRL_CTRL0_ADDR 0x000 > > -#define SOC_PCIECTRL_CTRL1_ADDR 0x004 > > +#define SOC_PCIECTRL_CTRL0_ADDR 0x000 > > +#define SOC_PCIECTRL_CTRL1_ADDR 0x004 > > #define SOC_PCIEPHY_CTRL2_ADDR 0x008 > > #define SOC_PCIEPHY_CTRL3_ADDR 0x00c > ... > [songxiaowei] The space of the name of these macro definition and > > the value are really different from 1 to 3 Tab, but it seem likes as bellow opened by vim. > > [cid:image001.png@01D2E786.14883370] The image shows this: +#define REF_CLK_FREQ 100000000 + +/* PCIe ELBI registers */ +#define SOC_PCIECTRL_CTRL0_ADDR 0x000 +#define SOC_PCIECTRL_CTRL1_ADDR 0x004 +#define SOC_PCIEPHY_CTRL2_ADDR 0x008 +#define SOC_PCIEPHY_CTRL3_ADDR 0x00c So things are nicely aligned in the *patch*. But we don't care about alignment in the patch. What we want is alignment in the *file*, which ends up looking like this with your original patch: #define REF_CLK_FREQ 100000000 /* PCIe ELBI registers */ #define SOC_PCIECTRL_CTRL0_ADDR 0x000 #define SOC_PCIECTRL_CTRL1_ADDR 0x004 #define SOC_PCIEPHY_CTRL2_ADDR 0x008 #define SOC_PCIEPHY_CTRL3_ADDR 0x00c My incremental diff probably makes the patch look ugly, but the resulting file looks nicer. > struct kirin_pcie { > > - struct dw_pcie *pci; > > - void __iomem *apb_base; > ... > + struct dw_pcie *pci; > > + void __iomem *apb_base; > ... > [songxiaowei] it seems the variables list in the same coloumn with vim. Yes, these variables were aligned in your original patch; it's just that they used two or three tabs, when one or two was sufficient. So there's extra separation. Not a big deal.
