Thansk for spotting this. The right way to check for errors is to check if the return value is less than 0. Could you please audit all uses of platform_get_irq() in drivers/gpu/ and send a series of patches, one for each driver. A quick "git grep -C 5 platform_get_irq" identified a few extra drivers that does not implement the recommend way to check for errors. Try to be a bit more terse in the changelog - but refer to the documentation of platform_get_irq(): * Example: * int irq = platform_get_irq(pdev, 0); * if (irq < 0) * return irq; Easier to embed it - rather than to link it. Fine with links in the intro mail. Sam _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
