[PATCH 22/34] iio: inkern: only return error codes in iio_channel_get_*() APIs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



APIs like of_iio_channel_get_by_name() and of_iio_channel_get_all() were
returning a mix of NULL and error pointers being NULL the way to
"notify" that we should do a "system" lookup for channels. This make
it very confusing and prone to errors as commit dbbccf7c20bf
("iio: inkern: fix return value in devm_of_iio_channel_get_by_name()")
proves. On top of this, patterns like 'if (channel != NULL) return channel'
were being used where channel could actually be an error code which
makes the code hard to read.
