'tail' represent the *unique* point in the hierarchy where you can have a trim marker: (1) If there is a valid irqchip after a trim marker, this is wrong (2) If there is a trim marker after another trim marker, this is wrong (3) If there is a NULL irqchip before a trim marker, this is wrong (4) If there is an error that isn't a trim marker, this is wrong (1) and (2) are captured by: if (irqd->chip && tail) (3) is captured by: if (!irqd->chip && !tail) (4) is captured by: if (IS_ERR(irqd->chip)) { /* Only -ENOTCONN is a valid trim marker */ if (PTR_ERR(irqd->chip) != -ENOTCONN) The expected usage is that: - there is a single potential trim marker in the hierarchy - all the irqd->chip pointers below the marker are NULL - all the irqd->chip before the marker are neither NULL nor an error I don't see any bug here. Thanks, M. -- Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible.
