Regarding your commit message: secs_to_jiffies() is defined in hci_event and cannot be reused by other callsites and this is why it's valuable to move it into core code. Especially because there are ~500 users which do the multiplier thing and there are also several users which use (secs * HZ). What do you think about converting the other users e.g. using Coccinelle? > Suggested-by: Michael Kelley <mhklinux@xxxxxxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Easwar Hariharan <eahariha@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > --- > include/linux/jiffies.h | 2 ++ > net/bluetooth/hci_event.c | 2 -- > 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/include/linux/jiffies.h b/include/linux/jiffies.h > index 1220f0fbe5bf..50dba516fd2f 100644 > --- a/include/linux/jiffies.h > +++ b/include/linux/jiffies.h > @@ -526,6 +526,8 @@ static __always_inline unsigned long msecs_to_jiffies(const unsigned int m) > } > } > > +#define secs_to_jiffies(_secs) msecs_to_jiffies((_secs) * MSEC_PER_SEC) > + Why not only doing #define secs_to_jiffies(s) (s * HZ) > extern unsigned long __usecs_to_jiffies(const unsigned int u); > #if !(USEC_PER_SEC % HZ) > static inline unsigned long _usecs_to_jiffies(const unsigned int u) > diff --git a/net/bluetooth/hci_event.c b/net/bluetooth/hci_event.c > index 0bbad90ddd6f..7b35c58bbbeb 100644 > --- a/net/bluetooth/hci_event.c > +++ b/net/bluetooth/hci_event.c > @@ -42,8 +42,6 @@ > #define ZERO_KEY "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" \ > "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" > > -#define secs_to_jiffies(_secs) msecs_to_jiffies((_secs) * 1000) > - > /* Handle HCI Event packets */ > > static void *hci_ev_skb_pull(struct hci_dev *hdev, struct sk_buff *skb, Thanks, Anna-Maria
