[PATCH] [RFC] i2c: imx: make use of format specifier %dE

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

 



I created a patch that teaches printk et al to emit a symbolic error
name for an error valued integer[1]. With that applied

	dev_err(&pdev->dev, "can't enable I2C clock, ret=%dE\n", ret);

emits

	... can't enable I2C clock, ret=EIO

if ret is -EIO. Petr Mladek (i.e. one of the printk maintainers) had
concerns if this would be well received and worth the effort. He asked
to present it to a few subsystems. So for now, this patch converting the
i2c-imx driver shouldn't be applied yet but it would be great to get
some feedback about if you think that being able to easily printk (for
example) "EIO" instead of "-5" is a good idea. Would it help you? Do you
think it helps your users?

Thanks
Uwe
