Hello Kenneth, I think the subject of your mail could be a little more informative, e.g.: [PATCH] Staging: comedi: s526: Fix checkpatch.pl issues You also have to provide a sign off line with your name and email address in the body of the message: Signed-off-by: Name < email > On Sat, May 29, 2010 at 02:26:44PM -0700, Kenneth Hale wrote: > diff --git a/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/s526.c b/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/s526.c > index 07c21e6..30fb65e 100644 > --- a/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/s526.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/s526.c > @@ -114,7 +114,7 @@ static const int s526_ports[] = { > }; > > struct counter_mode_register_t { > -#if defined (__LITTLE_ENDIAN_BITFIELD) > +#if defineD(__LITTLE_ENDIAN_BITFIELD) This is a typo I guess. Finally, there are multiple kernel log levels, you only used the KERN_ERR one, although it might be the right one for some places, like here: > @@ -796,7 +793,7 @@ static int s526_gpct_winsn(struct comedi_device *dev, > break; > default: /* Impossible */ > printk > - ("s526: INSN_WRITE: Functionality %d not implemented yet\n", > + (KERN_ERR "s526: INSN_WRITE: Functionality %d not implemented yet\n", > devpriv->s526_gpct_config[subdev_channel].app); > return -EINVAL; > break; some other messages may be only informational and could be logged with KERN_INFO. -- Charles Clément _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
