This is a cleanup patch and doesn't change runtime behaviour. It changes an open coded list traversal to use list_for_each_entry_safe. Done using the following semantic patch by coccinelle. @r@ struct list_head* l; expression e; identifier m, list_del_init, f; type T1; T1* pos; iterator name list_for_each_entry_safe; @@ f(...){ +T1* tmp; <+... -while(...) +list_for_each_entry_safe(pos,tmp,l,m) { ... -pos = container_of(l,T1,m); ... -l=e; <+... list_del_init(&pos->m) ...+> } ...+> } Signed-off-by: Srishti Sharma <srishtishar@xxxxxxxxx> --- Changes in v2 -Make the commit message more clear. -Add file name to the subject. drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c | 8 +++----- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c b/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c index 52f31c7..4e1d06c 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c +++ b/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c @@ -5446,6 +5446,7 @@ u8 mlme_evt_hdl(struct adapter *padapter, unsigned char *pbuf) u8 tx_beacon_hdl(struct adapter *padapter, unsigned char *pbuf) { + struct xmit_frame *tmp; if (send_beacon(padapter) == _FAIL) { DBG_88E("issue_beacon, fail!\n"); return H2C_PARAMETERS_ERROR; @@ -5469,11 +5470,8 @@ u8 tx_beacon_hdl(struct adapter *padapter, unsigned char *pbuf) xmitframe_phead = get_list_head(&psta_bmc->sleep_q); xmitframe_plist = xmitframe_phead->next; - while (xmitframe_phead != xmitframe_plist) { - pxmitframe = container_of(xmitframe_plist, struct xmit_frame, list); - - xmitframe_plist = xmitframe_plist->next; - + list_for_each_entry_safe(pxmitframe, tmp, + xmitframe_plist, list) { list_del_init(&pxmitframe->list); psta_bmc->sleepq_len--; -- 2.7.4 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
