the dc_init_descriptor_list actually returns a +ve error return codes, which is abnormal as other functions in kernel return -ve error codes on failure. so replace the return codes of this function with -ve values to make the consistency with the other functions in kernel Signed-off-by: Devendra Naga <devendra.aaru@xxxxxxxxx> --- v2: fix the subject line drivers/staging/sbe-2t3e3/dc.c | 6 +++--- 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/sbe-2t3e3/dc.c b/drivers/staging/sbe-2t3e3/dc.c index 9e81d90..51079f2 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/sbe-2t3e3/dc.c +++ b/drivers/staging/sbe-2t3e3/dc.c @@ -317,7 +317,7 @@ u32 dc_init_descriptor_list(struct channel *sc) sizeof(t3e3_rx_desc_t), GFP_KERNEL); if (sc->ether.rx_ring == NULL) { dev_err(&sc->pdev->dev, "SBE 2T3E3: no buffer space for RX ring\n"); - return ENOMEM; + return -ENOMEM; } if (sc->ether.tx_ring == NULL) @@ -327,7 +327,7 @@ u32 dc_init_descriptor_list(struct channel *sc) kfree(sc->ether.rx_ring); sc->ether.rx_ring = NULL; dev_err(&sc->pdev->dev, "SBE 2T3E3: no buffer space for RX ring\n"); - return ENOMEM; + return -ENOMEM; } @@ -351,7 +351,7 @@ u32 dc_init_descriptor_list(struct channel *sc) sc->ether.tx_ring = NULL; dev_err(&sc->pdev->dev, "SBE 2T3E3: token_alloc err:" " no buffer space for RX ring\n"); - return ENOBUFS; + return -ENOBUFS; } sc->ether.rx_data[i] = m; } -- 1.7.1 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
