So true. If 0 is the expected ret value and 1 is the expected function return for not-errored use, I suggest changing the last bit to: if (ret < 0) return BP_NOT_CAP; else if (ret > 0) return 0; return 1; so that the error conditions are done first and the normal return is at the bottom of the function. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
