Fix the checkpatch.pl issue: CHECK: Prefer kernel type 'u16' over 'uint16_t' Change the type to 'unsigned short' as that is more typical in comedi drivers. Use sizeof(*p) instead of sizeof(type) when allocation the buffer. Also fix the checkpatch.pl issue: WARNING: line over 80 characters Signed-off-by: H Hartley Sweeten <hsweeten@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Ian Abbott <abbotti@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/das1800.c | 6 ++++-- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/das1800.c b/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/das1800.c index 118fa76..6045978 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/das1800.c +++ b/drivers/staging/comedi/drivers/das1800.c @@ -304,7 +304,7 @@ struct das1800_private { /* dma bits for control register b, stored so that dma can be * turned on and off */ int dma_bits; - uint16_t *fifo_buf; /* bounce buffer for analog input FIFO */ + unsigned short *fifo_buf; unsigned long iobase2; /* secondary io address used for analog out on 'ao' boards */ bool ai_is_unipolar; }; @@ -1200,7 +1200,9 @@ static int das1800_attach(struct comedi_device *dev, if (dev->irq & it->options[2]) das1800_init_dma(dev, it); - devpriv->fifo_buf = kmalloc_array(FIFO_SIZE, sizeof(uint16_t), GFP_KERNEL); + devpriv->fifo_buf = kmalloc_array(FIFO_SIZE, + sizeof(*devpriv->fifo_buf), + GFP_KERNEL); if (!devpriv->fifo_buf) return -ENOMEM; -- 2.6.3 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
