Perhaps more pleasant to read would be to rewrite this block like: if (pdata->length < 32 || copy_from_user(data, pdata->pointer, 32)) return -EINVAL; data[32] = 0; Perhaps as well the literal 32 uses here and the 33 in the declaration of data uses should be some #define or sizeof or ARRAY_SIZE. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
