In that case will assigning the variable to devpriv->ao_loopbacks[chan] be acceptable? Please review below snippet. Otherwise I'll just drop the variable and adjust the lines to avoid checkpatch warning. Sorry for the inconvenience caused. [ Snip ] /* output the last scan */ for (i = 0; i < cmd->scan_end_arg; i++) { unsigned int chan = CR_CHAN(cmd->chanlist[i]); unsigned short data; if (!comedi_buf_read_samples(s, &data, 1)) { /* unexpected underrun! (cancelled?) */ async->events |= COMEDI_CB_OVERFLOW; goto underrun; } devpriv->ao_loopbacks[chan] = data; } /* advance time of last scan */ [ Snip ] Thks.
