Please improve the commit message. Capital letters should only appear at the beginning of a sentence. There should be a space after a period. The current message also does not explain much about what you did. The key point in what you did would seem to be the addition of a new variable, but that isn't mentioned at all. > > Signed-off-by: Arushi Singhal <arushisinghal19971997@xxxxxxxxx> > --- > changes in v4 > - changes done such that no other errors can generate. > - Improve the coding style. > > drivers/staging/xgifb/XGI_main_26.c | 30 +++++++----------------------- > drivers/staging/xgifb/vb_setmode.c | 14 +++++++------- > 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 30 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/staging/xgifb/XGI_main_26.c b/drivers/staging/xgifb/XGI_main_26.c > index 6930f7eb741b..825f7dcd2f49 100644 > --- a/drivers/staging/xgifb/XGI_main_26.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/xgifb/XGI_main_26.c > @@ -878,30 +878,14 @@ static void XGIfb_post_setmode(struct xgifb_video_info *xgifb_info) > } > > if ((filter >= 0) && (filter <= 7)) { > + const u8 *f = XGI_TV_filter[filter_tb].filter[filter]; > + > pr_debug("FilterTable[%d]-%d: %*ph\n", > - filter_tb, filter, > - 4, XGI_TV_filter[filter_tb]. > - filter[filter]); > - xgifb_reg_set( > - XGIPART2, > - 0x35, > - (XGI_TV_filter[filter_tb]. > - filter[filter][0])); > - xgifb_reg_set( > - XGIPART2, > - 0x36, > - (XGI_TV_filter[filter_tb]. > - filter[filter][1])); > - xgifb_reg_set( > - XGIPART2, > - 0x37, > - (XGI_TV_filter[filter_tb]. > - filter[filter][2])); > - xgifb_reg_set( > - XGIPART2, > - 0x38, > - (XGI_TV_filter[filter_tb]. > - filter[filter][3])); > + filter_tb, filter, 4, f); > + xgifb_reg_set(XGIPART2, 0x35, f[0]); > + xgifb_reg_set(XGIPART2, 0x36, f[1]); > + xgifb_reg_set(XGIPART2, 0x37, f[2]); > + xgifb_reg_set(XGIPART2, 0x38, f[3]); This part looks like it will now be much more readable. > } > } > } > diff --git a/drivers/staging/xgifb/vb_setmode.c b/drivers/staging/xgifb/vb_setmode.c > index 7c7c8c8f1df3..1220d0cea87d 100644 > --- a/drivers/staging/xgifb/vb_setmode.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/xgifb/vb_setmode.c > @@ -221,8 +221,8 @@ static unsigned char XGI_AjustCRT2Rate(unsigned short ModeIdIndex, > > for (; XGI330_RefIndex[RefreshRateTableIndex + (*i)].ModeID == > tempbx; (*i)--) { > - infoflag = XGI330_RefIndex[RefreshRateTableIndex + (*i)]. > - Ext_InfoFlag; > + infoflag = > + XGI330_RefIndex[RefreshRateTableIndex + (*i)].Ext_InfoFlag; Here the alignment is not very nice. Maybe a new variable could also be introduced.

Try putting a newline after the =, and see if the right hand side can all fit on one line that way. The right hand side of the assignment should be indented as compared to the left hand side, though. julia > pVBInfo->SetFlag = 0; > pVBInfo->VBInfo = DisableCRT2Display; > -- > 2.11.0 > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "outreachy-kernel" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to outreachy-kernel+unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. > To post to this group, send email to outreachy-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. > To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/outreachy-kernel/20170226162633.GA20191%40arushi-HP-Pavilion-Notebook. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
