Doubly linked lists which are iterated using list_empty and list_entry macros have been replaced with list_for_each_entry_safe macro. This makes the iteration simpler and more readable. This patch replaces the while loop containing list_empty and list_entry with list_for_each_entry_safe. This was done with Coccinelle. @@ expression E1; identifier I1, I2; type T; iterator name list_for_each_entry_safe; @@ T *I1; + T *tmp; ... - while (list_empty(&E1) == 0) + list_for_each_entry_safe (I1, tmp, &E1, I2) { ...when != T *I1; - I1 = list_entry(E1.next, T, I2); ... } Signed-off-by: simran singhal <singhalsimran0@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/statahead.c | 5 ++--- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/statahead.c b/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/statahead.c index fb7c315..d1287b2 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/statahead.c +++ b/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/statahead.c @@ -860,6 +860,7 @@ static int ll_agl_thread(void *arg) struct inode *dir = d_inode(parent); struct ll_inode_info *plli = ll_i2info(dir); struct ll_inode_info *clli; + struct ll_inode_info *tmp; struct ll_sb_info *sbi = ll_i2sbi(dir); struct ll_statahead_info *sai; struct ptlrpc_thread *thread; @@ -909,9 +910,7 @@ static int ll_agl_thread(void *arg) spin_lock(&plli->lli_agl_lock); sai->sai_agl_valid = 0; - while (!list_empty(&sai->sai_agls)) { - clli = list_entry(sai->sai_agls.next, - struct ll_inode_info, lli_agl_list); + list_for_each_entry_safe(clli, tmp, &sai->sai_agls, lli_agl_list) { list_del_init(&clli->lli_agl_list); spin_unlock(&plli->lli_agl_lock); clli->lli_agl_index = 0; -- 2.7.4 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
