In olden times there was just strict_strtol() and strict_strtoul(). These days we have kstrtou8() and kstrtoint() and a bunch of others. So when you do these patches you have to take more time to consider what type we should be using and update the surrounding code. I haven't reviewed all of these so please check everything again. > diff --git a/drivers/staging/iio/impedance-analyzer/ad5933.c b/drivers/staging/iio/impedance-analyzer/ad5933.c > index 6330af6..afe191a 100644 > --- a/drivers/staging/iio/impedance-analyzer/ad5933.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/iio/impedance-analyzer/ad5933.c > @@ -326,7 +326,7 @@ static ssize_t ad5933_store_frequency(struct device *dev, > long val; > int ret; > > - ret = strict_strtoul(buf, 10, &val); > + ret = kstrtoul(buf, 10, &val); This bug is in the original code as well. "val" is long but it should be unsigned long. Later we check that: if (val > AD5933_MAX_OUTPUT_FREQ_Hz) { Forgetting that "val" could be a negative number. > diff --git a/drivers/staging/iio/meter/ade7753.c b/drivers/staging/iio/meter/ade7753.c > index e5943e2..fbb230a 100644 > --- a/drivers/staging/iio/meter/ade7753.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/iio/meter/ade7753.c > @@ -188,7 +188,7 @@ static ssize_t ade7753_write_8bit(struct device *dev, > int ret; > long val; > > - ret = strict_strtol(buf, 10, &val); > + ret = kstrtol(buf, 10, &val); For these we should be using the new kstrtou8() functions. > if (ret) > goto error_ret; > ret = ade7753_spi_write_reg_8(dev, this_attr->address, val); > @@ -206,7 +206,7 @@ static ssize_t ade7753_write_16bit(struct device *dev, > int ret; > long val; > > - ret = strict_strtol(buf, 10, &val); > + ret = kstrtol(buf, 10, &val); Same. > if (ret) > goto error_ret; > ret = ade7753_spi_write_reg_16(dev, this_attr->address, val); > @@ -418,7 +418,7 @@ static ssize_t ade7753_write_frequency(struct device *dev, > int ret; > u16 reg, t; > > - ret = strict_strtol(buf, 10, &val); > + ret = kstrtol(buf, 10, &val); > if (ret) > return ret; > if (val == 0) > diff --git a/drivers/staging/iio/meter/ade7754.c b/drivers/staging/iio/meter/ade7754.c > index 7b6503b..ea337c4 100644 > --- a/drivers/staging/iio/meter/ade7754.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/iio/meter/ade7754.c > @@ -188,7 +188,7 @@ static ssize_t ade7754_write_8bit(struct device *dev, > int ret; > long val; > > - ret = strict_strtol(buf, 10, &val); > + ret = kstrtol(buf, 10, &val); Same. > if (ret) > goto error_ret; > ret = ade7754_spi_write_reg_8(dev, this_attr->address, val); > @@ -206,7 +206,7 @@ static ssize_t ade7754_write_16bit(struct device *dev, > int ret; > long val; > > - ret = strict_strtol(buf, 10, &val); > + ret = kstrtol(buf, 10, &val); Same. > if (ret) > goto error_ret; > ret = ade7754_spi_write_reg_16(dev, this_attr->address, val); > --- a/drivers/staging/iio/trigger/iio-trig-periodic-rtc.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/iio/trigger/iio-trig-periodic-rtc.c > @@ -56,7 +56,7 @@ static ssize_t iio_trig_periodic_write_freq(struct device *dev, > unsigned long val; > int ret; > > - ret = strict_strtoul(buf, 10, &val); > + ret = kstrtoul(buf, 10, &val); For this one we should make "val" an int. > if (ret) > goto error_ret; > regards, dan carpenter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-iio" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
