From: Márton Németh <nm127@xxxxxxxxxxx> The id_table field of the struct pnp_driver is constant in <linux/pnp.h> so it is worth to make pnp_devids also constant. The semantic match that finds this kind of pattern is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r@ disable decl_init,const_decl_init; identifier I1, I2, x; @@ struct I1 { ... const struct I2 *x; ... }; @s@ identifier r.I1, y; identifier r.x, E; @@ struct I1 y = { .x = E, }; @c@ identifier r.I2; identifier s.E; @@ const struct I2 E[] = ... ; @depends on !c@ identifier r.I2; identifier s.E; @@ + const struct I2 E[] = ...; // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Márton Németh <nm127@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> Cc: cocci@xxxxxxx --- diff -u -p a/drivers/input/gameport/ns558.c b/drivers/input/gameport/ns558.c --- a/drivers/input/gameport/ns558.c 2009-12-03 04:51:21.000000000 +0100 +++ b/drivers/input/gameport/ns558.c 2010-01-08 19:23:15.000000000 +0100 @@ -166,7 +166,7 @@ static int ns558_isa_probe(int io) #ifdef CONFIG_PNP -static struct pnp_device_id pnp_devids[] = { +static const struct pnp_device_id pnp_devids[] = { { .id = "@P@0001", .driver_data = 0 }, /* ALS 100 */ { .id = "@P@0020", .driver_data = 0 }, /* ALS 200 */ { .id = "@P@1001", .driver_data = 0 }, /* ALS 100+ */ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
