This avoids the problematic case: if (condition) i2c_hid_dbg(ihid, "Blah blah %d\n", i); else do_something_very_important(); Which looks correct, however with the previous macro definition, this expands to the unexpected: if (condition) { if (debug) \ dev_printk(KERN_DEBUG, &ihid->client->dev, "Blah blah %d\n", i); else do_something_very_important(); } Signed-off-by: Benjamin Tissoires <benjamin.tissoires@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/hid/i2c-hid/i2c-hid.c | 8 +++++--- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/hid/i2c-hid/i2c-hid.c b/drivers/hid/i2c-hid/i2c-hid.c index 9ee6555..54950be 100644 --- a/drivers/hid/i2c-hid/i2c-hid.c +++ b/drivers/hid/i2c-hid/i2c-hid.c @@ -50,9 +50,11 @@ static bool debug; module_param(debug, bool, 0444); MODULE_PARM_DESC(debug, "print a lot of debug information"); -#define i2c_hid_dbg(ihid, fmt, arg...) \ - if (debug) \ - dev_printk(KERN_DEBUG, &(ihid)->client->dev, fmt, ##arg) +#define i2c_hid_dbg(ihid, fmt, arg...) \ +do { \ + if (debug) \ + dev_printk(KERN_DEBUG, &(ihid)->client->dev, fmt, ##arg); \ +} while (0) struct i2c_hid_desc { __le16 wHIDDescLength; -- 1.8.0.1 -- 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
