Oh, in my previous email I forgot to say that the patches should go to netdev with Dave Miller CC'd. @@ -20,18 +20,29 @@ #include <linux/module.h> #include <linux/kernel.h> #include <linux/version.h> -#include <linux/pci.h> +#include <linux/fs.h> #include <linux/sched.h> -#include <linux/slab.h> +#include <linux/proc_fs.h> +#include <linux/pci.h> There is no reason to shift the pci.h include around.

Probably it doesn't need to be configurable. Btw, here we are moving the module_param definitions around and mostly they are unchanged. When you are breaking the patch into lots of patches that can be one of the early ones: [patch 3/xx] farsight: move some definitions around Moving the definitions in a separate patch is easy to review and it makes the next patch (where you add in a few more definitions), it makes that patch much smaller and easier to review as well. +typedef struct class class_t; +#define CLASS_DEVICE_CREATE(class, dev, device, fmt, rest) device_create(class, device, dev, NULL, fmt, rest) checkpatch will complain about the class_t typedef, that's not how typedefs are used in the kernel. Also it's too generic a name. Also don't do that #define just call device_create() directly. /* Card shared memory layout * ========================= */ -#pragma pack(1) +#pragma pack(2) Don't use #pragmas in the kernel.

Anyway, I feel like I have given you a lot to work on. The good news is that this patch is mostly about adding a new driver and that can be done in one patch. I saw later on this driver creates a /proc file. That should probably sysfs file instead. We don't add /proc files these days. regards, dan carpenter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
