Use DEVICE_ATTR_RW for read-write attributes. This simplifies the source code, improves readbility, and reduces the chance of inconsistencies. The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @rw@ declarer name DEVICE_ATTR; identifier x,x_show,x_store; @@ DEVICE_ATTR(x, \(0644\|S_IRUGO|S_IWUSR\), x_show, x_store); @script:ocaml@ x << rw.x; x_show << rw.x_show; x_store << rw.x_store; @@ if not (x^"_show" = x_show && x^"_store" = x_store) then Coccilib.include_match false @@ declarer name DEVICE_ATTR_RW; identifier rw.x,rw.x_show,rw.x_store; @@ - DEVICE_ATTR(x, \(0644\|S_IRUGO|S_IWUSR\), x_show, x_store); + DEVICE_ATTR_RW(x); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> --- sound/soc/omap/mcbsp.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/sound/soc/omap/mcbsp.c b/sound/soc/omap/mcbsp.c index 06fec56..0b363d1 100644 --- a/sound/soc/omap/mcbsp.c +++ b/sound/soc/omap/mcbsp.c @@ -858,7 +858,7 @@ static ssize_t dma_op_mode_store(struct device *dev, return size; } -static DEVICE_ATTR(dma_op_mode, 0644, dma_op_mode_show, dma_op_mode_store); +static DEVICE_ATTR_RW(dma_op_mode); static const struct attribute *additional_attrs[] = { &dev_attr_max_tx_thres.attr, @@ -927,7 +927,7 @@ static ssize_t st_taps_store(struct device *dev, return size; } -static DEVICE_ATTR(st_taps, 0644, st_taps_show, st_taps_store); +static DEVICE_ATTR_RW(st_taps); static const struct attribute *sidetone_attrs[] = { &dev_attr_st_taps.attr, -- 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
