Use DEVICE_ATTR_RO etc. for read only attributes etc. This simplifies the source code, improves readbility, and reduces the chance of inconsistencies. The semantic patch for the RO case, in the case where the show function already has the expected name, is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @ro@ declarer name DEVICE_ATTR; identifier x,x_show; @@ DEVICE_ATTR(x, \(0444\|S_IRUGO\), x_show, NULL); @script:ocaml@ x << ro.x; x_show << ro.x_show; @@ if not (x^"_show" = x_show) then Coccilib.include_match false @@ declarer name DEVICE_ATTR_RO; identifier ro.x,ro.x_show; @@ - DEVICE_ATTR(x, \(0444\|S_IRUGO\), x_show, NULL); + DEVICE_ATTR_RO(x); // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/hwmon/w83793.c | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/hwmon/w83793.c b/drivers/hwmon/w83793.c index 816aa6c..dab5c51 100644 --- a/drivers/hwmon/w83793.c +++ b/drivers/hwmon/w83793.c @@ -324,7 +324,7 @@ static int w83793_detect(struct i2c_client *client, }; static ssize_t -show_vrm(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr, char *buf) +vrm_show(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr, char *buf) { struct w83793_data *data = dev_get_drvdata(dev); return sprintf(buf, "%d\n", data->vrm); @@ -342,7 +342,7 @@ static int w83793_detect(struct i2c_client *client, } static ssize_t -store_vrm(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr, +vrm_store(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr, const char *buf, size_t count) { struct w83793_data *data = dev_get_drvdata(dev); @@ -1169,7 +1169,7 @@ static int w83793_detect(struct i2c_client *client, SENSOR_ATTR_2(cpu0_vid, S_IRUGO, show_vid, NULL, NOT_USED, 0), SENSOR_ATTR_2(cpu1_vid, S_IRUGO, show_vid, NULL, NOT_USED, 1), }; -static DEVICE_ATTR(vrm, S_IWUSR | S_IRUGO, show_vrm, store_vrm); +static DEVICE_ATTR_RW(vrm); static struct sensor_device_attribute_2 sda_single_files[] = { SENSOR_ATTR_2(intrusion0_alarm, S_IWUSR | S_IRUGO, show_alarm_beep, -- 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
