From: Daniel Scheller <d.scheller@xxxxxxx> When loading the budget_av driver for ie. a KNC1 DVB-C TDA10024 card, which makes use of the ttpci eeprom check functionality (that always fails on these cards, but that's no issue at all), this is printed to the kernel log: [ 10.497333] saa7146 (0): dma buffer size 192512 [ 10.497335] dvbdev: DVB: registering new adapter (KNC1 DVB-C TDA10024) [ 10.545007] adapter failed MAC signature check [ 10.545009] encoded MAC from EEPROM was [ 10.545010] ff: [ 10.545011] ff: [ 10.545011] ff: ... [ 10.545021] ff [ 10.832422] budget_av: KNC1-4: MAC addr = 00:09:d6:6d:b3:be with the 'ff' being repeated for a total of 20 times. Improve that by using the %*phC format specifier instead dprintk()'ing every byte of the encoded MAC separately. This obsoletes the int i, and the kernel log looks cleaner: [ 3234.383153] saa7146 (0): dma buffer size 192512 [ 3234.383154] dvbdev: DVB: registering new adapter (KNC1 DVB-C TDA10024) [ 3234.428745] adapter failed MAC signature check [ 3234.428747] encoded MAC from EEPROM was ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff [ 3234.728194] budget_av: KNC1-0: MAC addr = 00:09:d6:6d:b3:be Signed-off-by: Daniel Scheller <d.scheller@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/media/pci/ttpci/ttpci-eeprom.c | 9 +++------ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/media/pci/ttpci/ttpci-eeprom.c b/drivers/media/pci/ttpci/ttpci-eeprom.c index 9534f29c1ffd..78c7a6589be5 100644 --- a/drivers/media/pci/ttpci/ttpci-eeprom.c +++ b/drivers/media/pci/ttpci/ttpci-eeprom.c @@ -138,7 +138,7 @@ static int ttpci_eeprom_read_encodedMAC(struct i2c_adapter *adapter, u8 * encode int ttpci_eeprom_parse_mac(struct i2c_adapter *adapter, u8 *proposed_mac) { - int ret, i; + int ret; u8 encodedMAC[20]; u8 decodedMAC[6]; @@ -153,11 +153,8 @@ int ttpci_eeprom_parse_mac(struct i2c_adapter *adapter, u8 *proposed_mac) ret = getmac_tt(decodedMAC, encodedMAC); if( ret != 0 ) { dprintk("adapter failed MAC signature check\n"); - dprintk("encoded MAC from EEPROM was " ); - for(i=0; i<19; i++) { - dprintk( "%.2x:", encodedMAC[i]); - } - dprintk("%.2x\n", encodedMAC[19]); + dprintk("encoded MAC from EEPROM was %*phC", + (int)sizeof(encodedMAC), &encodedMAC); eth_zero_addr(proposed_mac); return ret; } -- 2.16.1
