Hi, This removes unused macros, various memset, extra variable in the target/iblock for bio get and fixes type mismatch for the same. The unused macros warning are found at compile time and they are documented in each patch commit log. For memset removal, there are no warnings. First four patches are target_core_iblock.c cleanup. The next six patches are removal of the unused macros followed by elevan patches to remove the memset for local array buffers. The last patch is for removing the duplicate memset to initialize the buffer to 0xff. I've tested this patch series with creating target bdev backend with loop back transport, fio verification job seems to work fine. Any feedback is welcome. This is generated on today's linux-block for-next. -ck Chaitanya Kulkarni (23): target/iblock: remove an extra argument target/iblock: trim down line longer than 80 char target/iblock: fix the type of the logs_per_phys targe/pscsi: fix the warning in pscsi_complete_cmd target/sbc: get rid of the warning in cmp & write target/pscsi: remove unsed macro ISPRINT target/stat: remove unsed macro ISPRINT target/stat: remove unsed macro NONE target/stat: remove unsed macro target/iscsi: remove unsed macro TEXT_LEN target/iscsi: remove unsed macro PRINT_BUF target/iscsi: remove the memset with declare-init target/configfs: remove the memset with declare-init target/configfs: remove the memset with declare-init target/configfs: remove the memset with declare-init target/configfs: remove the memset with declare-init target/configfs: remove the memset with declare-init target/configfs: remove the memset with declare-init target/configfs: remove the memset with declare-init target/pr: remove the memset with declare-init target/pr: remove the memset with declare-init target/pr: remove the memset with declare-init target/core: don't duplicate memset 0xff drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_configfs.c | 3 +- drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_nego.c | 1 - drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_stat.c | 1 - drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_util.c | 17 --------- drivers/target/target_core_configfs.c | 25 ++++--------- drivers/target/target_core_file.c | 3 +- drivers/target/target_core_iblock.c | 37 ++++++++++---------- drivers/target/target_core_pr.c | 36 +++++++------------ drivers/target/target_core_pscsi.c | 5 ++- drivers/target/target_core_sbc.c | 4 +-- drivers/target/target_core_stat.c | 3 -- 11 files changed, 45 insertions(+), 90 deletions(-) Test log for fio verification job with bdev backend with loop transport:- #
