Hi, The [vk][cmz]alloc(_node) family of functions return void pointers which it's completely unnecessary/pointless to cast to other pointer types since that happens implicitly. This patch removes such casts from drivers/scsi/ Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jj@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- aic7xxx/aic7xxx_core.c | 2 +- osst.c | 10 ++++------ 2 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_core.c b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_core.c index 3f5a542..e021b48 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_core.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_core.c @@ -4780,7 +4780,7 @@ ahc_init_scbdata(struct ahc_softc *ahc) SLIST_INIT(&scb_data->sg_maps); /* Allocate SCB resources */ - scb_data->scbarray = (struct scb *)kmalloc(sizeof(struct scb) * AHC_SCB_MAX_ALLOC, GFP_ATOMIC); + scb_data->scbarray = kmalloc(sizeof(struct scb) * AHC_SCB_MAX_ALLOC, GFP_ATOMIC); if (scb_data->scbarray == NULL) return (ENOMEM); memset(scb_data->scbarray, 0, sizeof(struct scb) * AHC_SCB_MAX_ALLOC); diff --git a/drivers/scsi/osst.c b/drivers/scsi/osst.c index 54de1d1..521e218 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/osst.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/osst.c @@ -1484,7 +1484,7 @@ static int osst_read_back_buffer_and_rewrite(struct osst_tape * STp, struct osst int dbg = debugging; #endif - if ((buffer = (unsigned char *)vmalloc((nframes + 1) * OS_DATA_SIZE)) == NULL) + if ((buffer = vmalloc((nframes + 1) * OS_DATA_SIZE)) == NULL) return (-EIO); printk(KERN_INFO "%s:I: Reading back %d frames from drive buffer%s\n", @@ -2296,7 +2296,7 @@ static int osst_write_header(struct osst_tape * STp, struct osst_request ** aSRp if (STp->raw) return 0; if (STp->header_cache == NULL) { - if ((STp->header_cache = (os_header_t *)vmalloc(sizeof(os_header_t))) == NULL) { + if ((STp->header_cache = vmalloc(sizeof(os_header_t))) == NULL) { printk(KERN_ERR "%s:E: Failed to allocate header cache\n", name); return (-ENOMEM); } @@ -2484,7 +2484,7 @@ static int __osst_analyze_headers(struct osst_tape * STp, struct osst_request ** name, ppos, update_frame_cntr); #endif if (STp->header_cache == NULL) { - if ((STp->header_cache = (os_header_t *)vmalloc(sizeof(os_header_t))) == NULL) { + if ((STp->header_cache = vmalloc(sizeof(os_header_t))) == NULL) { printk(KERN_ERR "%s:E: Failed to allocate header cache\n", name); return 0; } @@ -5851,9 +5851,7 @@ static int osst_probe(struct device *dev) /* if this is the first attach, build the infrastructure */ write_lock(&os_scsi_tapes_lock); if (os_scsi_tapes == NULL) { - os_scsi_tapes = - (struct osst_tape **)kmalloc(osst_max_dev * sizeof(struct osst_tape *), - GFP_ATOMIC); + os_scsi_tapes = kmalloc(osst_max_dev * sizeof(struct osst_tape *), GFP_ATOMIC); if (os_scsi_tapes == NULL) { write_unlock(&os_scsi_tapes_lock); printk(KERN_ERR "osst :E: Unable to allocate array for OnStream SCSI tapes.\n"); -- Jesper Juhl <jj@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.chaosbits.net/ Don't top-post http://www.catb.org/~esr/jargon/html/T/top-post.html Plain text mails only, please. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
