[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The patch

   spi: add spi_message_init_no_memset to avoid zeroing the spi_message

has been applied to the spi tree at

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] spi: add spi_message_init_no_memset to avoid zeroing the
 spi_message

In the spi_loopback_test driver there is the need to initialize
a spi_message that is filled with values from a static structure.

Applying spi_message_init to such a prefilled structure results in
all the settings getting reset to zero, which is not what we want.
Copying each field of spi_message separately instead always includes
the risk that some new fields have not been implemented in the copying
code.

So here we introduce a version of spi_message_init called
spi_message_init_no_memset that does not fill the structure
with zero first, but only initializes the relevant list_heads.
