I did split 8, 16 and 32 into 3 patches in v2, then it seemed to me it would be easier to review if I also separated new functions. I can just use an amended v2 as v4. I add reads and writes together to avoid type mismatches in the code that reads/writes the same variable, > > drivers/usb/serial/cp210x.c | 166 > ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > > 1 file changed, 166 insertions(+) > > > > diff --git a/drivers/usb/serial/cp210x.c b/drivers/usb/serial/cp210x.c > > index fd67958..324eb7e 100644 > > --- a/drivers/usb/serial/cp210x.c > > +++ b/drivers/usb/serial/cp210x.c > > @@ -323,6 +323,172 @@ struct cp210x_comm_status { > > #define PURGE_ALL 0x000f > > > > /* > > + * Reads a variable-sized block of CP210X_ registers, identified by req. > > + * Returns data into buf in native USB byte order. > > + */ > > +static int cp210x_read_reg_block(struct usb_serial_port *port, u8 req, > > + void *buf, int bufsize) > > +{ > > + struct usb_serial *serial = port->serial; > > + struct cp210x_port_private *port_priv = > usb_get_serial_port_data(port); > > + void *dmabuf; > > + int result; > > + > > + dmabuf = kmalloc(bufsize, GFP_KERNEL); > > + if (!dmabuf) { > > + /* > > + * FIXME Some callers don't bother to check for error, > > + * at least give them consistent junk until they are fixed > > + */ > > + memset(buf, 0, bufsize); > > Instead of adding these FIXMEs and possibly risk introducing regressions > (these functions used to leave the previous values unchanged on errors), The current cp210x_get_config() does clear the caller's storage on an error. So my refactoring just preserves the old behavior. > how about adding the missing error handling first? It's easier to work with and see bugs in cleaned up code, that's why I do it in this order. I do intend to fix the error handling later. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
