Never do that in a driver. This is a static function, that you control the values being sent to it, you should never have to do such strict parameter checking with this line, or all of the other lines you have in this function. You _know_ that they will never be hit, so don't even check for them. > + if (NULL == rp->name || rp->flag & RAPL_PRIMITIVE_DUMMY) In Linux we do (rp->name == NULL), or even better yet (!rp->name), please fix that up here and elsewhere in the driver. > +static int rapl_check_unit(void) > +{ > + u64 output; > + u32 value; > + > + if (rdmsrl_safe(MSR_RAPL_POWER_UNIT, &output)) { > + pr_err("Failed to read power unit MSR 0x%x, exit.\n", > + MSR_RAPL_POWER_UNIT); dev_err() instead?

If a driver is working properly, it should NEVER print anything out, even the "I'm now loaded, look at ME!" lines. > +static void intel_rapl_dev_release(struct device *dev) > +{ > + return; > +} You didn't just do this... {sign} As per the documentation in the kernel tree, I get to publicly mock you and this code, in which you feel you are somehow smarter than the kernel by having to 'trick' it by providing an empty release function, thereby shutting the message it used to give you up. Do you really think I just put that error message in there for fun? You need to think that it was trying to tell you something, and providing an empty function is NOT what it is trying to tell you, that would be flat out stupid of it to do. Surely this didn't pass any internal Intel review, did it? Fix this now, it's totally unacceptable. > +MODULE_VERSION("0.1"); No one cares about the module version, just delete it. > +#define DRIVER_NAME "intel_rapl" Not needed, use MODULE_BUILD_NAME or some such thing. > +#define POWER_LIMIT2_ENABLE (0x1ULL<<47) > +#define POWER_LIMIT2_CLAMP (0x1ULL<<48) > +#define POWER_PKG_LOCK (0x1ULL<<63) > +#define POWER_PP_LOCK (0x1<<31) We have BIT definitions, why not use them? The only thing in this platform data .h file, should be platform data, not structures and definitions and enums, they should all be within the .c file as no one else cares about them. > +struct rapl_primitive_info { > + const char *name; > + u64 mask; > + int shift; > + enum rapl_domain_msr_id id; > + enum unit_type unit; > + enum rapl_primitives pm_id; > + u32 flag; > +}; > + > +#define PRIMITIVE_INFO_INIT(p, m, s, i, u, f) {#p, m, s, i, u, p, f} C has named initializers, use them please. greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe platform-driver-x86" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
