Subject: [PATCH v9 0/3] Improve usage of 'ret' variable and make pcf_doAdress() void
Date: Thu, 23 Oct 2025 15:00:40 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251023120043.8661-1-chiru.cezar.89@gmail.com> (raw)
Hello maintainers,
This patch series is a response to Change Requests made by Andi Shyti on
[PATCH v7 0/3] i2c: pcf8584: Fix errors and warnings reported by checkpatch
and more specific on PATCH: i2c: pcf8584: Move 'ret' variable inside for
loop, break if ret < 0.
Also a comment from Andy Shevchenko on "[PATCH v8 1/1] i2c: pcf8584: Move
'ret' variable inside for loop, break if ret < 0." about using 'goto out;'
instead of break since the goto out; was used in other error path branches
so it makes sense to be consistent.
2 new patches have been introduced into this patch series and they are
dependent on each other that's why the need for a new patch series v9.
Change Requests:
-remove initialization of 'ret' variable inside for loop of pcf_xfer() as
it is not needed
-change pcf_doAddress() function type from int to void as it always
returns 0.
-change if (ret < 0) break; with if (ret < 0) goto out; to be consistent
-change pcf_doAddress() function name to pcf_send_address()
Testing:
*built kernel and modules with I2C_ALGOPCF=m and my 3 patches applied on
top of 6.18.0-rc1.
*installed kernel and external modules generated by build on my laptop
*rebooted and loaded i2c-algo-pcf.ko without i2c_debug parameter.
*when loading the .ko with i2c_debug parameter an error is seen in dmesg
and this is expected as the parameter was removed.
*No success message related to i2c_algo_pcf was seen in dmesg but also
no failures.
*Module loading and unloading successful.
*No PCF8584 Hardware was available
