Subject: [PATCH] scanlog_init cleanup, minor fixes
Date: Sun, 23 Mar 2008 17:51:45 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080323225144.GA7137@localdomain> (raw)
scanlog_init() could use some love.
* properly return -ENODEV if this system doesn't support scan-log-dump
* don't printk if scan-log-dump not present; only older systems have it
* convert from create_proc_entry() to preferred proc_create()
* allocate zeroed data buffer
* fix potential memory leak of ent->data on failed create_proc_entry()
* simplify control flow
