Subject: Re: [PATCH 21/40] staging: lustre: improve LNet clean up code and API
Date: Wed, 2 Dec 2015 15:59:45 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20151202125440.GS18797@mwanda> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1448062576-23757-22-git-send-email-jsimmons@infradead.org>

Actually we're going to have to redo so much code that it's not worth it
for me to review the rest of these patches.  Please just look over
everything again:

 BAD:	return -1;
GOOD:	return -EINVAL;

 BAD:  failed0:
GOOD:  free_something:

 BAD:	if (rc != 0)
GOOD:	if (rc)

Do one thing per patch.
Do not introduce a bug and then fix it in a later patch.
Check ioc_len more carefully.
Don't make the code look ugly just to please checkpatch.pl.
Do error handling not success handling.
Try to avoid indenting a far to the right.


regards,
dan carpenter
