Subject: Re: [PATCH][next] PCI: apple: Remove redundant initialization of pointer port_pdev
Date: Tue, 12 Oct 2021 11:02:20 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <YWWjfIYLyyTMLaJX@sunset> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211012133235.260534-1-colin.king@canonical.com>
It looks like
port_pdev = pcie_find_root_port(pdev);
might've meant to read
port_pdev = pcie_find_root_port(port_pdev);
in which case the assignment would be used. I have no strong opinions
either way.
Full context for those following along at home:
```
static struct apple_pcie_port *apple_pcie_get_port(struct pci_dev *pdev)
{
struct pci_config_window *cfg = pdev->sysdata;
struct apple_pcie *pcie = cfg->priv;
struct pci_dev *port_pdev = pdev;
struct apple_pcie_port *port;
/* Find the root port this device is on */
port_pdev = pcie_find_root_port(pdev);
/* If finding the port itself, nothing to do */
if (WARN_ON(!port_pdev) || pdev == port_pdev)
return NULL;
list_for_each_entry(port, &pcie->ports, entry) {
if (port->idx == PCI_SLOT(port_pdev->devfn))
return port;
}
return NULL;
}
```
