Subject: [PATCH v6 0/2] staging: rtl8723bs: Improve readability and clarity of sequence number wrapping
Date: Mon, 7 Apr 2025 21:53:50 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1744061673.git.abrahamadekunle50@gmail.com> (raw)
Tha patchset adds spaces around binary operators and also
provides clarity on sequence number wrapping by using a modulo operation
% 4096u, in place of the bitwise AND(&) operation & 0xfff.
The patches are required to be applied in sequence.
Changes in v5:
- Converted the patch with the subject "Use % 4096 instead of & 0xfff"
patch to a patchset.
- Added a patch to add spaces around binary operator.
Changes in v4:
- Corrected patch to use '%' instead of '&'.
- To ensure this change does not affect the functional
behaviour, I compared the generated object files before and
after the change using the `cmp` which compares the two
object files byte by byte as shown below:
$ make drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/core/rtw_xmit.o
$ cmp rtw_xmit_before.o rtw_xmit_after.o
No differences were found in the output, confirming that the
change does not alter the compiled output.
Changes in v3:
- Added more description to the commit message.
- Removed blank line in the tag block.
- Added more patch recipients.
Changes in v2:
- Changed the commit message t a more descriptive message which
makes it clear why the patch does the change.
- changed the subject title to include `4096u` to show that an
unsigned module is used.
Changes in v1:
- Added more patch recipients.
