From: Julia Lawall <ju...@diku.dk> Use ERR_CAST(x) rather than ERR_PTR(PTR_ERR(x)). The former makes more clear what is the purpose of the operation, which otherwise looks like a no-op.
The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ type T; T x; identifier f; @@ T f (...) { <+... - ERR_PTR(PTR_ERR(x)) + x ...+> } @@ expression x; @@ - ERR_PTR(PTR_ERR(x)) + ERR_CAST(x) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <ju...@diku.dk> --- crypto/authenc.c | 2 +- crypto/ctr.c | 2 +- crypto/xts.c | 2 +- 3 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff -u -p a/crypto/authenc.c b/crypto/authenc.c --- a/crypto/authenc.c +++ b/crypto/authenc.c @@ -612,7 +612,7 @@ static struct crypto_instance *crypto_au auth = ahash_attr_alg(tb[1], CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_HASH, CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_AHASH_MASK); if (IS_ERR(auth)) - return ERR_PTR(PTR_ERR(auth)); + return ERR_CAST(auth); auth_base = &auth->base; diff -u -p a/crypto/ctr.c b/crypto/ctr.c --- a/crypto/ctr.c +++ b/crypto/ctr.c @@ -185,7 +185,7 @@ static struct crypto_instance *crypto_ct alg = crypto_attr_alg(tb[1], CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_CIPHER, CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_MASK); if (IS_ERR(alg)) - return ERR_PTR(PTR_ERR(alg)); + return ERR_CAST(alg); /* Block size must be >= 4 bytes. */ err = -EINVAL; diff -u -p a/crypto/xts.c b/crypto/xts.c --- a/crypto/xts.c +++ b/crypto/xts.c @@ -224,7 +224,7 @@ static struct crypto_instance *alloc(str alg = crypto_get_attr_alg(tb, CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_CIPHER, CRYPTO_ALG_TYPE_MASK); if (IS_ERR(alg)) - return ERR_PTR(PTR_ERR(alg)); + return ERR_CAST(alg); inst = crypto_alloc_instance("xts", alg); if (IS_ERR(inst)) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
