[PATCH] pwm: sun4i: redundant assignment to variable pval

[PATCH] pwm: sun4i: redundant assignment to variable pval

[Colin King]

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Variable pval is being assigned a value that is never read. The
assignment is redundant and hence can be removed.

Looks fine, the issue exists since
deb9c462f4e539cc7f8389b9855eb7a507c78e7e.

You can even make pval a local variable for the second for loop.

It's only read in a do_div() and before that it is being assigned:

                        pval = prescaler_table[prescaler];
                        div = clk_rate;
                        do_div(div, pval);

so the assigned value of pval = 1 is never read

It's only read in a do_div() and before that it is being assigned:

                        pval = prescaler_table[prescaler];
                        div = clk_rate;
                        do_div(div, pval);

so the assigned value of pval = 1 is never read

[PATCH] pwm: sun4i: Narrow scope of local variable

[Uwe Kleine-König]

The variable pval is only used in a single block in the function
sun4i_pwm_calculate(). So declare it in a more local scope to simplify
the function for humans and compilers.

While the diffstat for this patch is negative for this patch I still
thing the advantage of having a narrower scope is beneficial.

Hello,

for the patch that became

	1b98ad3b3be9 ("pwm: sun4i: Drop redundant assignment to variable pval")

(and which yielded the situation that pval is only used in this single
block) I suggested to do this change. This was ignored however by both
Colin and Thierry without comment. So I suggest the change here
separately.

Best regards
Uwe

nit picking:
Doing the assignment first would remove the only use
of prescaler_table[prescaler].

unsigned int pval = prescaler_table[prescaler];
if ( ! pval )
  continue;

if you feel adventures you could also replace the for() for a while()
since we know that prescaler = 0.

while ( prescaler < PWM_PRESCAL_MASK )
{
unsigned int pval = prescaler_table[prescaler++];

nit picking: it would be reduced to a single use?!

Right, will send a v2 with that.

That however has some side effects as prescaler is used after leaving
the loop.

[PATCH v2] pwm: sun4i: Narrow scope of local variable

[Uwe Kleine-König]

The variable pval is only used in a single block in the function
sun4i_pwm_calculate(). So declare it in a more local scope to simplify
the function for humans and compilers.

While at it also simplify assignment to pval.

While the diffstat for this patch is negative for this patch I still
thing the advantage of having a narrower scope is beneficial.

In my compiler / .config setup (gcc 8.2.1, arm/imx_v6_v7_defconfig +
COMPILE_TEST + PWM_SUN4I) this change doesn't result in any binary
changes.

Hello,

changes since (implicit) v1:

 - also simplify assignment to pval as suggested by Walter
 - verify the patch doesn't introduce binary changes

Best regards
Uwe
