There's nothing broken about the way the code currently stands, so I'd rather try to find something to move the implementation forward than sideways. _______________________________________________ Linux-nvdimm mailing list -- linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org To unsubscribe send an email to linux-nvdimm-leave@lists.01.org ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

It's special, i.e. error pointer case. We don't handle such here. > There's nothing broken about the way the code currently stands, so I'd > rather try to find something to move the implementation forward than > sideways. Submit a patch then. I rest my case b/c I consider that ugly castings worse than additional API call, although it's not ideal. -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko _______________________________________________ Linux-nvdimm mailing list -- linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org To unsubscribe send an email to linux-nvdimm-leave@lists.01.org ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

It sounds like you'll NAK that patch, and I'm not too enthusiastic about these proposed changes either because I disagree that the code is incorrect. Is there another compromise? _______________________________________________ Linux-nvdimm mailing list -- linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org To unsubscribe send an email to linux-nvdimm-leave@lists.01.org ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
