DEVICE_ATTR_RO may a good choice. But does it fit the code style to use DEVICE_ATTR_RO in drivers/perf? As far as know, CCN, CCI, SMMU, qcom_l2_pmu use "struct device_attribute" directly.DEVICE_ATTR_RO is just newer, and I think CCN, CCI, SMMU, etc. would be using it if they were written today. Of course, the drivers/perf maintainers may have a different opinion :)
Well, you are right, I will use DEVICE_ATTR_RO instead :)

I think every caller of dwc_pcie_pmu_read_dword() makes the same check and prints the same message; maybe the message should be moved inside dwc_pcie_pmu_read_dword()? Same with dwc_pcie_pmu_write_dword(); moving the message there would simplify all callers.I would like to wrap dwc_pcie_pmu_{write}_dword out, use pci_{read}_config_dword and drop the snaity check of return value as Jonathan suggests. How did you like it?Sounds good. Not sure the error checking is worthwhile since pci_read_config_dword() really doesn't return meaningful errors anyway.quoted

Not sure the code clutter is worth it.Do you mean to drop the snaity check of container_of?Yes. I'm suggesting that the NULL pointer oops itself has enough information to debug this problem, even without the pci_err().
I will drop the snaity check in next version. Thank you for you valuable comments. Best Regards, Shuai _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
