Hi, For patches 11-16, I've checked the building on x86, arm. x86 shows no difference in floppy.o binary.
Thanks for double-checking.
Compilation on arm tested (make rpc_defconfig). I think that macro fd_outb from arm could be turned to the static inline function, like on mips or m68k arches. However, it's up to you if you want to keep the changes close to the original structure.
I wanted to do it as well but wondered if we should focus on limiting changes or doign an in-depth cleanup. I'll see if I find time for an extra round of per-arch cleanup, I think it doesn't cost much and is probably worth being done.
Please address the warnings and resend the patches:
(...) Will do in my local patch set and I'll also CC RMK and the few other persons having touched the ARM part of the driver.
Everything else looks good to me. Thanks!
Thank you! I've also found an unlocking bug in the driver, when doing ioctl(FDRESET), if a signal comes, we leave without unlocking. I'll send a separate patch for this. Regards, Willy
