I thought about rewriting it more thoroughly when I wrote the patch, but couldn't come up with a good alternative, so I did the simplest change in this direction, replacing the silent crash with a loud one. Should we just dev_warn() and return instead, hoping that it won't do more harm? The backtrace from WARN_ON() probably doesn't help here. Arnd

Hmm... I'm not very familiar with this device or driver so take what I say with a grain of salt. On the surface level it looks like it might end up doing something wrong or unexpected. Returning an error code from this function (along with the dev_warn() or WARN_ON()) is the most sensible thing to do IMO. If the SPI layer sends an invalid value then the driver should be well within its rights to refuse the transaction. The function is currently void but making it return int seems fairly straightforward. > > The backtrace from WARN_ON() probably doesn't help here. > > Arnd

Applied to https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git for-next Thanks! [1/1] spi: rockchip: avoid objtool warning commit: d86e880f7a7c5b64a650146a1353f98750863f21 All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark
