You lost me... About what exactly ? If it is about how ppi must be used to initialize pi, the function kdoc comment does explain it. Note that the last hunk is wrong: there is a potential out of bound array reference. The condition should be: if (j < nr_ports - 1 && ppi[j + 1]) { Will send an update with that. > > Cheers, > > Hannes >

Avoid static checkers warnings about a potential NULL pointer dereference for the port info variable pi. To do so, test that at least one port info is available on entry to ata_host_alloc_pinfo() and start the ata port initialization for loop with pi initialized to a non-NULL pointer. Within the for loop, get the next port info (if it is not NULL) after initializing the ata port using the previous port info.
