Currently, the following sparse warning happens at Marvell Armada PCIe driver. drivers/pci/host/pci-mvebu.c:743:31: warning: incorrect type in return expression (different address spaces) drivers/pci/host/pci-mvebu.c:743:31: expected void [noderef] * drivers/pci/host/pci-mvebu.c:743:31: got void * mvebu_pcie_map_registers() returns ERR_PTR(ret), however ERR_PTR() returns (void *), not (void __iomem *). ./drivers/pci/host/pci-mvebu.c static void __iomem *mvebu_pcie_map_registers(struct platform_device *pdev, struct device_node *np, struct mvebu_pcie_port *port) { struct resource regs; int ret = 0; ret = of_address_to_resource(np, 0, ®s); if (ret) return ERR_PTR(ret); return devm_ioremap_resource(&pdev->dev, ®s); } ./include/linux/err.h static inline void * __must_check ERR_PTR(long error) { return (void *) error; } Previously, I submitted the following patch, that adds (void __iomem *) cast. ./drivers/pci/host/pci-mvebu.c static void __iomem *mvebu_pcie_map_registers(struct platform_device *pdev, struct device_node *np, struct mvebu_pcie_port *port) { ..... ret = of_address_to_resource(np, 0, ®s); if (ret) - return ERR_PTR(ret); + return (void __iomem *)ERR_PTR(ret); However, other engineers said that "(void __iomem *)ERR_PTR(ret)" is not a general pattern. I cannot find the proper method to resolve this sparse warning. In this case, how can I resolve this sparse warning? Then, how about the following? Thank you for reading this. :-) Best regards, Jingoo Han --- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html --- a/drivers/pci/host/pci-mvebu.c +++ b/drivers/pci/host/pci-mvebu.c @@ -740,7 +740,7 @@ static void __iomem *mvebu_pcie_map_registers(struct platform_device *pdev, ret = of_address_to_resource(np, 0, ®s); if (ret) - return ERR_PTR(ret); + return NULL; return devm_ioremap_resource(&pdev->dev, ®s); } @@ -939,7 +939,7 @@ static int mvebu_pcie_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) continue; port->base = mvebu_pcie_map_registers(pdev, child, port); - if (IS_ERR(port->base)) { + if (IS_ERR_OR_NULL(port->base)) { dev_err(&pdev->dev, "PCIe%d.%d: cannot map registers\n", port->port, port->lane); port->base = NULL;
