Why do you need it zeroed? You don't clear it between iterations, so either you don't need this, or you have a bug in the loop.
- if (!timer_mem)
return -ENOMEM;- while (!gtdt_arch_timer_mem_init(timer_mem, i)) {
Huh?
Why doesn't GTDT expose a function to fill in the entire arch_timer_mem in one go?
There shouldn't be multiple instances, as far as I am aware. Am I mistaken?
ret = arch_timer_mem_init(timer_mem);if (ret)break;i++;- }
- kfree(timer_mem);
- return ret;
+}
Regardless, arch_timer_mem is small enough that you don't need dynamic allocaiton. Just put it on the stack, e.g.
static int __init arch_timer_mem_acpi_init(void) { int i = 0; struct arch_timer_mem timer_mem;
while (!gtdt_arch_timer_mem_init(timer_mem, i)) { int ret = arch_timer_mem_init(); if (ret) return ret; i++ }
return 0; }
Thanks, Mark.
