Something like: static bool saa7164_enable_msi(struct device *pci_dev) { if (!enable_msi) return false; err = pci_enable_msi(pci_dev); if (err) { printf(KERN_ERR "%s() Failed to enable MSI" " Falling back to a shared IRQ\n", __func__); return false; } err = request_irq(pci_dev->irq, saa7164_irq, 0, dev->name, dev); if (err) { printk(KERN_ERR "%s() Failed to get an MSI interrupt." " Falling back to a shared IRQ\n", __func__); pci_disable_msi(pci_dev); return false; } return true; } Then, at the probe function, you could simply do: if (saa7164_enable_msi(pci_dev)) { dev->msi = true; } else { /* SOME_FALLBACK_CODE */ } The probe function is already complex enough. Breaking it into small inlined functions makes easier to review. The removal of the if's is an extra bonus, as the code size will likely be a little bit smaller. > + > + if ((!enable_msi) || err) { > + dev->msi = false; No need, as dev was initialized with kzalloc(), with zeroes all fields. Also, you can simplify the "if" clause to: if (!dev->msi) { That makes clearer that the code below is to be used when MSI is not enabled or not initialized properly. > + /* if we have an error (i.e. we don't have an interrupt) > + or msi is not enabled - fallback to shared interrupt */ > + > + err = request_irq(pci_dev->irq, saa7164_irq, > + IRQF_SHARED, dev->name, dev); > + } > + > if (err < 0) { > printk(KERN_ERR "%s: can't get IRQ %d\n", dev->name, > pci_dev->irq); > @@ -1439,6 +1470,11 @@ static void saa7164_finidev(struct pci_dev *pci_dev) > /* unregister stuff */ > free_irq(pci_dev->irq, dev); > > + if (dev->msi) { > + pci_disable_msi(pci_dev); > + dev->msi = false; > + } > + > pci_disable_device(pci_dev); > > mutex_lock(&devlist); > diff --git a/drivers/media/pci/saa7164/saa7164.h b/drivers/media/pci/saa7164/saa7164.h > index cd1a07c..6df4b252 100644 > --- a/drivers/media/pci/saa7164/saa7164.h > +++ b/drivers/media/pci/saa7164/saa7164.h > @@ -459,6 +459,7 @@ struct saa7164_dev { > /* Interrupt status and ack registers */ > u32 int_status; > u32 int_ack; > + u32 msi; Should be bool instead of u32. > > struct cmd cmds[SAA_CMD_MAX_MSG_UNITS]; > struct mutex lock; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
