In many case, it uses below style. int function(...) { ... return ret; } int caller(...) { ... ret = function(...); if (ret < 0) dev_err(...) ... } This is not so bad, but in this style *each caller* needs to indicate duplicate same error message, and some caller is forgetting to do it. And caller can't indicate detail function() error information. I know many people have many opinion, but if function() indicates error message, we can get same and detail information without forgot, and it is better. This patch-set tidyup to do it. int function(...) { ... if (ret < 0) dev_err(...) return ret; } int caller(...) { ... ret = function(...); ... } Kuninori Morimoto (14): ASoC: soc-pcm: indicate error message at soc_pcm_open() ASoC: soc-pcm: indicate error message at soc_pcm_hw_params() ASoC: soc-pcm: indicate error message at soc_pcm_prepare() ASoC: soc-pcm: indicate error message at dpcm_path_get() ASoC: soc-pcm: indicate error message at dpcm_be_dai_trigger() ASoC: soc-pcm: indicate error message at dpcm_apply_symmetry() ASoC: soc-pcm: indicate error message at dpcm_run_update_startup/shutdown() ASoC: soc-pcm: indicate error message at dpcm_fe/be_dai_startup() ASoC: soc-pcm: indicate error message at dpcm_fe/be_dai_hw_params() ASoC: soc-pcm: indicate error message at dpcm_fe/be_dai_prepare() ASoC: soc-pcm: don't indicate error message for soc_pcm_hw_free() ASoC: soc-pcm: don't indicate error message for dpcm_be_dai_hw_free() ASoC: don't indicate error message for snd_soc_[pcm_]dai_xxx() ASoC: don't indicate error message for snd_soc_[pcm_]component_xxx() include/sound/soc-dpcm.h | 2 +- sound/soc/soc-compress.c | 9 +- sound/soc/soc-core.c | 22 +---- sound/soc/soc-dapm.c | 24 ++--- sound/soc/soc-pcm.c | 197 +++++++++++++++++++-------------------- 5 files changed, 108 insertions(+), 146 deletions(-) -- 2.25.1 --- 3722e4ecefb38a62a98a798653685078de475e75
