Your changelog needs to describe all of the changes you are making. The subject line only describes one. This patch is doing the following: - Converting printk(KERN_ERR to pr_err - Adding __func__ prefixes to printk lines - Refactoring split printk strings onto a single line There are a few other printks in this file which could be converted to pr_* to make the code more consistent. Perhaps a follow up patch? Typically for a sub-sequent version of a patch/series you should list the changes since the last round. Put these below the --- so that they don't become part of the change log, e.g.: Signed-off-by: Your name/email here --- Changes since v2: - Some stuff Changes since v1: - Some other stuff Some more comments below. ~Ryan > > Signed-off-by: Toshiaki Yamane <yamaneto...@gmail.com> > --- > drivers/staging/panel/panel.c | 42 +++++++++++++++++----------------------- > 1 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/staging/panel/panel.c b/drivers/staging/panel/panel.c > index 7365089..a6d71fd 100644 > --- a/drivers/staging/panel/panel.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/panel/panel.c > @@ -34,6 +34,8 @@ > * > */ > > +#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt > + If you are going to print __func__ on each line, you can do: #define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME "%s: " fmt, __func__ Do you really need to print the function name out everywhere though? > #include <linux/module.h> > > #include <linux/types.h> > @@ -1987,10 +1989,9 @@ static struct logical_input *panel_bind_key(char > *name, char *press, > struct logical_input *key; > > key = kzalloc(sizeof(struct logical_input), GFP_KERNEL); > - if (!key) { > - printk(KERN_ERR "panel: not enough memory\n"); > + if (!key) > return NULL; > - } > + > if (!input_name2mask(name, &key->mask, &key->value, &scan_mask_i, > &scan_mask_o)) { > kfree(key); > @@ -2030,10 +2031,9 @@ static struct logical_input *panel_bind_callback(char > *name, > struct logical_input *callback; > > callback = kmalloc(sizeof(struct logical_input), GFP_KERNEL); > - if (!callback) { > - printk(KERN_ERR "panel: not enough memory\n"); > + if (!callback) > return NULL; > - } > + > memset(callback, 0, sizeof(struct logical_input)); > if (!input_name2mask(name, &callback->mask, &callback->value, > &scan_mask_i, &scan_mask_o)) > @@ -2110,10 +2110,8 @@ static void panel_attach(struct parport *port) > return; > > if (pprt) { > - printk(KERN_ERR > - "panel_attach(): port->number=%d parport=%d, " > - "already registered !\n", > - port->number, parport); > + pr_err("%s: port->number=%d parport=%d, already registered !\n", > + __func__, port->number, parport); Nitpick - Could remove the space before the '!'.
