If this builds, I guess #define BIT(x) got pulled in indirectly
since bits.h nor bitops.h is currently #included in that source file.
It does build. You are right that I should have included bitops.h
Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst rule #1 says:
1) If you use a facility then #include the file that defines/declares
that facility. Don't depend on other header files pulling in ones
that you use.
Please add #include <linux/bits or bitops.h>
I'm not sure about this patch. '1 << 31' is used all over in the kernel,
including in public headers (e.g. media.h, videodev2.h).
It seems arbitrary to change it only here, but not anywhere else.
Right. We have several places in the kernel that do that.
In this particular example for the fourcc handling I would prefer to just
use '1U << 31', both in v4l2-ioctl.c and videodev2.h.
If you would like to take the patch, I can send v2 fixing it using
1U << 31 - This is simpler since it doesn't nee additional includes.
A separate patch doing the same for MEDIA_ENT_ID_FLAG_NEXT in media.h would
probably be a good idea either: that way the public API at least will do
the right thing.
I should have explained it better. I wanted to start with one or two
places first to see if it is worth our time to fix these:
