I guess it's good to be paranoid, but this is a little verbose: wi0 = of_get_property(node, "device-id", NULL); + if (unlikely((!wi0))) { + printk(KERN_ERR "PCI: device-id not found.\n"); + goto error; + } wi1 = of_get_property(node, "vendor-id", NULL); + if (unlikely((!wi1))) { + printk(KERN_ERR "PCI: vendor-id not found.\n"); + goto error; + } wi2 = of_get_property(node, "class-code", NULL); + if (unlikely((!wi2))) { + printk(KERN_ERR "PCI: class-code not found.\n"); + goto error; + } wi3 = of_get_property(node, "revision-id", NULL); + if (unlikely((!wi3))) { + printk(KERN_ERR "PCI: revision-id not found.\n"); + goto error; + } Perhaps instead: wi0 = of_get_property(node, "device-id", NULL); wi1 = of_get_property(node, "vendor-id", NULL); wi2 = of_get_property(node, "class-code", NULL); wi3 = of_get_property(node, "revision-id", NULL); if (!wi0 || !wi1 || !wi2 || !wi3) { printk(KERN_ERR "PCI: Missing device tree properties.\n"); goto error; } cheers -- Michael Ellerman OzLabs, IBM Australia Development Lab wwweb: http://michael.ellerman.id.au phone: +61 2 6212 1183 (tie line 70 21183) We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children. - S.M.A.R.T Person
