The patch looks great. Just a few small details that could still be improved: > http://lkml.iu.edu//hypermail/linux/kernel/1412.2/00625.html > > Signed-off-by: Chunyan Zhang In general, when you give a mailing list link, use the 'Link' tag under your Signed-off-by line, like Link: http://lkml.iu.edu//hypermail/linux/kernel/1412.2/00625.html It's not used much yet, but getting more popular and seems useful to me. In this particular case, when you have patches that depend on one another, you can make do it even better by sending all three patches as a series with a [PATCH 0/3] cover letter. If the media maintainers can provide an Ack for this patch, I would suggest to queue it up in the y2038 branch together with your first patch that it depends on. > @@ -1191,16 +1168,16 @@ static inline int tv2int(const struct timeval *a, > const struct timeval *b) > */ > static int stabilize(int a, int b, u16 timeout, u16 threshold) > { > - struct timeval ct; > - static struct timeval prev_time = {0, 0}; > - static struct timeval hit_time = {0, 0}; > + ktime_t ct; > + static ktime_t prev_time = {0}; > + static ktime_t hit_time = {0}; > static int x, y, prev_result, hits; > int result = 0; The "= {0}" part here is redundant, since static variables are always initialized to zero. Normally, adding the explicit initializer can help readability, but in this case I would leave it out because it shows implementation details of ktime_t that are better hidden from drivers. > @@ -1596,9 +1573,9 @@ static void imon_incoming_packet(struct imon_context > *ictx, > int i; > u64 scancode; > int press_type = 0; > - int msec; > - struct timeval t; > - static struct timeval prev_time = { 0, 0 }; > + long msec; > + ktime_t t; > + static ktime_t prev_time = {0}; > u8 ktype; Same thing here of course.
