What's the point of this ? There is no "hardcoded array size" there to begin with, and using that silly macro obscures the actual calculation. So now, instead of being able to verify correctness at a glance, I have to go off and research some silly macro and verify that it does the right thing. Kind of like all of those "typedef structs" that are abhored around here. -ml -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

ARRAY_SIZE makes code smaller and prevents subtle bugs in the more complex situations once you learn to always use it. [ Using ARRAY_SIZE you no longer have to verify anything and person looking at the code (which not necessarily is the original author) immediately knows what was the author's intention. ] > I have to go off and research some silly macro and verify that > it does the right thing. You did it already and the macro name is quite descriptive so you may as well just ACK the patch now.. ;)

Obfuscation? Are you saying that just because you wrote this code? So
what is the usage of a macro? I think you are having a defensive
position here.
The macro is self-explanatory, ARRAY_SIZE, so the macro gives you the
*size* of the array. You don't need to know how that is done, if you
want, just go to the declaration of the macro.

It is a standard cleanup for all kernel code, and it does make the code more readable to the casual reader / quick skimmer.

You know, Linus actually invented a command for people who enjoy this game... ;) git blame drivers/ata/sata_mv.c shows each line of code, and metadata about each line such as commit id and author name.

I'm probably just the last chap to change the indentation on it. It really doesn't look like my style to me. ;) There were two authors before me there, and that line looks like one of theirs. :) Cheers -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
