Note, I do not have a sparc compiler at my disposal, so I was not
able to compile (or boot) test this change.
Here's the original code:
static int process_ver_nack(struct ldc_channel *lp, struct ldc_version
*vp)
{
struct ldc_version *vap;
if ((vp->major == 0 && vp->minor == 0) ||
!(vap = find_by_major(vp->major))) {
return ldc_abort(lp);
} else {
struct ldc_packet *p;
unsigned long new_tail;
p = handshake_compose_ctrl(lp, LDC_INFO, LDC_VERS,
vap, sizeof(*vap),
&new_tail);
if (p)
return send_tx_packet(lp, p, new_tail);
else
return ldc_abort(lp);
}
}
And the new code:
static int process_ver_nack(struct ldc_channel *lp, struct ldc_version
*vp)
{
struct ldc_version *vap;
struct ldc_packet *p;
unsigned long new_tail;
if (vp->major == 0 && vp->minor == 0)
return ldc_abort(lp);
vap = find_by_major(vp->major);
if (!vap)
return ldc_abort(lp);
p = handshake_compose_ctrl(lp, LDC_INFO, LDC_VERS,
vap, sizeof(*vap),
&new_tail);
if (!p)
return ldc_abort(lp);
return send_tx_packet(lp, p, new_tail);
}
This should be binary the same. But as I said, I do not have a sparc
compiler to test.
Thanks,
