As far as I know, devm_platform_ioremap_resource() could return NULL which is
not handled by this test (unless __devm_ioremap() semantics changed since I had
a look).

Hi Robert,

In the function __devm_ioremap_resource(), if __devm_ioremap returns NULL,
it will return IOMEM_ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM).

devm_platform_ioremap_resource()
devm_ioremap_resource()
__devm_ioremap_resource()
__devm_ioremap()

static void __iomem *
__devm_ioremap_resource(struct device *dev, const struct resource *res,
enum devm_ioremap_type type)
{
...
dest_ptr = __devm_ioremap(dev, res->start, size, type);
if (!dest_ptr) {
dev_err(dev, "ioremap failed for resource %pR\n", res);
devm_release_mem_region(dev, res->start, size);
dest_ptr = IOMEM_ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
}

return dest_ptr;
}

And also, we can see the comment of devm_ioremap_resource():

Usage example:

res = platform_get_resource(pdev, IORESOURCE_MEM, 0);
base = devm_ioremap_resource(&pdev->dev, res);
if (IS_ERR(base))
return PTR_ERR(base);


Therefore, this patch is incorrect, or rather incomplete.

So I think this patch is correct, do I miss something?

Thanks,
Tiezhu Yang


Cheers.
