OK, I fixed that bug you hinted at earlier in my previous
sleep_for_dev() patch. I am sure you fixed it, but here we go
nonetheless, just in case.
I actually changed it up a bit. It is probably faster to count down
from SECONDS_TO_WAIT_FOR_DEV than count up.
I also made the lone 'path' argument const, since it can be.
Some other misc. bits, too.
static int sleep_for_dev(char *path)
{
char filename[SYSFS_PATH_MAX + 6];
- struct stat buf;
- int loop = 0;
- int retval = -ENODEV;
+ int loop = SECONDS_TO_WAIT_FOR_DEV;
+ int retval;
strcpy(filename, sysfs_path);
strcat(filename, path);
strcat(filename, "/dev");
- while (loop < SECONDS_TO_WAIT_FOR_DEV) {
+ while (loop--) {
+ struct stat buf;
+
dbg("looking for %s", filename);
retval = stat(filename, &buf);
- if (retval == 0) {
- retval = 0;
+ if (!retval)
goto exit;
- }
/* sleep for a second or two to give the kernel a chance to
* create the dev file */
sleep(1);
- ++loop;
}
retval = -ENODEV;
exit:
