Cover letter [PATCH 0/1] staging: wilc1000: need feedback about a patch
Quoted 10 lines · Rapha?l Beamonte
Hello there,
I just started patching some drivers to familiarize myself better with the kernel and perhaps contribute more to it if I find things that I can actually handle! (hoping I'll be able to handle more and more throughout time).
Doing so, I found out that in the wilc1000 (staging) driver, I got compiler warnings for casts from u32 variables to pointers and pointers to u32 variables.
This driver is known broken in this way, please see the many discussions about this on the driverdevel mailing list as to what the original developers of the code are trying to do to fix this, and attempts for others who are also trying to clean it up in this way.
I'm also not going to take this type of changes from anyone that does not have the hardware to properly test it, do you have the hardware that this driver controls?
thanks,
greg k-h
