Subject: Surprising Code In sound/core/pcm_native.c In Recent Git Tree
Date: Fri, 18 Jul 2008 13:37:10 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <416584.18514.qm@web59516.mail.ac4.yahoo.com> (raw)

Hello everyone!

When i was reading the code in sound/core/pcm_native.c in
recent git tree, i got stuck in  line no 3258. It is something
like this
snd_assert(substream != NULL, goto out);

That (goto statement) surprised me for a while unless i came to
know snd_assert() is a macro (as expected!). Previous version
too had a return statement in it.

The point is that can we have a nicer code? Because this type
of code is sometimes __CONFUSING__.

Thanks :-)
