Hi Rongwei,


Thank you for this patch! Looks good to me overall. I left a couple of
nitpicks below, though.

I'd prefer 'if (ret) {', to be consistent with other part.
Hi

In fact, explicit style, such as 'if (ret < 0)', may be more understandable. But I agree with your advice that to be consistent
with other part. And I will update it like your said.

if (targetid_is_pid(ctx))
dbgfs_put_pids(targets, nr_targets);
- ret = err;
- }
+ } else
+ ret = count;

I'd prefer this to have braces:

Agree! I will update here.

Thanks!
