Subject: re: add driver for enc28j60 ethernet chip
Date: Fri, 29 Jan 2016 15:04:50 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160129150449.GA20319@mwanda> (raw)
Hello Claudio Lanconelli,
The patch 3ec9c11da033: "add driver for enc28j60 ethernet chip" from
Jan 14, 2008, leads to the following static checker warning:
drivers/net/ethernet/microchip/enc28j60.c:107 spi_read_buf()
error: __memcpy() '&rx_buf[1]' too small (1517 vs 1518)
drivers/net/ethernet/microchip/enc28j60.c
87 static int
88 spi_read_buf(struct enc28j60_net *priv, int len, u8 *data)
89 {
90 u8 *rx_buf = priv->spi_transfer_buf + 4;
91 u8 *tx_buf = priv->spi_transfer_buf;
92 struct spi_transfer t = {
93 .tx_buf = tx_buf,
94 .rx_buf = rx_buf,
95 .len = SPI_OPLEN + len,
96 };
97 struct spi_message msg;
98 int ret;
99
100 tx_buf[0] = ENC28J60_READ_BUF_MEM;
101 tx_buf[1] = tx_buf[2] = tx_buf[3] = 0; /* don't care */
102
103 spi_message_init(&msg);
104 spi_message_add_tail(&t, &msg);
105 ret = spi_sync(priv->spi, &msg);
106 if (ret = 0) {
107 memcpy(data, &rx_buf[SPI_OPLEN], len);
The problem here is that len is sizeof(data) and sizeof(rx_buf), but we
are copying from the SPI_OPLEN (1) byte offset so we're copying beyond
the end of the array.
It's not clear what the correct thing to do is.
108 ret = msg.status;
109 }
110 if (ret && netif_msg_drv(priv))
111 printk(KERN_DEBUG DRV_NAME ": %s() failed: ret = %d\n",
112 __func__, ret);
113
114 return ret;
115 }
regards,
dan carpenter
