Subject: [bug report] amd-xgbe: Add PCI device support
Date: Tue, 15 Nov 2016 11:11:02 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161115111102.GA23305@mwanda> (raw)
Hello Lendacky, Thomas,
The patch 47f164deab22: "amd-xgbe: Add PCI device support" from Nov
10, 2016, leads to the following static checker warning:
drivers/net/ethernet/amd/xgbe/xgbe-debugfs.c:360 xprop_reg_value_write()
error: uninitialized symbol 'value'.
drivers/net/ethernet/amd/xgbe/xgbe-debugfs.c
348 static ssize_t xprop_reg_value_write(struct file *filp,
349 const char __user *buffer,
350 size_t count, loff_t *ppos)
351 {
352 struct xgbe_prv_data *pdata = filp->private_data;
353 unsigned int value;
354 ssize_t len;
355
356 len = xgbe_common_write(buffer, count, ppos, &value);
Assume "ppos" is non-zero then we are using uninitialized data. I
suspect that xgbe_common_write() is buggy.
357 if (len < 0)
358 return len;
359
360 XP_IOWRITE(pdata, pdata->debugfs_xprop_reg, value);
361
362 return len;
363 }
regards,
dan carpenter
