From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Nicolas Iooss Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] ASoC: Intel: Atom: add a missing star in a memcpy call Date: Sun, 28 Aug 2016 21:10:04 +0200 Message-ID: <20160828191004.5832-1-nicolas.iooss_linux@m4x.org> Return-path: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org To: Liam Girdwood , Mark Brown , alsa-devel@alsa-project.org, Joe Perches Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org List-Id: alsa-devel@alsa-project.org In sst_prepare_and_post_msg(), when a response is received in "block", the following code gets executed: *data = kzalloc(block->size, GFP_KERNEL); memcpy(data, (void *) block->data, block->size); The memcpy() call overwrites the content of the *data pointer instead of filling the newly-allocated memory (which pointer is hold by *data). Fix this by merging kzalloc+memcpy into a single kmemdup() call. Thanks Joe Perches for suggesting using kmemdup() Fixes: 60dc8dbacb00 ("ASoC: Intel: sst: Add some helper functions") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.19.x Signed-off-by: Nicolas Iooss --- sound/soc/intel/atom/sst/sst_pvt.c | 14 ++++++-------- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/sound/soc/intel/atom/sst/sst_pvt.c b/sound/soc/intel/atom/sst/sst_pvt.c index adb32fefd693..b1e6b8f34a6a 100644 --- a/sound/soc/intel/atom/sst/sst_pvt.c +++ b/sound/soc/intel/atom/sst/sst_pvt.c @@ -279,17 +279,15 @@ int sst_prepare_and_post_msg(struct intel_sst_drv *sst, if (response) { ret = sst_wait_timeout(sst, block); - if (ret < 0) { + if (ret < 0) goto out; - } else if(block->data) { - if (!data) - goto out; - *data = kzalloc(block->size, GFP_KERNEL); - if (!(*data)) { + + if (data && block->data) { + *data = kmemdup(block->data, block->size, GFP_KERNEL); + if (!*data) { ret = -ENOMEM; goto out; - } else - memcpy(data, (void *) block->data, block->size); + } } } out: -- 2.9.3
