Subject: [patch v3] ALSA: rawmidi: fix the get next midi device ioctl
Date: Wed, 08 Sep 2010 22:11:41 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100908221141.GD3463@bicker> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <alpine.LNX.2.00.1009082325570.6226@eeebox2.perex-int.cz>

If we pass in a device which is higher than SNDRV_RAWMIDI_DEVICES then
the "next device" should be -1.  This function just returns device + 1.

But the main thing is that "device + 1" can lead to a (harmless) integer
overflow and that annoys static analysis tools.

V2:  In the first version I made negative values return -EINVAL
V3:  We shouldn't return -EINVAL for numbers which are too large but
     just set the next device to -1.
