Subject: [PATCH 2/4] HID: logitech-hidpp: check name retrieval return code
Date: Thu, 11 Dec 2014 13:51:18 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1418302280-14794-3-git-send-email-peter@lekensteyn.nl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1418302280-14794-1-git-send-email-peter@lekensteyn.nl>
hidpp_devicenametype_get_device_name() may return a negative value on
protocol errors (for example, when the device is powered off).
Explicitly check this condition to avoid a long-running loop.
(0 cannot be returned as __name_length - index > 0, but check for it
anyway as it would otherwise result in an infinite loop.)
