Date: Tue, 2 Oct 2012 11:30:50 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121002083049.GK12398@elgon.mountain> (raw)

Hello Hans-Frieder Vogt,

The patch 540fd4ba0533: "[media] af9035: add Avermedia Volar HD
(A867R) support" from Apr 2, 2012, leads to the following Clang warning:
	drivers/media/dvb-frontends/af9033.c:467:20: warning: comparison
	of unsigned expression >= 0 is always true
	[-Wtautological-compare]

drivers/media/dvb-frontends/af9033.c
   464                  while (if_frequency > (adc_freq / 2))
                               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
if_frequency is unsigned.  I worry that this loop doesn't handle integer
underflow properly.

   465                          if_frequency -= adc_freq;
   466  
   467                  if (if_frequency >= 0)
                            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is always true.

   468                          spec_inv *= -1;
   469                  else
   470                          if_frequency *= -1;

regards,
dan carpenter
