Hello Eli Cohen,

The patch 05bdb2ab6b09: "mlx5_core: Fix PowerPC support" from Jan 14,
2014, leads to the following static checker warning:

	drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/pagealloc.c:225 free_4k()
	warn: right shifting to zero

drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/pagealloc.c
   214  static void free_4k(struct mlx5_core_dev *dev, u64 addr)
   215  {
   216          struct fw_page *fwp;
   217          int n;
   218  
   219          fwp = find_fw_page(dev, addr & PAGE_MASK);
   220          if (!fwp) {
   221                  mlx5_core_warn(dev, "page not found\n");
   222                  return;
   223          }
   224  
   225          n = (addr & ~PAGE_MASK) >> MLX5_ADAPTER_PAGE_SHIFT;

Maybe n = addr >> MLX5_ADAPTER_PAGE_SHIFT; was intended?  (Totally
random guess).

   226          fwp->free_count++;
   227          set_bit(n, &fwp->bitmask);


regards,
dan carpenter

No, I need to find the index of the 4K fragment within the system page
(64K in the case of PPC) so I need to mask out the higher bits. I
assume you are seeing this when building on x86. When the system page
size is 4K then n will always equal zero but in the case of larger
page sizes (e.g. ppc), n could have non-zero values.

Ah.  Thanks for the explanation.  This was on x86.
