[PATCH 3/5] drivers/infiniband: correct size computation

[Julia Lawall]

From: Julia Lawall <julia-dAYI7NvHqcQ@public.gmane.org>

The size argument to ioremap_nocache should be the size of desired
information, not the pointer to it.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:

// <smpl>

x =

Thanks for pointing out the bug.

mmio_regs is initialized to NULL at the top of the function so *mmio_regs wouldn't be
a good idea.  Instead of sizeof(*mmio_regs) use pci_resource_len(pcidev, BAR_0).  If
you can recreate the patch with this change I will ack it.

Thanks,


Chien

When you say that it isn't a good idea, do you mean that the result is 
wrong, or that it looks odd?  I didn't think sizeof looked at the value, 
but only at the type?

I misspoke on the problem.  Mmio_regs is declared as a void pointer:

        void __iomem *mmio_regs = NULL;

Thus pci_resource_len(pcidev, BAR_0) is the correct fix.

OK, thanks for the clarification.  I will make another patch later today.

The size argument to ioremap_nocache should be the size of desired
information, not the pointer to it.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
