Subject: [PATCH] serial: atmel: Fix Spectre v1 vulnerability reported by smatch
Date: Tue, 22 Aug 2023 16:43:21 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230822111321.56434-1-Hari.PrasathGE@microchip.com> (raw)
smatch reports the below spectre variant 1 vulnerability.
drivers/tty/serial/atmel_serial.c:2675 atmel_console_setup() warn: potential spectre issue 'atmel_ports' [r] (local cap)
Fix the same by using the array_index_nospec() to mitigate this
potential vulnerability especially because the console index is
controlled by user-space.
