This is already fixed. Patches are in next. There were 3 buggy user of this API. - 1 patch was merged a few days ago in mainline - 2 patches are in next, the maintainer decided to wait for the next merge window commit 687d2de93b11 ("Bluetooth: btmtkuart: fix recv_buf() return value") commit 7954bbcdd7ea ("Bluetooth: btnxpuart: fix recv_buf() return value") commit c8820c92caf0 ("platform/surface: aggregator: fix recv_buf() return value") > > > diff --git a/drivers/tty/serdev/serdev-ttyport.c b/drivers/tty/serdev/serdev-ttyport.c > > index e94e090cf0a1..3d7ae7fa5018 100644 > > --- a/drivers/tty/serdev/serdev-ttyport.c > > +++ b/drivers/tty/serdev/serdev-ttyport.c > > @@ -27,19 +27,17 @@ static size_t ttyport_receive_buf(struct tty_port *port, const u8 *cp, > > { > > struct serdev_controller *ctrl = port->client_data; > > struct serport *serport = serdev_controller_get_drvdata(ctrl); > > - int ret; > > + size_t ret; > > > > if (!test_bit(SERPORT_ACTIVE, &serport->flags)) > > return 0; > > > > ret = serdev_controller_receive_buf(ctrl, cp, count); > > > > - dev_WARN_ONCE(&ctrl->dev, ret < 0 || ret > count, > > - "receive_buf returns %d (count = %zu)\n", > > + dev_WARN_ONCE(&ctrl->dev, ret > count, > > + "receive_buf returns %zu (count = %zu)\n", > > ret, count); > > - if (ret < 0) > > - return 0; > > - else if (ret > count) > > + if (ret > count) > > return count; > > > > return ret; > > So please do not apply this patch until the various implementations have > been fixed. > > Johan
