Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 010/237] powerpc: Fix signedness bug in update_flash_db()
Date: Sat, 16 Nov 2019 10:37:25 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191116154113.7417-10-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191116154113.7417-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>
[ Upstream commit 014704e6f54189a203cc14c7c0bb411b940241bc ]
The "count < sizeof(struct os_area_db)" comparison is type promoted to
size_t so negative values of "count" are treated as very high values
and we accidentally return success instead of a negative error code.
This doesn't really change runtime much but it fixes a static checker
warning.
