Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 1/2] staging: rtl8712: fix uninit-value in usb_read8() and friends
Date: Fri, 6 May 2022 10:10:23 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220506071023.GB4031@kadam> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <b9b7a6ee02c02aa28054f5cf16129977775f3cd9.1651760402.git.wanngchenng@gmail.com>

Setting "data = 0" will silence the KMSAN warnings but it doesn't fix
the bug which is that r8712_usbctrl_vendorreq() treats partial reads
as success.

The usb_control_msg() returns negatives on total failure and it returns
small positives on partial failure.  So take the code that I gave you
before and put that into r8712_usbctrl_vendorreq().  That's patch 1.
These patches become 2 and 3.

        status = usb_control_msg();
        if (status < 0)
                goto free;
        if (status != len) {
                status = -EREMOTEIO;
                goto free;
        }
        if (requesttype == 0x01)
                memcpy(pdata, pIo_buf, status);

regards,
dan carpenter
