Ok, this is a bit silly (but also a little fun) :-)

In Documentation/ we have the xterm-linux.xpm image.
Now an XPM image is more or less C code, so I thought it would 
be fun to look at it like that and put on the CodingStyle and 
space use glasses.

I made two changes, none of which change the actual image.
 1) I removed two lines that just had empty comments.
 2) I brought the 'image_name' declaration into line with how 
    we commonly write arrays and pointers.

This saves us an astonishing 12 bytes on the file size ;-)
That's a little less data for every future Linux kernel source 
user to download - that can't be bad.

Ok, ok, so it does have the drawback of being 99,999% churn and 
you could argue that it'll clutter the git history. So if you 
don't apply it I won't hate you (too much) ;-)

Hi,

The Coverity checker noticed that we may overrun a statically allocated 
array in drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_sli.c::lpfc_sli_hbqbuf_find().

The case is this; In 'struct lpfc_hba' we have 

	#define LPFC_MAX_HBQS  4
	...
	struct lpfc_hba {
		...
		struct hbq_s hbqs[LPFC_MAX_HBQS];
		...
	};

But then in lpfc_sli_hbqbuf_find() we have this code 

	hbqno = tag >> 16;
	if (hbqno > LPFC_MAX_HBQS)
		return NULL;

if 'hbqno' ends up as exactely 4, then we won't return, and then this

	list_for_each_entry(d_buf, &phba->hbqs[hbqno].hbq_buffer_list, list) {

will cause an overflow of the statically allocated array at index 4, 
since the valid indices are only 0-3. 

I propose this patch, that simply changes the 'hbqno > LPFC_MAX_HBQS' 
into 'hbqno >= LPFC_MAX_HBQS' as a possible fix.

(Resending old patch originally submitted at 1/7-2007 02:19, 04-Aug-2007 20:31)

In xl_freemem(), if dev_if is NULL, the line
  struct xl_private *xl_priv =(struct xl_private *)dev->priv;
will cause a NULL pointer dereference. However, if we move
that assignment below the 'if' statement that tests for a NULL
'dev', then that NULL deref can never happen.
It never hurts to be safe :-)

NACK

The fix is contained in our 8.2.2 sources recently posted and pushed by James
as part of his last scsi fixes.

I actually did look for it, but couldn't find any lpfc commits with me
listed as author, so I assumed it had not been merged.
I just looked again, at the source this time, up-to-date mainline git
tree, and I still see

        hbqno = tag >> 16;
        if (hbqno > LPFC_MAX_HBQS)
                return NULL;

in drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_sli.c

Ok.... here's what happened,

- We changed the define so that it matched what we are using. We never configure
   more than 4 HBQ, thus the index will never be beyond 0-3. The if-check is actually
   innoculous. Given that the change wasn't your patch, we didn't include you as
   the author.

- Coding-wise, you are right, we still didn't fix the range check.

Since this really is just something to keep the tools happy - I'll recind the NACK.
I'll worry about simply removing this if-check later...

James/Andrew, accept this patch - ACK.

And that's not a problem. I only mentioned it to explain how I
searched for the patch before I resend it.
