Hello Jaska Uimonen, The patch cac974a51ebb: "ASoC: SOF: topology: use set_get_data in process load" from Aug 9, 2019, leads to the following static checker warning: sound/soc/sof/topology.c:1857 sof_process_load() warn: 'ipc_data_size' unsigned <= 0 sound/soc/sof/topology.c 1825 static int sof_process_load(struct snd_soc_component *scomp, int index, 1826 struct snd_sof_widget *swidget, 1827 struct snd_soc_tplg_dapm_widget *tw, 1828 struct sof_ipc_comp_reply *r, 1829 int type) 1830 { 1831 struct snd_sof_dev *sdev = snd_soc_component_get_drvdata(scomp); 1832 struct snd_soc_dapm_widget *widget = swidget->widget; 1833 struct snd_soc_tplg_private *private = &tw->priv; 1834 struct sof_ipc_comp_process *process = NULL; 1835 struct sof_widget_data *wdata = NULL; 1836 size_t ipc_data_size = 0; ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Unsigned. 1837 size_t ipc_size; 1838 int offset = 0; 1839 int ret = 0; 1840 int i; 1841 1842 if (type == SOF_COMP_NONE) { 1843 dev_err(sdev->dev, "error: invalid process comp type %d\n", 1844 type); 1845 return -EINVAL; 1846 } 1847 1848 /* allocate struct for widget control data sizes and types */ 1849 if (widget->num_kcontrols) { 1850 wdata = kcalloc(widget->num_kcontrols, 1851 sizeof(*wdata), 1852 GFP_KERNEL); 1853 1854 if (!wdata) 1855 return -ENOMEM; 1856 1857 /* get possible component controls and get size of all pdata */ 1858 ipc_data_size = sof_get_control_data(sdev, widget, wdata); 1859 1860 if (ipc_data_size <= 0) { The sof_get_control_data() returns negative error codes, but it's also declared as unsigned. But the main reason I'm reporting this instead of fixing it myself (besides laziness) is that I was wondering if it was really handling zero returns correctly. Should we really return success in that situation? 1861 ret = ipc_data_size; 1862 goto out; 1863 } 1864 } 1865 regards, dan carpenter _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
