Hello Larry Finger,
The patch 7b464c9fa5cc: "staging: r8188eu: Add files for new driver -
part 4" from Aug 21, 2013, leads to the following Smatch warning:
"drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_mlme_ext.c:8328 mlme_evt_hdl()
error: buffer overflow 'wlanevents' 24 <= 24"
8321 /* checking if event code is valid */
8322 if (evt_code >= MAX_C2HEVT) {
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This limit is slightly larger than the number of elements in the
wlanevents[] array.
8323 RT_TRACE(_module_rtl871x_cmd_c_, _drv_err_, ("\nEvent Code(%d) mismatch!\n", evt_code));
8324 goto _abort_event_;
8325 }
8326
8327 /* checking if event size match the event parm size */
8328 if ((wlanevents[evt_code].parmsize != 0) &&
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Off by one.
8329 (wlanevents[evt_code].parmsize != evt_sz)) {
8330 RT_TRACE(_module_rtl871x_cmd_c_, _drv_err_,
8331 ("\nEvent(%d) Parm Size mismatch (%d vs %d)!\n",
8332 evt_code, wlanevents[evt_code].parmsize, evt_sz));
8333 goto _abort_event_;
8334 }
It's not clear to me what the fix is.
regards,
dan carpenter
