[PATCH] [PATCH] gpiolib: Fix Oops in gpiod_direction_input_nonotify()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The gpiod_direction_input_nonotify() function is supposed to return zero
if the direction for the pin is input.  But instead it accidentally
returns GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_IN (1) which will be cast into an ERR_PTR()
in gpiochip_request_own_desc().  The callers dereference it and it leads
to a crash.

I changed gpiod_direction_output_raw_commit() just for consistency but
returning GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_OUT (0) is fine.
