[PATCH v3] i2c: dev: prevent adapter retries and timeout being set as minus value

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

 



If set adapter->retries to minus value from user space via ioctl,
will make __i2c_transfer and __i2c_smbus_xfer jump the calling to
adapter->algo->master_xfer and adapter->algo->smbus_xfer that
registered by the underlying bus drivers, and return value 0 to
all the callers. The bus driver will never be accessed anymore by
all users, besides, the users may still get successful return value
without any error or information log print out.

If set adapter->timeout to minus value from user space via ioctl,
will make the retrying loop in __i2c_transfer and __i2c_smbus_xfer
always break after the the first try, due to the time_after always
returns true.
