From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> sizeof(dp) is just the size of the pointer. Change it to the size of the referenced structure. A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression *x; expression f; type T; @@ *f(...,(T)x,...) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> --- arch/mips/alchemy/common/dbdma.c | 4 ++-- 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/mips/alchemy/common/dbdma.c b/arch/mips/alchemy/common/dbdma.c index 4851308..40071bd 100644 --- a/arch/mips/alchemy/common/dbdma.c +++ b/arch/mips/alchemy/common/dbdma.c @@ -612,7 +612,7 @@ u32 au1xxx_dbdma_put_source(u32 chanid, dma_addr_t buf, int nbytes, u32 flags) dma_cache_wback_inv((unsigned long)buf, nbytes); dp->dscr_cmd0 |= DSCR_CMD0_V; /* Let it rip */ au_sync(); - dma_cache_wback_inv((unsigned long)dp, sizeof(dp)); + dma_cache_wback_inv((unsigned long)dp, sizeof(*dp)); ctp->chan_ptr->ddma_dbell = 0; /* Get next descriptor pointer. */ @@ -674,7 +674,7 @@ u32 au1xxx_dbdma_put_dest(u32 chanid, dma_addr_t buf, int nbytes, u32 flags) dma_cache_inv((unsigned long)buf, nbytes); dp->dscr_cmd0 |= DSCR_CMD0_V; /* Let it rip */ au_sync(); - dma_cache_wback_inv((unsigned long)dp, sizeof(dp)); + dma_cache_wback_inv((unsigned long)dp, sizeof(*dp)); ctp->chan_ptr->ddma_dbell = 0; /* Get next descriptor pointer. */ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
