"pvt->ambase" is a u64 datatype. The intent here is to fill the first half in the first call to pci_read_config_dword() and the other half in the second. Unfortunately the pointer math is wrong so we set the wrong data. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> --- v2: Redid it as with a union as Walter Harms suggested. Fixed the same bug in i5400_edac.c as well. v3: Make the struct __packed just in case. I don't have this hardware, so please review carefully. But the original code obviously corrupts memory so my patch could hardly be worse... This was originally sent on Mon, Mar 5, 2012. Btw, there are some Sparse errors in these files. The code looks buggy but I don't know what the intent was. drivers/edac/i5000_edac.c:485:15: warning: right shift by bigger than source value drivers/edac/i5000_edac.c:580:23: warning: right shift by bigger than source value drivers/edac/i5400_edac.c:391:36: warning: right shift by bigger than source value drivers/edac/i5400_edac.c:401:37: warning: right shift by bigger than source value diff --git a/drivers/edac/i5000_edac.c b/drivers/edac/i5000_edac.c index a5c33df..39c6375 100644 --- a/drivers/edac/i5000_edac.c +++ b/drivers/edac/i5000_edac.c @@ -328,7 +328,13 @@ struct i5000_pvt { struct pci_dev *branch_1; /* 22.0 */ u16 tolm; /* top of low memory */ - u64 ambase; /* AMB BAR */ + union { + u64 ambase; /* AMB BAR */ + struct { + u32 ambase_bottom; + u32 ambase_top; + } u __packed; + }; u16 mir0, mir1, mir2; @@ -1131,9 +1137,9 @@ static void i5000_get_mc_regs(struct mem_ctl_info *mci) pvt = mci->pvt_info; pci_read_config_dword(pvt->system_address, AMBASE, - (u32 *) & pvt->ambase); + &pvt->u.ambase_bottom); pci_read_config_dword(pvt->system_address, AMBASE + sizeof(u32), - ((u32 *) & pvt->ambase) + sizeof(u32)); + &pvt->u.ambase_top); maxdimmperch = pvt->maxdimmperch; maxch = pvt->maxch; diff --git a/drivers/edac/i5400_edac.c b/drivers/edac/i5400_edac.c index 50069c6..2772469 100644 --- a/drivers/edac/i5400_edac.c +++ b/drivers/edac/i5400_edac.c @@ -327,7 +327,13 @@ struct i5400_pvt { struct pci_dev *branch_1; /* 22.0 */ u16 tolm; /* top of low memory */ - u64 ambase; /* AMB BAR */ + union { + u64 ambase; /* AMB BAR */ + struct { + u32 ambase_bottom; + u32 ambase_top; + } u __packed; + }; u16 mir0, mir1; @@ -1055,9 +1061,9 @@ static void i5400_get_mc_regs(struct mem_ctl_info *mci) pvt = mci->pvt_info; pci_read_config_dword(pvt->system_address, AMBASE, - (u32 *) &pvt->ambase); + &pvt->u.ambase_bottom); pci_read_config_dword(pvt->system_address, AMBASE + sizeof(u32), - ((u32 *) &pvt->ambase) + sizeof(u32)); + &pvt->u.ambase_top); maxdimmperch = pvt->maxdimmperch; maxch = pvt->maxch; -- 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
