Hello Vince Bridgers, The patch 3b57de958e2a: "net: stmmac: Support devicetree configs for mcast and ucast filter entries" from Jul 31, 2014, leads to the following static checker warning: drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac1000_core.c:123 dwmac1000_set_mchash() error: buffer overflow 'mcfilterbits' 2 <= 7 drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac1000_core.c 100 static void dwmac1000_set_mchash(void __iomem *ioaddr, u32 *mcfilterbits, 101 int mcbitslog2) 102 { 103 int numhashregs, regs; 104 105 switch (mcbitslog2) { 106 case 6: 107 writel(mcfilterbits[0], ioaddr + GMAC_HASH_LOW); 108 writel(mcfilterbits[1], ioaddr + GMAC_HASH_HIGH); 109 return; 110 break; These days checkpatch complains about extra unreachable break statements. 111 case 7: 112 numhashregs = 4; 113 break; 114 case 8: 115 numhashregs = 8; 116 break; 117 default: 118 pr_debug("STMMAC: err in setting mulitcast filter\n"); 119 return; 120 break; 121 } 122 for (regs = 0; regs < numhashregs; regs++) 123 writel(mcfilterbits[regs], There is only one caller for this function and mcfilterbits[] only has 2 elements. So neither 4 nor 8 is correct. I don't understand. 124 ioaddr + GMAC_EXTHASH_BASE + regs * 4); 125 } regards, dan carpenter -- 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
