[PATCH] i40e: fix memcpy with swapped arguments

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

 



From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The current code copies an uninitialized params into
cdev->lan_info.params and then passes the uninitialized params
to the call cdev->client->ops->l2_param_change.  I believe the
order of the source and destination in the memcpy is the wrong
way around and should be swapped.

Detected with static analysis by cppcheck

Fixes: 0ef2d5afb12d ("i40e: KISS the client interface")
