From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The initialization of pcc_ss_data from pcc_data[pcc_ss_id] before pcc_ss_id is being range checked could lead to an out-of-bounds array read. This very same initialization is also being performed after the range check on pcc_ss_id, so we can just remove this problematic and also redundant assignment to fix the issue. Detected by cppcheck: warning: Value stored to 'pcc_ss_data' during its initialization is never read Fixes: commit 85b1407bf6d2 ("ACPI / CPPC: Make CPPC ACPI driver aware of PCC subspace IDs") Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/acpi/cppc_acpi.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/acpi/cppc_acpi.c b/drivers/acpi/cppc_acpi.c index 30e84cc600ae..06ea4749ebd9 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/cppc_acpi.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/cppc_acpi.c @@ -1171,7 +1171,7 @@ int cppc_set_perf(int cpu, struct cppc_perf_ctrls *perf_ctrls) struct cpc_desc *cpc_desc = per_cpu(cpc_desc_ptr, cpu); struct cpc_register_resource *desired_reg; int pcc_ss_id = per_cpu(cpu_pcc_subspace_idx, cpu); - struct cppc_pcc_data *pcc_ss_data = pcc_data[pcc_ss_id]; + struct cppc_pcc_data *pcc_ss_data; int ret = 0; if (!cpc_desc || pcc_ss_id < 0) { -- 2.14.1 -- 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
