[PATCH] powerpc/ipic: Fix a bounds check in ipic_set_priority()

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

 



The ipic_info[] array only has 95 elements so I have made the bounds
check smaller to prevent a read overflow.  It was Smatch that found
this issue:

    arch/powerpc/sysdev/ipic.c:784 ipic_set_priority()
    error: buffer overflow 'ipic_info' 95 <= 127

I wasn't able to find any callers of this code.  Maybe we removed the
last one in commit b9f0f1bb2bca ("[POWERPC] Adapt ipic driver to new
host_ops interface, add set_irq_type to set IRQ sense").  So perhaps we
should just remove it.  I'm not really comfortable doing that myself,
because I don't know the code well enough and can't build test
it properly.
