[PATCH] scsi: sym53c8xx_2: fix sizeof mismatch

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

 



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

An incorrect sizeof is being used, struct sym_ccb ** is not correct,
it should be struct sym_ccb *. Note that since ** is the same size as
* this is not causing any issues.  Improve this fix by using the
idiom sizeof(*np->ccbh) as this allows one to not even reference the
type of the pointer.

[ Note: this is an ancient 2005 buglet, the sha is from the
  tglx/history repo ]

Addresses-Coverity: ("Sizeof not portable (SIZEOF_MISMATCH)")
Fixes: 473c67f96e06 ("[PATCH] sym2 version 2.2.0")
