[PATCH v3 8/8] platform: vivid-cec: use 64-bit arithmetic instead of 32-bit

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

 



Add suffix ULL to constant 10 in order to give the compiler complete
information about the proper arithmetic to use. Notice that this
constant is used in a context that expects an expression of type
u64 (64 bits, unsigned).

The expression len * 10 * CEC_TIM_DATA_BIT_TOTAL is currently being
evaluated using 32-bit arithmetic.

Also, remove unnecessary parentheses and add a code comment to make it
clear what is the reason of the code change.

Changes in v2:
 - Update subject and changelog to better reflect the proposed code changes.
 - Add suffix ULL to constant instead of casting a variable.
 - Remove unnecessary parentheses.
 - Add code comment.

Changes in v3:
 - Mention the specific Coverity report in the commit message.
