This kind of memcpy() is error-prone. Its replacement with a struct assignment is prefered because it's type-safe and much easier to read. Found by coccinelle. Hand patched and reviewed. Tested by compilation only. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ identifier struct_name; struct struct_name to; struct struct_name from; expression E; @@ -memcpy(&(to), &(from), E); +to = from; // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Peter Senna Tschudin <peter.senna@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Ezequiel Garcia <elezegarcia@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/media/pci/zoran/zoran_card.c | 3 +-- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/media/pci/zoran/zoran_card.c b/drivers/media/pci/zoran/zoran_card.c index fffc54b..cea325d 100644 --- a/drivers/media/pci/zoran/zoran_card.c +++ b/drivers/media/pci/zoran/zoran_card.c @@ -708,8 +708,7 @@ static const struct i2c_algo_bit_data zoran_i2c_bit_data_template = { static int zoran_register_i2c (struct zoran *zr) { - memcpy(&zr->i2c_algo, &zoran_i2c_bit_data_template, - sizeof(struct i2c_algo_bit_data)); + zr->i2c_algo = zoran_i2c_bit_data_template; zr->i2c_algo.data = zr; strlcpy(zr->i2c_adapter.name, ZR_DEVNAME(zr), sizeof(zr->i2c_adapter.name)); -- 1.7.4.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
