[PATCH 2/2] mmc: block: Let MMC_IOC_MULTI_CMD return zero again for zero entries

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

 



With gcc 4.1.2:

    drivers/mmc/core/block.c: In function ‘mmc_blk_ioctl_cmd_issue’:
    drivers/mmc/core/block.c:630: warning: ‘ioc_err’ may be used uninitialized in this function

Indeed, if mq_rq->ioc_count is zero, an uninitialized value will be
stored in mq_rq->drv_op_result and passed to blk_end_request_all().

Can mq_rq->ioc_count be zero?
  - mmc_blk_ioctl_cmd() sets ioc_count to 1, so this is safe,
  - mmc_blk_ioctl_multi_cmd() obtains ioc_count from user space in
    response to the MMC_IOC_MULTI_CMD ioctl, and does allow zero.

To avoid returning an uninitialized value, and as it is pointless to do
all this work when the MMC_IOC_MULTI_CMD ioctl is used with zero
entries, check for this early in mmc_blk_ioctl_multi_cmd(), and return
zero, like was returned before.

Fixes: 3ecd8cf23f88d5df ("mmc: block: move multi-ioctl() to use block layer")

Should mmc_blk_ioctl_multi_cmd() return -EINVAL instead for this case?
That would change behavior as seen from userspace, though.

Feel free to fold in the previous patch if deemed appropriate.
